Reporting a Vulnerability

Do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.

Instead, please report them privately using one of the following methods:

1. GitHub Private Vulnerability Reporting (preferred)

Use GitHub's built-in private reporting:

Report a vulnerability

2. Email

Send details to the maintainer directly. You can find contact information on the @I4cTime GitHub profile.

What to Include

When reporting, please provide:

  • Description of the vulnerability and its potential impact.
  • Steps to reproduce or a proof of concept.
  • Affected version(s) of mineui_server_utils.
  • Environment details (Forge or Paper, Minecraft/server version, Java version, containerized or bare metal).
  • Suggested fix, if you have one.

Response Timeline

Stage Timeframe
Acknowledgement Within 48 hours
Initial assessment Within 7 days
Fix or mitigation Varies by severity
Public disclosure After a fix is released

Scope

The following areas are in scope for security reports:

  • HTTP API authentication — bypasses of the bearer-token check, timing side channels in token comparison, or the API binding to a non-loopback address without a token configured.
  • server.properties filtering — leakage of rcon.password, rcon.port, query.port, or other sensitive keys via /properties or /status.
  • Container stats reader — path traversal or unintended host filesystem access via the cgroup interface (/sys/fs/cgroup) reader.
  • Forge and Paper adapters — any way an unauthenticated request reaches server internals, or a way a request from one dimension/world context leaks data across server boundaries.
  • Build supply chain — compromised Gradle plugins/dependencies, or GitHub Actions running with excess permissions.

Out of Scope

  • Vulnerabilities in upstream dependencies (report those to the respective project — Forge, Paper/Bukkit, etc.).
  • Issues requiring physical or already-authenticated admin access to the server host.
  • Social engineering attacks.

Recognition

We're happy to credit security researchers in the release notes and CHANGELOG unless you prefer to remain anonymous. Let us know your preference when reporting.
