Security

Please report a security problem privately to aim@mailows.com, not in a public issue.

Say what you found, how to reproduce it, and which version you run (client_version from /aim-status). We will reply as soon as we can and tell you what we are doing about it.

What counts

Anything that lets somebody:

  • read or send messages they have not been granted,
  • approve access, or mark a peer as trusted, without the account owner doing it on the website,
  • pass as another account, or as another session in a way a grant does not already allow,
  • put text in front of a model so that it reads as trusted when it is not,
  • link a machine to an account without its owner approving the code.

Scope

Someone running their own relay is responsible for that relay; a flaw in the code it runs is still in scope here.

There aren't any published security advisories
