Project Status

Warning

Bubblewrap Launcher is in early, unstable development. The sandboxing model is not yet hardened and should not be relied on as a security boundary against hostile or utrusted software.

Sandbox isolation is a core goal of this project (see ROADMAP.md), but until the dedicated Bubblewrap-based sandbox backend lands and is verified in v1.0.0, treat any sandboxing as best-effort process isolation, not a hard security guarantee. Don't use this launcher to run software you don't trust at all.

Reporting a vulnerability

This project doesn't have a dedicated security contact or private disclosure process. For now:

  • Open a regular GitHub Issue describing the vulnerability.
  • Tag the issue appropriately with the Security tag.
  • Include:
    • What the issue is and where it lives.
    • Steps to reproduce.
    • Potential impact (e.g. sandbox escape, file access outside expected scope, privilege escalation).
    • Your OS and relevant tool versions (Rust, Node, Firejail, and Wine if applicable).

If the project grows a larger user base, this policy will be updated to support private disclosure.

Supported versions

This project is pre-1.0 and has no formal support matrix yet. Only the latest commit on the default branch is considered for fixes.

Version Supported
0.1.x ✅ (latest only)

Scope

Security reports relevant to this project generally fall into:

  • Sandbox/isolation bypasses.
  • Unsafe handling of game files, imports, or Wine/Proton prefixes.
  • Supply chain issues (e.g. dependency vulnerabilities with real-world exploitability).

General bugs, crashes, or UX issues that aren't security-relevant should go through normal issue reports as per CONTRIBUTING.md, not this policy.

Disclosure expectations

This is a volunteer-driven, early-stage project. There's no guaranteed response time or bug bounty.

Reports will be reviewed and adressed on a best-effort basis as the project and its sandboxing architecture mature.
