Responsible Disclosure

Synthetic Codex Research Lab follows responsible disclosure practices to ensure that any identified security issues are handled safely, discreetly, and constructively for all parties involved.

Testing context

The lab performs security testing exclusively in the following contexts:

  • Systems owned and operated by Synthetic Codex Research Lab
  • Purpose-built research and test environments
  • Platforms participating in formal bug bounty or VDP programs with explicit written authorization

No testing is conducted against arbitrary services, systems, or networks without permission.

Disclosure process

When an issue is identified within an authorized scope:

  • A detailed report is prepared with clear steps to reproduce and impact analysis.
  • No public disclosure occurs without coordination and approval from the affected party.
  • Effort is made to avoid accessing unnecessary data or causing any disruption.

Ethical commitments

  • No deliberate exploitation or misuse of discovered vulnerabilities.
  • No sale or sharing of vulnerability details outside approved channels.
  • Respect for remediation timelines set by vendors or program owners.
