Security Policy

Supported versions

redink is in alpha. Only the latest main branch is supported. Pin to a tagged release once one is published.

Reporting a vulnerability

If you discover a security issue in redink itself (not in the systems it documents), report it privately:

Please do not file a public issue for security reports.

Scope

In scope for security reports:

  • Prompt-injection vectors via brand-guidelines.md, targets.yaml, framework prompts, folder names, or scan data that cause the plugin to write malicious content into report JSON
  • Path-traversal in the image_path field that could exfiltrate files outside the repo
  • Validator bypass — ways to make cwe-validator, cve-validator, etc., accept a citation that fails official validation
  • Insecure defaults in install.sh, hooks, or any shipped script
  • Framework adapter flaws that cause invalid output to be marked as valid

Out of scope:

  • Bugs in Claude Code itself — report to Anthropic
  • Vulnerabilities you find in your testbed using this plugin — those go in your report, not here
  • The official compliance frameworks themselves (CERT-In RoE, CMMC AG, NCSC CHECK Standard, IRAP CAF, PASSI référentiel, PCI DSS, OWASP OPTRS)

Responsible use

redink is intended for authorized penetration testing engagements where the auditor has written permission to test. Misuse — documenting findings from unauthorized testing, aggregating data on production systems without consent, helping evade disclosure timelines — is not supported.

See DISCLAIMER.md for the full responsible-use position.

Threat model

The plugin assumes:

  • The user (auditor) is authorized to test the targets in targets.yaml
  • The local workspace (PoC screenshots, scan data, credentials) is treated as sensitive
  • Web fetches go only to canonical security sources (MITRE, NVD, FIRST.org)
  • No data is exfiltrated to third-party services

If your workflow violates any of these assumptions, audit your setup before using.
