Reporting

Please do not disclose a vulnerability publicly before a fix is available. Report it through GitHub private vulnerability reporting, if enabled, or contact the repository owner privately. Include reproduction steps and affected versions.

Scope

Portable Notes Web binds to 127.0.0.1 by default. Do not change it to 0.0.0.0 without adding authentication, CSRF controls, stricter validation, TLS through a trusted reverse proxy, and a deployment security review. Keep Python updated and back up data/notes.db.

Privacy First

Portable Notes does not transmit note content externally.

By default the application:

  • Runs only on localhost
  • Stores data locally
  • Does not collect telemetry
  • Does not require accounts
  • Does not send analytics

Users maintain complete ownership of their information.
