To qualify as a security issue, the bug **must** be reproducible on an official release of Exiv2, via a realistic attack vector. As a general rule, that means it should be possible to trigger the bug by running the `exiv2` command-line application on a malicious input file. Please note that the applications in the `samples` sub-directory are demo applications that are not intended for production use, so we usually do not consider bugs in those applications to be security vulnerabilities. However, if one of the sample applications reveals a legitimate bug in the exiv2 library then we will still consider it as a potential security issue. @@ -37,7 +41,7 @@ Official releases are listed [here](https://github.com/Exiv2/exiv2/releases) (no Team Exiv2 does not back-port security (or any other fix) to earlier releases of the code.
