Security: simnJS/hangar-ai

SECURITY.md

Security policy

Supported versions

Only the latest release receives security fixes. The app updates itself, so the fix reaches you once you accept the update.

Version Supported
Latest release (releases/latest) Yes
Anything older No: please update first

Reporting a vulnerability

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

Report it privately through GitHub Security Advisories. Open the repository's Security tab, click Report a vulnerability, and fill in the form. Only the maintainer can see the report.

Please include:

  • the Hangar version and your operating system;
  • what an attacker can do, and what they need first (local access, a malicious repository, a crafted MCP request…);
  • steps to reproduce, or a proof of concept;
  • any fix or mitigation you have in mind.

Hangar is maintained by one person, so please allow some time for an answer. Once the issue is confirmed, a fixed release is published, then the advisory is made public with credit to you, unless you prefer to stay anonymous.

Scope

These are in scope:

  • the desktop app, including its local HTTP API (127.0.0.1, protected by a per-launch token) and the hangar-ai --mcp server;
  • the hangar-bridge Claude Code mod in src-tauri/claude-mod/;
  • the installers, the updater and the release workflow in this repository.

These are out of scope, and should be reported to their own projects:

  • the agent CLIs Hangar launches (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode);
  • what an agent does with the permissions you gave it. Hangar runs agents with your user account and does not sandbox them.
