# Security

Restless takes security seriously. By default, it:

- does not access your filesystem in any way.

- only allows GET requests, demanding that the user think about who should be able to work with a given endpoint.

- has `is_debug` as `False` by default.

- wraps JSON lists in an object to prevent exploits.

While no known vulnerabilities exist, all software has bugs & Restless is no exception.

If you believe you have found a security-related issue, please DO NOT SUBMIT AN ISSUE/PULL REQUEST. This would be a public disclosure & would allow for 0-day exploits.

Instead, please send an email to “daniel@toastdriven.com” & include the following information:

- A description of the problem/suggestion.

- How to recreate the bug.

- If relevant, including the versions of your:

  - Python interpreter

  - Web framework

  - Restless

  - Optionally of the other dependencies involved

Please bear in mind that I’m not a security expert/researcher, so a layman’s description of the issue is very important.

Upon reproduction of the exploit, steps will be taken to fix the issue, release a new version & make users aware of the need to upgrade. Proper credit for the discovery of the issue will be granted via the AUTHORS file & other mentions.
