Security Policy

Scope

This repository is a document-intelligence and extraction engine. It is not a hosted production service.

Security concerns still matter, especially around:

  • unsafe dependency upgrades
  • arbitrary file handling
  • path traversal bugs
  • accidental leakage of private documents
  • misuse of extracted outputs as authoritative legal advice

Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public GitHub issue for a suspected security problem.

Instead, report it privately to the maintainer with:

  • a short description
  • affected files or commands
  • reproduction steps
  • impact assessment
  • any proposed mitigation

What counts as a security issue here

Examples:

  • a script can write outside the repo unexpectedly
  • unsafe handling of untrusted file paths
  • secrets accidentally committed
  • dependency behavior that creates a credible remote-code or data-exfiltration risk

What does not count

Examples:

  • extraction inaccuracy by itself
  • stale insurer/product data by itself
  • disagreements about product recommendations

Those are important quality/product issues, but not necessarily security issues.

Responsible use note

Outputs from this repo should not be treated as legal advice, underwriting advice, or a substitute for insurer-approved current documents.

There aren't any published security advisories
