How n8n Handles Vulnerability Disclosure - and Why We Do It This Way

[Closed-source security updates are hidden from attackers, which means the time they need to reverse-engineer a patch is a window for users to safely apply the update. Open-sources security patches are immediately visible and become a roadmap for attackers to target those who haven't updated yet.]

[We currently publish patches and advisories on the same day to minimize the exploitable window. We also develop fixes in private and merge into public only when it's announced.]
