Instead, send a private report to skappafrost@gmail.com.

  3. Release a fix or mitigation as soon as possible
  4. Credit the reporter (with permission) in the release notes

Scope

This project provides configuration files and documentation for running Hermes Agent on GitHub Codespaces. Security concerns include:

  • Exposed authentication credentials in .env or config files
  • Unsecured Tailscale tunnels leaving ports open
  • Codespace idle timeout bypass causing resource exhaustion
  • Data privacy when running AI agents in cloud environments

Best Practices

  • Always use strong, unique passwords for HERMES_DASHBOARD_BASIC_AUTH
  • Set Codespace idle timeout to prevent unnecessary exposure
  • Keep your Tailscale authentication tokens private
  • Never commit .env files or credentials to version control
