Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue for a security problem.

Use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting: https://github.com/ReScienceLab/super-prototyping/security/advisories/new

If that is not possible, email yilin.jing@rescience.com with "super-prototyping security" in the subject.

You will get an acknowledgement within three business days. We aim to confirm and fix a valid report within 30 days and will credit you in the advisory unless you prefer otherwise.

Scope

  • The canvas/ viewer (the code behind https://prototyping.rescience.com).
  • The measuring tools in tools/ and the agent skills in skills/.
  • The generators (gen.py) and boards under mockups/canvases/.

Boards render inside sandboxed <iframe srcdoc> shapes. A report that shows a board escaping that sandbox, reading another origin, or executing code in the viewer's context is in scope. Visual differences between a replica and the app it reproduces are not security issues.

Supported versions

Only the latest release is supported, and main between releases. Releases are tagged super-prototyping--v<version> and listed under Releases; the version in the manifests is what an install of any product compares against, so an older cached version gets no fixes.

What the repository already does

  • main requires a pull request; force pushes and deletion are blocked. Tags cannot be deleted or overwritten.
  • Secret scanning with push protection is on, so credentials cannot be pushed.
  • Actions run with a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN by default; the release workflow requests contents: write and pull-requests: write for its own jobs only. It also needs "Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull requests" — without it the release stops after pushing its branch, which is a safe place to stop.
  • Dependabot opens pull requests for vulnerable and outdated dependencies.
  • CodeQL scans JavaScript, TypeScript and Python on every pull request.
  • Third-party captures (ref-*.html, assets/refs/) are ignored by git and never committed.
