About this extension

security.txt is a proposed web standard for communicating information about how to get in touch with a vendor regarding a security issue.

This extension is designed to make it faster for security researchers to get in touch with relevant vendors, by searching automatically for the /.well-known/security.txt file (and, as a fallback, the /security.txt file). It then collapses most of the information (save for the contact details), provides helpful warnings, and makes links clickable.

Developer comments

If you've found a security issue, nice job! Email me at jokebookyeye@gmail.com. I'm working on the colour scheme, as well as adding descriptions of the directives to the rendered version to remind you what everything means. In the long term, I might make navigating to security.txt files directly also be prettied up into HTML, and verify security.txt files with the Signature: directive.
