Reporting a Vulnerability

If you find a security issue, do not open a public GitHub Issue. Instead, contact the maintainer directly:

Include:

  • A clear description of the issue.
  • Reproduction steps.
  • The specific commit, file, or line if applicable.
  • Your assessment of impact.

We aim to acknowledge reports within 5 business days and respond with a timeline once triaged.

Scope

This repo is a Markdown-first Codex workspace. The security surface is small but real:

  • Instructions Codex follows under .agents/skills/jobs/. A malicious PR could add instructions that exfiltrate resume/profile data, send messages without approval, or take unsafe browser actions.
  • Project rules in AGENTS.md, .docs/, and README.md.
  • Privacy defaults in .gitignore, which protect real resumes, profile files, applications, and outreach logs from accidental commits.
  • Browser workflow instructions, especially anything involving LinkedIn, email, file uploads, or application submission.

If you spot something that could harm a downstream user of this repo, please report it.

What's Out of Scope

  • OpenAI Codex app or Codex Chrome extension vulnerabilities. Report those upstream to OpenAI.
  • LinkedIn's own platform rules or Terms of Service. This repo requires user approval gates, uses the user's browser session, and stops on platform blocks, CAPTCHA, rate limits, or unusual verification prompts.
  • Product-design disagreements that do not create a user-safety or data-exposure issue.
