  1. Email: Send a detailed description to the maintainer via GitHub private vulnerability reporting.
  2. Include:
    • A description of the vulnerability and its potential impact
    • Steps to reproduce the issue
    • Any suggested fixes (optional but appreciated)

3.x ⚠️ Critical fixes only
< 3.0 ❌ No longer supported

We recommend always running the latest release available through HACS.

Security Practices

  • Local authentication only — the integration connects directly to your UniFi device's local API. No cloud accounts or third-party services are involved.
  • Credentials stay local — your username and password are stored in Home Assistant's encrypted config entries, never transmitted externally.
  • SSL verification — optional SSL certificate verification is available for environments with trusted certificates.
  • No telemetry — the integration does not collect or transmit usage data.

Scope

This policy covers the custom_components/unifi_network_rules integration code. Issues with the UniFi controller itself, Home Assistant core, or the aiounifi library should be reported to their respective maintainers.
