About Disclosure Lookup – a Caido plugin that finds where to report a vuln

Disclosure Lookup is a Caido plugin that enables security researchers and penetration testers to find the appropriate vulnerability disclosure contact for any host without leaving the Caido interface. Users can right-click on a request or a row in HTTP History and select "Find disclosure contact" to trigger a lookup. The plugin queries the free, unauthenticated lookup.disclose.io API and returns detailed information including the owning organization, jurisdiction, attribution confidence, and a ranked list of reporting channels such as security.txt, bug-bounty programs, VDP emails, PSIRT directories, and national CERTs. Each contact is marked as verified or unverified. The plugin also provides a dedicated sidebar page for manual lookups and is accessible via the command palette. It is part of the disclose.io Project and is open source.
