I found a possible vulnerability and after reading info on the putty site, it said the best way to let us know is by using an encrypted communications channel. I have no idea how to do that.
Can some one explain? Do I attached something to an email, go to a specific web address?

At the moment, if you have a vulnerability to report in PuTTY, you'd
do best to report it through the HackerOne link in the news section on
the front page, because you can earn a bounty if it's a valid report.

Failing that, the usual approach is to send GPG-encrypted email to the development team, using the secure contact key on the Keys page of the
web site.

OK.
After reading the HackerOne scope, looks like when logged on as a different user, I cannot see the vulnerability.
So, I guess nothing to report.

Thanks!
