Security Policy

MS Community Plugins (MSCP) runs inside Milestone XProtect™: recording servers, event servers, and operator clients. We take security seriously and appreciate responsible disclosure.

Supported versions

Only the latest release receives security fixes. There is no back-porting to older versions. Please update to the newest release before reporting an issue.

Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue for security vulnerabilities.

Report privately through GitHub's Private Vulnerability Reporting:

  1. Go to the Security tab of the repository.
  2. Click Report a vulnerability.
  3. Describe the issue, affected component/version, and steps to reproduce.

This opens a private channel visible only to the maintainers. If you cannot use GitHub, reach out via the Discord and ask a maintainer to open a private advisory, and do not post details publicly.

What to include

  • Affected plugin / driver / installer and version.
  • A clear description of the impact (what an attacker can do).
  • Steps to reproduce or a proof of concept.
  • Any relevant logs, configuration, or environment details.

Our commitment

  • We aim to acknowledge a report within 3 business days.
  • We aim to provide an initial assessment within 7 business days.
  • We practice coordinated disclosure: we fix the issue, publish a GitHub Security Advisory, and credit the reporter (unless you prefer to remain anonymous).
  • Confirmed fixes ship in the next release and are noted in the Changelog as Security entries.

Scope

In scope: all plugins, device drivers, standalone applications, and the installer in this repository.

Out of scope: vulnerabilities in Milestone XProtect™ itself (report those to Milestone Systems), and issues that require physical access or pre-existing administrative compromise of the host.

Thank you for helping keep the community safe.
