scvelo-rs is on the 0.1.x line. Security fixes will be applied to the
latest minor and shipped as patch releases. Older minors are not
backported.
Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security reports. Email the maintainer directly:
- Ilay Kavitzky - ilay.kavitzky@gmail.com
Reasonable expectations:
- Acknowledgement within 7 days.
- Triage and a plan within 14 days.
- A coordinated disclosure timeline if the fix is non-trivial.
scvelo-rs is a numerical kernel - it processes user-supplied arrays and
sparse matrices, not network input. The realistic threat surface is:
- Memory-safety bugs in the Rust kernels (panics, out-of-bounds, use-after-free)
- Arithmetic overflows that produce silently wrong results
- Build-supply-chain compromises (Cargo or PyPI dependencies)
Anything in those categories qualifies. Numerical drift vs upstream scVelo is a parity issue, not a security one - please use the parity issue template for those.
