veriscrape computes trust verdicts from untrusted page content, so a parsing or classification bug can affect downstream data pipelines. If you find a security issue, please email san64777@gmail.com instead of opening a public issue. I will acknowledge within a few days and work with you on a fix and a disclosure timeline.
veriscrape is a deterministic library. It fetches a URL and classifies the response from status, headers, and body. It runs no untrusted code and makes no network calls beyond the fetch you ask for. Realistic concerns:
- A crafted page that makes the classifier crash, hang, or consume excessive memory or CPU.
- A way to make
classifyreturn a confident wrong verdict that a caller would trust (note: returningUNVERIFIEDwhen unsure is by design, not a bug).
The classifier being wrong on some page is a detection report, not a vulnerability. Please open a normal issue with a non-sensitive reproduction.
The latest released version on PyPI receives fixes.
