Security Policy

Supported Versions

The latest maintained collection for MoleditPy 5 / PySide6 receives security updates. MoleditPy 4 and earlier snapshots, including 2026.10.19-MoleditPy_4, are historical and are not security-maintained. Standalone plugins have their own release and security policies; registry listing does not extend their support period.

Trust and scope

  • Plugins execute Python with the same permissions as MoleditPy and are not sandboxed. Install only code and dependencies from publishers you trust.
  • Plugin Installer SHA-256 verification confirms that each downloaded file is unchanged from the reviewed version recorded in the registry. A mismatch blocks installation, keeping the installed file tied to the version that was reviewed.
  • Reports may concern downloaded code, archive/path handling, molecular-file parsers, external calculation commands, credentials or optional network integrations. Include the plugin ID, version, download URL and enabled features, without sending real credentials or private calculation data.
  • Network-capable plugins can expose local HTTP/MCP services or use remote SSH/API endpoints. Their access controls and binding defaults are part of their security scope; report them to the owning plugin repository as well as this collection when relevant.
