Reporting a Vulnerability

Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues, pull requests, or the Discord server.

Instead, use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting:

  1. Go to the repository's Security tab.
  2. Click Report a vulnerability.
  3. Provide a description, reproduction steps, affected version, and impact.

We aim to acknowledge a report within a few days and will keep you updated on the fix and disclosure timeline. Once a fix is released, we are happy to credit you in the advisory unless you prefer to remain anonymous.

Scope

Beutl ships Beutl.FFmpegWorker as a separate GPL-licensed process that is reached only via IPC (Beutl.FFmpegIpc). Vulnerabilities in FFmpeg itself should be reported upstream to the FFmpeg project; report issues in Beutl's IPC layer or process handling here.

Extensions are distributed through Beutl accounts. If you discover a malicious or vulnerable published extension, report it through the same private channel above so we can take it down.
