Description Jan Zerebecki 2024-04-18 14:00:36 UTC
Not sure if this is the right component/product... I have previously asked this similarly via mail, so trying here to not let it drop off the table again:

Can we agree to consider the following as security bugs?:

In scope:
Any source services available in Factory, when no explicit argument like "insecure" is enabled (so a program can find and count them, an exhaustive list of those exception labels will be later defined in source_validator).
If a bug is found that makes the output not reproducible or verification of downloads is not cryptographically secure, it is categorised as a security bug to be fixed.

Out of scope, for now:
How those services are used in packages.

For larger context see:

Comment 1 Johannes Segitz 2024-05-15 12:07:19 UTC
We discussed that a bit further via email. To make it explicit:
This only applies to packages that use source services. This doesn't make it mandatory to use them.

As discussed in the team: Going forward we will treat issues like the one described by Jan as a security issue
