Security Policy

Please do not disclose exploitable vulnerabilities in public issues. Report them privately to the repository maintainers with a reproduction, affected version, impact, and proposed mitigation.

Telemetry & Context Security Model

Nexss Observability intercepts application contexts and attaches trace correlation metadata across boundaries:

  • PII and Sensitive Data: Do not pass unmasked credentials, tokens, or personal identifiers into span attributes or log fields.
  • Trace Propagation: Outbound HTTP clients wrapped via httptrace.WrapClient inject W3C standard traceparent headers. Ensure target upstream services are trusted before distributing correlation contexts.
  • Health Probes: Readiness probes exposed by HealthHandler() should not leak confidential infrastructure details in failure payloads.
