2. **DO NOT** discuss the vulnerability in public forums or discussions
3. **DO NOT** post about it on social media
### 📧 Reporting Process
1. **Email us directly** at [security@openaccess-mcp.dev](mailto:security@openaccess-mcp.dev)
2. **Include detailed information** about the vulnerability:
- Description of the issue
- Steps to reproduce
- Potential impact
- Suggested fix (if any)
- Your contact information
### 🔒 What Happens Next
1. **Acknowledgment**: You'll receive an acknowledgment within 48 hours

## Security Response Timeline
- **Critical Issues** (RCE, authentication bypass): 24-48 hours

- **Medium Issues** (information disclosure): 2-4 weeks
- **Low Issues** (minor security improvements): 1-2 months
## Security Features
