We release patches for security vulnerabilities. Which versions are eligible for receiving such patches depends on the CVSS v3.0 Rating:
| Version | Supported | CVSS Rating |
|---|---|---|
| 1.0.x | ✅ | All |
| < 1.0 | ❌ | N/A |
We take the security of ScipyMasterPro seriously. If you believe you have found a security vulnerability, please report it to us as described below.
- ❌ Open a public GitHub issue
- ❌ Disclose the vulnerability publicly before it has been addressed
- ❌ Test the vulnerability on production systems you don't own

## 🔒 Security Best Practices for Users
When using ScipyMasterPro:
1. **Keep Updated**: Always use the latest version
2. **Dependency Scanning**: Run `safety check` on your environment
3. **Isolated Environments**: Use virtual environments
4. **Code Review**: Review any untrusted notebook code before execution
5. **Network Security**: Be cautious when exposing Jupyter/Streamlit to the network
6. **Access Control**: Use authentication when deploying publicly
7. **Input Validation**: Validate all user inputs in custom implementations
8. **Environment Variables**: Don't commit secrets to version control
