Use the bug report forum there or message me and mark it as a security report.

There is no bug bounty. Good-faith reports are appreciated; fixes land on a best-effort basis for the current main branch.
Conky Studio builds and launches real Conky themes. By design, it will run:
- Shell scripts from themes (
scripts/,start.sh) - Custom Lua and plugin Lua inside Conky (with the same access Conky already has, including process spawning)
Treat themes, plugins, and scripts like any other software you install. Only use sources you trust.
In scope: issues in Conky Studio itself (e.g., unsafe archive extraction, unexpected behaviour beyond the documented trust model).
Out of scope: malicious themes/plugins a user chose to load; bugs in Conky, Qt, or the OS; anything that requires already-compromised local access.
