| # Security Policy |
| |
| Apache Directory SCIMple follows the [Apache Software Foundation security |
| process](https://www.apache.org/security/). Please read this page before reporting a |
| vulnerability. |
| |
| ## Reporting a Vulnerability |
| |
| **Do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues, pull requests, |
| or discussions.** Public disclosure before a fix is available puts users at risk. |
| |
| Report security issues **privately** by email to **security@apache.org** — the ASF |
| Security Team, who will route the report to the Apache Directory PMC. |
| |
| Please include, as much as you can: |
| |
| - the affected module(s) and version (e.g. `scim-server 1.0.0-M1`), |
| - a description of the issue and its impact, |
| - steps to reproduce or a proof of concept, |
| - any known mitigations. |
| |
| You will receive an acknowledgement of your report. The ASF Security Team and the |
| project maintainers coordinate the fix and disclosure timeline with you; please give |
| us reasonable time to address the issue before any public disclosure. See the ASF |
| guidance for [reporters](https://www.apache.org/security/) for what to expect. |
| |
| ## Security Updates |
| |
| Security fixes are delivered as **patch releases against the latest major release |
| line**. Older major versions do not receive backported security fixes. This refers to |
| patches for the open-source project — there is no commercial support. |
| |
| The project is currently pre-1.0 (most recent release `1.0.0-M1`; development on |
| `1.0.0-SNAPSHOT`), so the latest milestone is the line that receives fixes until |
| `1.0.0` ships. |
| |
| ## Scope |
| |
| SCIMple is a set of **embeddable libraries**, not a turnkey identity server — the |
| integrating application owns authentication, authorization, transport security, input |
| limits, and persistence. What SCIMple does and does not defend against, and how a report |
| is triaged, is defined in [`THREAT_MODEL.md`](THREAT_MODEL.md) (§3 out-of-scope, §9 |
| disclaimed properties, §13 triage dispositions). |
| |
| When you are unsure whether something is in scope, **report it privately anyway** — do |
| not open a public issue. The maintainers will triage it against the threat model. |
