# Security Policy

**PLEASE DON'T DISCLOSE SECURITY-RELATED ISSUES PUBLICLY, [SEE BELOW](#reporting-a-vulnerability).**

## Reporting a Vulnerability

If you discover a security vulnerability in Pest, please report it privately using one of the following channels:

1. **GitHub Private Vulnerability Reporting** (preferred) — go to the repository's **Security** tab and click **"Report a vulnerability"**. This creates a private advisory visible only to maintainers and provides a structured workflow for triage, fix coordination, and CVE assignment.

2. **Email** — send the details to Nuno Maduro at **enunomaduro@gmail.com**.

All security vulnerabilities will be promptly addressed.
