pytest-print had no threat model, so whether a report is a vulnerability or a bug was decided case by case at triage. 🛡️ This adds a threat model and rewrites the security policy around it, so a reporter and a maintainer reach the same verdict from the same page.
The threat model lists what pytest-print trusts, the untrusted inputs with the guarantee pytest-print makes for each, the STRIDE threats and their controls, the release chain, severity ratings, accepted risks, and a table of example reports with their verdicts. The boundary follows comparable tools in other ecosystems: Vitest (JavaScript), Jest (JavaScript), Mocha (JavaScript). The shared rule is the one the Node.js threat model states: a report that first needs a trusted element compromised is a bug, not a vulnerability.
.github/SECURITY.mdkeeps the existing reporting channels and adds response targets, the supported-versions rule and the in-scope and out-of-scope lists. Every repository in this rollout except pipx, virtualenv and build gets the same layout in its own draft PR.The duplicate root
