We actively maintain and provide security updates for the following versions:

We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security vulnerability in this quantum zero-knowledge proof implementation, please follow responsible disclosure practices.

For security vulnerabilities, please do NOT create a public GitHub issue.

Instead, please report security issues privately to:

Security Contact: Nicolas Cloutier Email: [email protected] Subject: [SECURITY] Quantum ZKP Vulnerability Report

Please include the following information in your security report:

1. Description: Clear description of the vulnerability
2. Impact: Potential security impact and affected components
3. Reproduction: Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
4. Proof of Concept: Code or demonstration (if applicable)
5. Suggested Fix: Proposed solution (if you have one)
6. Disclosure Timeline: Your preferred disclosure timeline

• Initial Response: Within 48 hours of report
• Vulnerability Assessment: Within 7 days
• Fix Development: Timeline depends on severity
• Public Disclosure: Coordinated with reporter

This implementation deals with cryptographic security, so we pay special attention to:

1. Information Leakage: Ensuring zero-knowledge property is maintained
2. Soundness: Preventing proof forgery attacks
3. Post-Quantum Security: Resistance to quantum computer attacks
4. Side-Channel Attacks: Timing, memory, and other side channels
5. Implementation Security: Buffer overflows, injection attacks, etc.

• Zero Information Leakage: Proven through comprehensive testing
• Configurable Soundness: 32-256 bit security levels
• Post-Quantum Cryptography: Dilithium signatures, quantum-resistant hashes
• Secure Random Generation: Cryptographically secure randomness
• Memory Safety: Go's memory safety features

We maintain comprehensive security testing including:

• Information Leakage Analysis: Automated detection of secret exposure
• Soundness Verification: Mathematical proof validation
• Performance Security: Timing attack resistance
• Fuzzing: Input validation and edge case testing
• Static Analysis: Code security scanning

Security updates will be:

1. Prioritized: Security fixes take precedence over features
2. Tested: Thoroughly tested before release
3. Documented: Clear changelog and impact assessment
4. Coordinated: Responsible disclosure timeline followed

We appreciate security researchers who help improve the security of quantum cryptographic systems. Responsible disclosure helps protect all users.
