Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue for a security problem. Report it privately through GitHub's private vulnerability reporting.

Include what you found, how to reproduce it and which version you used. You will get an answer within 7 days. Once a fix is released, the advisory is published with credit to you unless you prefer otherwise.

What Nokta touches

Useful context when you look for problems:

  • noktad runs as your user, never as root, and listens only on your session bus.
  • It reads ~/.config/nokta/config.toml and writes to ~/.cache/nokta/.
  • It makes HTTPS requests to lrclib.net for lyrics (unless turned off) and downloads cover art from the web addresses media players provide, up to 5 MB each.
  • The GNOME extension runs inside GNOME Shell. It makes no network requests and reads no files except the cover art paths the daemon gives it.
