For a bug that is non-sensitive and/or operational in nature rather than a critical vulnerability, please add it as a GitHub issue.
Please report critical security vulnerabilities to [email protected]. Please avoid opening a public issue on the repository for critical security issues.
The Injective Labs team will send a response indicating the next steps in handling your report. After the initial reply to your report, the team will keep you informed of the progress towards remediation and may ask for additional information or guidance.
In addition, please include the following information along with your report:
- Your name and affiliation (if any).
- A description of the technical details of the vulnerabilities. It is very important to let us know how we can reproduce your findings.
- An explanation of who can exploit this vulnerability, and what they gain when doing so -- write an attack scenario. This will help us evaluate your report quickly especially if the issue is complex.
- Whether this vulnerability is public or known to third parties. If it is, please provide details.
If you believe that an existing (public) issue is a critical-security-related issue, please email * *[email protected]**. The email should include the issue ID and a short description of why it should be handled according to this critical security policy.
If you have found an issue with the Cosmos SDK or Tendermint modules not found in this repo you can report them through links found here. https://tendermint.com/security/
Alternately you can also notify us of a security issue through, Discord or Telegram, and alert the core engineers:

We ask security researchers to keep vulnerabilities and communications around vulnerability submissions private and confidential until a patch is developed. In addition to this, we ask that you:
- Allow us a reasonable amount of time to correct or address security vulnerabilities.
- Avoid exploiting any vulnerabilities that you discover.
- Demonstrate good faith by not disrupting or degrading Injective's services.
When the security team receives a security bug report, they will assign it to a primary handler. This person will co-ordinate the fix and release process, involving the following steps:
- Confirm the problem and determine the affected versions.
- Audit code to find any potential similar problems.
- Prepare fixes for all releases still under maintenance.
This process can take some time. Every effort will be made to handle the bug in as timely a manner as possible. However, it's important that we follow the process described above to ensure that disclosures are handled consistently and to keep Injective and the projects running on it secure.
