Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public issue for security problems. Use GitHub’s private vulnerability reporting (“Security” tab → “Report a vulnerability”) on the Nilog repository. Include the affected version, a minimal reproduction and the impact you expect. You can expect an acknowledgement within 7 days.

Scope and responsibilities

Nilog is a call-site extension layer over Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.

Concern Owner
Bounded template cache, bounded exception reports, isolation of throwing ToString() Nilog
Redaction of secrets/PII in arguments and exception messages The application
Log-forging protection (newline/control characters in values), encoding, retention The provider / sink
Exceptions thrown by providers’ Log implementation The provider (they propagate)
Templates must be compile-time constants; never build templates from untrusted input The application (analyzer NILOG001/NILOG003 helps)

Exception.Data is intentionally not rendered in exception reports.

Supply chain

  • GitHub Actions are pinned to commit SHAs; workflows default to read-only permissions.
  • NuGet restore uses lock files (packages.lock.json) with --locked-mode in CI.
  • Package signing and SBOM publication are release-time procedures that require maintainer credentials; they are not performed by the repository automatically.
