Proves you have the exploit without leaking it, using SP1 zkVM and Drand tlock.

Strengths
  • •Layers AES, age, Drand tlock, and Sigstore Rekor for verifiable timed disclosure.
  • •Uses SP1 zkVM to prove predicate firing without exposing the witness bytes.
  • •Aligns cryptographic proof with Project Zero's 90-day coordinated disclosure norms.
Weaknesses
  • •Experimental v0.1 status means bundle format and verifier semantics are not stable.
  • •Requires installing SP1 toolchain and Rust, creating friction for non-technical coordinators.
