Only the latest released version of ZeeCrypt is supported with security fixes. Older versions, and volumes encrypted with them, may not be compatible with the latest release — see Changelog.md for breaking changes between versions.
Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.
Instead, use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting for this repository:
- Go to the Security tab
- Click Report a vulnerability
This opens a private conversation with the maintainer that isn't visible to the public until it's resolved.
If you'd rather not use GitHub's reporting tool, you can contact @TheZeekA directly.
Please include:
- A description of the vulnerability and its potential impact
- Steps to reproduce it, or a proof of concept if possible
- The version of ZeeCrypt affected
You should expect an initial response within a few days. There's no bug bounty program, but you'll be credited (if you'd like) once a fix is released.
ZeeCrypt is designed for the offline security of encrypted volumes and assumes the host machine it runs on is trusted — see the Security section of the README and Internals.md for the threat model and known limitations (including PCC-004, an already-documented low-severity issue). Reports about that specific documented limitation don't need to be filed again, but new findings are always welcome.
