Grail Atlas — Responsible Disclosure Policy
DRAFT. Counsel-review pending. Once approved, this becomes the permanent home of the disclosure policy and is linked from /.well-known/security.txt.
Last updated: 2026-05-19 (draft)
Our promise
If you find a security vulnerability in Grail Atlas, please tell us. We will:
- Acknowledge your report within 72 hours.
- Provide a remediation timeline within 7 days.
- Keep you updated on progress at a cadence we agree on.
- Credit you publicly (with your consent) once the issue is resolved.
- Not pursue legal action against good-faith research that follows this
policy.
Scope
In scope:
- The
grailatlas.comweb application (Next.js front-end, API routes). - The Grail Atlas Supabase project (
sgzrlnnkuvyypsbvfbwf.supabase.co),
but only in ways that don't compromise other users' data.
- The GitHub repository and CI/CD pipeline.
Out of scope:
- Social-engineering attacks against Grail Atlas staff, contractors, or
users.
- Denial-of-service testing against production.
- Physical attacks against Grail Atlas property.
- Issues in third-party services (Supabase, Vercel, GitHub) — report
directly to them.
Safe-harbor terms
Research that follows this policy is authorized under our terms. Specifically:
- You may probe the application using standard security tools.
- You may create test accounts (but please use realistic, throwaway data —
no real PII other than your own).
- You may NOT access, modify, exfiltrate, or destroy data belonging to
other users.
- You may NOT publicly disclose the vulnerability until we have agreed on
a release date — typically 90 days after report.
What to report
We are particularly interested in:
- Authentication or session-management flaws.
- Authorization / RLS bypass — getting at another user's portfolio,
saved searches, owner reports, or seller-dossier data.
- Server-side code injection (SQL, OS command, template).
- SSRF against internal endpoints or cloud metadata.
- Stored XSS in any UGC surface (signals, owner reports, comments).
- Sensitive data exposure (logs, error messages, browser storage).
- Defects in the score-audit-trail integrity (canonical-JSON hash
collisions, replayable input forgery).
What's NOT a vulnerability for our purposes
- Missing security headers on legacy paths that don't accept user input.
- Self-XSS or vulnerabilities requiring physical access to a user's device.
- Click-jacking on pages without authenticated actions (we enforce
frame-ancestors 'none' regardless).
- Username enumeration via timing — we run constant-time comparisons
on every auth path; documented timing differences below 10ms are considered noise.
- Issues that only affect outdated browsers (>2 years old).
How to report
Email security@grailatlas.com. Include:
- A clear description of the vulnerability.
- A proof-of-concept (the smallest one that demonstrates the issue).
- Your assessment of the impact.
- Your name (if you'd like credit) and how to reach you.
If you'd like to use PGP, we'll publish a key once the program graduates out of draft. In the meantime, we accept reports over plain email and follow up over a channel you choose.
Hall of fame
The first ten researchers who report a valid, fixable vulnerability are listed here once the issue is closed (with consent). We don't currently run a paid bounty — we plan to graduate to one after the first 25,000 monthly visitors.
