Where to report

The one public program Harbor runs.

Amounts are the top reward per severity in the currency each program pays. First response is the platform's measured average when it publishes one, else what the policy promises.

What is in scope

16 targets. 6 excluded.

  • https://goharbor.io

    Web

  • Authentication across the local database, LDAP and Active Directory, and OIDC, plus session handling and the CLI secret

    Products and areas

  • Content trust and signature verification, covering Notary and Cosign, and the deployment security policy that enforces it

    Products and areas

  • Proxy cache projects, which pull through to an upstream registry on a request from a client

    Products and areas

  • Replication rules and every registry adapter, including Docker Hub, Quay, ECR, GCR, ACR, Artifactory and Harbor-to-Harbor

    Products and areas

  • Robot accounts: their creation, the scopes attached to them, token issuance and how those tokens are checked on each request

    Products and areas

  • SECURITY.md asks for private reports to [email protected] and declares no boundary narrower than Harbor itself. Everything below sits inside that

    Products and areas

  • Tag retention rules, immutability rules and the garbage collection that acts on them

    Products and areas

  • The core API in full and the whole registry surface it fronts, including the paths the portal does not use

    Products and areas

  • The job service and its API, the quota accounting, and the database and Redis interactions behind all of it

    Products and areas

  • The OCI distribution API paths, manifest and index handling, layer upload and download, and how Harbor proxies these to the storage backend

    Products and areas

  • The portal UI and every place it renders repository, tag, description or scan content

    Products and areas

  • The preheat and peer-to-peer distribution integration

    Products and areas

  • The project and role model end to end, covering limited guest, guest, developer, maintainer, project admin and system admin, and every operation each may perform

    Products and areas

  • The vulnerability scanner integration, the scan job flow and the report storage behind it

    Products and areas

  • Webhooks and every other outbound request Harbor makes to an operator-supplied URL

    Products and areas

No target matches. Try part of a host name, such as the company name.

Out of scope 6

Don't test these. A program can exclude a host another program covers; the program you report to decides.

  • A project an operator deliberately made public, or a robot account they deliberately gave broad scope

  • Harbor distributions repackaged by vendors, which have their own advisory streams

  • The container runtimes and Kubernetes clusters that pull from Harbor

  • The images stored in Harbor, whose contents are the publisher's responsibility

  • The object storage backend Harbor is configured against, which belongs to that provider

  • Trivy, Notary and Cosign as upstream projects, unless Harbor's integration is what makes the defect reachable
