Reporting a Vulnerability

The CAM Protocol team takes security vulnerabilities seriously. We appreciate your efforts to responsibly disclose your findings and will make every effort to acknowledge your contributions.

To report a security issue, please email security@cam-protocol.com with a description of the issue, the steps you took to create it, affected versions, and if known, mitigations. We will respond as quickly as possible to your report.

Please DO NOT file a public GitHub issue about security vulnerabilities.
