Security Policy

Reporting a vulnerability

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

Report it privately through GitHub: open the repository's Security tab and choose Report a vulnerability. You will get an acknowledgement within a week. Fixes ship on main and in the next tagged release, and the advisory is published once a fix is available.

What counts

The parts of this repository that run on a learner's machine:

  • skills/tutor/scripts/tutor.py: scaffolds curriculum files into a workspace and mutates state files there. Anything that lets a crafted curriculum or workspace write outside the workspace, follow symlinks it should not, or execute code during init, sync, or status is in scope.
  • check.sh graders and exercise tests: these run the learner's own code by design. A grader that executes something other than the learner's exercise, or that reaches the network without saying so in the lesson, is in scope.
  • SKILL.md and TUTOR.md files: prompt content that would make the tutor exfiltrate learner data or act outside the workspace is in scope.

What does not count

Lessons deliberately contain insecure code, fake credentials, and vulnerable patterns as teaching material, most visibly in the security lesson. Those are not vulnerabilities in this project. Findings in the third-party tools the curriculum teaches (Go, Docker, Kubernetes, Postgres) belong upstream.
