Reporting a Vulnerability

Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.

If you discover a security vulnerability, open a GitHub Security Advisory in the Security tab of this repository. Include as much detail as possible to help reproduce and understand the scope of the issue.

What to Include

When reporting a vulnerability, please provide:

  • A clear description of the issue and its potential impact
  • Steps to reproduce the vulnerability
  • Affected version(s)
  • Any known workarounds or mitigations

Response SLA

Milestone Target time
Initial acknowledgment Within 3 business days
Severity assessment Within 7 business days
Fix or mitigation plan Communicated after assessment
Public disclosure Coordinated with reporter after fix

Disclosure Policy

We follow a coordinated disclosure model:

  1. Reporter submits vulnerability privately.
  2. Maintainers confirm receipt and begin assessment.
  3. A fix or mitigation is developed and validated.
  4. A patch release is issued.
  5. A security advisory is published after affected users have had reasonable time to update.

We ask that reporters refrain from publicly disclosing the vulnerability until we have issued a fix and coordinated the disclosure timeline.

Scope

This policy covers the ControlDesk MCP Server source code and its distributed package artifacts. It does not cover third-party dependencies (report those to their respective maintainers) or the dSPACE ControlDesk product itself (contact dSPACE support for product-level issues).

Out of Scope

The following are not considered security vulnerabilities for this project:

  • Issues that require physical access to a machine where ControlDesk is installed
  • Vulnerabilities in dependencies not introduced or modified by this project
  • COM automation behaviors that are by-design Windows platform features
