In case your modifications either
please first create an issue on GitHub or create a thread on the CivetWeb discussion group, to discuss the planned changed.
In case you think you found a security issue that should be evaluated and fixed before public disclosure, feel free to write an email. Although CivetWeb is a fork from Mongoose from 2013, the code bases are different now, so security vulnerabilities of Mongoose usually do not affect CivetWeb. Open an issue for Mongoose vulnerabilities you want to have checked if CivetWeb is affected.
