Rabbit Chain Security Policy

Supported versions

Rabbit Chain is currently preparing its public testnet. Only binaries attached to releases in the official rabbitmainnet/rabbit-geth repository are distributed by the project.

Preview builds are pre-release software and must not be treated as a mainnet release.

Reporting a vulnerability

Do not open a public issue containing a vulnerability, exploit, private key, seed phrase, password, server credential, or other sensitive information.

Report security issues privately using GitHub Security Advisories.

Please include:

  • affected commit, tag, or release;
  • affected component and operating system;
  • steps to reproduce;
  • expected and observed behavior;
  • potential impact;
  • proof of concept, if safe to share privately.

Do not test an exploit against public infrastructure or other users. Use an isolated environment and fresh test-only keys.

Release verification

Before running Rabbit software:

  1. download only from the official GitHub releases page;
  2. verify the archive against SHA256SUMS.txt or its individual .sha256 file;
  3. run rabbit-core --check before starting;
  4. confirm the official Chain ID and genesis hash;
  5. confirm that the release tag points to the announced source commit.

Rabbit Testnet identity:

  • Chain ID: 9280 (0x2440)
  • Network ID: 9280
  • Genesis SHA-256: 8562725483c8e139083d2858ff1c10cec0e1d09bc399439d5022d4cad9e5a4a7

Key safety

  • Never share a seed phrase, raw private key, keystore password, JWT secret, SSH key, or server credential.
  • Keep mining wallets separate from wallets holding significant value.
  • Store encrypted keystore backups offline.
  • Public RPC endpoints must not expose personal, admin, debug, authenticated RPC, or IPC.
  • Rabbit Core binds its local JSON-RPC endpoint to 127.0.0.1 by default.

Upstream reports

Historical go-ethereum audit reports retained in this repository cover upstream components only. They are not audits of Rabbit Chain's LCQ consensus, Rabbit Work V1, registry, rewards, vesting, or release infrastructure.
