Security Policy

GroveShell is pre-alpha software that runs unelevated, user-mode processes alongside Explorer. It does not currently install any global input hooks, elevated broker, or driver.

Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security reports. Instead, open a private security advisory on this repository (GitHub Security Advisories) or contact the maintainer directly if that isn't available yet. Include reproduction steps, affected version/commit, and impact.

We aim to acknowledge reports within 5 business days. Given the project's pre-alpha status, fixes are not guaranteed on any particular timeline, but all reports will be triaged and tracked.

Scope notes

  • Named-pipe IPC is local-only and not intended to be reachable remotely.
  • Window titles, executable paths, and other window metadata are treated as untrusted input throughout the codebase (see docs/PROJECT_PLAN.md §12).

There aren't any published security advisories
