Security Policy

Supported Versions

Version Supported
Latest 0.5.x release (and main) ✅ All fixes, including security fixes, land here
Older releases, including final Tauri builds (≤ 0.5.3) ❌ No backports — upgrade (Tauri migration guide)

Model supply chain

VoiceStudio supports models from public, verifiable sources only (Hugging Face repos, official project releases). Privately sold or gated model files are not supported: an archive from a private source can carry anything (bundled executables, modified configs), and nobody else can verify or reproduce it. Treat any privately distributed model file as an untrusted download, and never run executables bundled with model archives.

Reporting a Vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue for security vulnerabilities.

Instead, report them privately via one of these channels:

  1. GitHub Security Advisories (preferred) — Report a vulnerability
  2. Email — Send details to security@voicestudio.sh

What to include

  • Description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to reproduce
  • Potential impact
  • Suggested fix (if you have one)

Response timeline

Step Timeline
Acknowledgment Within 48 hours
Initial assessment Within 5 business days
Fix or mitigation Within 30 days (critical), 90 days (non-critical)
Public disclosure After fix is released, coordinated with reporter

Scope

VoiceStudio runs 100% locally by default. The primary attack surface is:

  • Network exposure — if the user binds to 0.0.0.0 without a reverse proxy
  • Model downloads — fetched from Hugging Face Hub over HTTPS
  • Dependency supply chain — Python/npm packages
  • File handling — audio/video uploads processed by FFmpeg, torchaudio, etc.

Out of scope

  • Vulnerabilities in upstream dependencies (PyTorch, FFmpeg, etc.) — report those upstream
  • Issues requiring physical access to the machine
  • Social engineering attacks

Automated scanning

Every pull request and push to main runs .github/workflows/security.yml:

  • gitleaks — secret scanning (fails CI on a leaked credential)
  • CodeQL — Python + JavaScript/TypeScript static analysis → Security tab
  • bandit — Python static analysis → Security tab
  • pip-audit / bun audit — dependency advisory checks (reporting)

Pull requests are additionally reviewed by the CodeRabbit and Greptile GitHub Apps on creation.

Security Best Practices for Users

  • Do not expose VoiceStudio beyond loopback without authentication. The API is unauthenticated on loopback by default. Before remote access, set OMNIVOICE_API_KEY (or enable the in-app share PIN for LAN guests) as described in API authentication, and use TLS through a reverse proxy or a private network such as Tailscale.
  • Keep your installation updated. The desktop app auto-checks for updates via the built-in updater.
  • Review model sources. Only download models from trusted Hugging Face repositories.
