Please do not open a public issue for a security vulnerability.
Use a private GitHub security advisory for this repository when available. Include:
- A clear description of the issue.
- Reproduction steps using temporary or synthetic files.
- The affected macOS and Tilly versions.
- The potential impact.
Do not include personal filenames, account names, private paths, or application data in reports.
Tilly is designed to be conservative:
- It moves files to Trash instead of permanently deleting them.
- It validates paths before deletion.
- It protects critical filesystem roots.
- It avoids privileged shell commands.
- It does not send filesystem paths or scan results over the network.
- Shared group containers are not selected automatically.
- Protected locations are inspected only when needed for the selected application.
If a discovery result appears unrelated, do not delete it. Report the path and association type using a synthetic example where possible.
