Security Policy and Reporting a Vulnerability

stellar-cli-docker falls under the Stellar Development Foundation's bug bounty program.

To report a security problem and review the details of the program, see the Stellar bug bounty program.

Scope

The artifact this repository produces — the published stellar/stellar-cli Docker images — is in scope.

The build and release tooling (scripts/ and .github/workflows/) is not in scope. The publishing path that ships images runs only after a reviewed merge or with repository write access, and the values these scripts act on come from builds.json (changed only via reviewed pull requests), version-pinned GitHub Actions, repository variables/secrets set by admins, or a maintainer's own command-line arguments.

Findings that assume control over a script's arguments or over a repo-controlled file — argument injection, path traversal via path flags, or crashes on malformed input — therefore cross no privilege boundary and are out of scope.

The ci.yml workflow does run on pull_request, so an unprivileged fork can have its own checked-out files (such as builds.json) processed by scripts like validate_json.py. Those runs execute with a read-only token and no repository secrets, and cannot publish or alter an image. A report against this tooling is only considered if it shows such genuinely untrusted input reaching a script with concrete impact on a published image or on the CI runner's secrets.
