 MeshCore now supports a range of LoRa devices, allowing for easy flashing without the need to compile firmware manually. Users can flash a pre-built binary using tools like Adafruit ESPTool and interact with the network through a serial console.
-MeshCore provides the ability to create wireless mesh networks, similar to Meshtastic and Reticulum but with a focus on lightweight multi-hop packet routing for embedded projects. Unlike Meshtastic, which is tailored for casual LoRa communication, or Reticulum, which offers advanced networking, MeshCore balances simplicity with scalability, making it ideal for custom embedded solutions., where devices (nodes) can communicate over long distances by relaying messages through intermediate nodes. This is especially useful in off-grid, emergency, or tactical situations where traditional communication infrastructure is unavailable.

+# Security Policy
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+Security fixes are applied to the latest release only. We do not backport
+fixes to older versions.
+
+| Version | Supported |
+|---------|-----------|
+| 1.15+ | ✅ |
+| <1.15 | ❌ |
+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+**Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.**
+
+Use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting instead:
+1. Go to the **Security** tab of this repository
+2. Click **Report a vulnerability**
+3. Fill in the details and submit
+
+### What to include
+
+A useful report tells us:
+- Which component or file is affected
+- What an attacker can do (impact) and under what conditions
+- A minimal reproduction case or proof-of-concept if you have one
+- Whether you believe it is remotely exploitable
+
+You do not need a working exploit to report. An incomplete report is better
+than no report.
+
+## What to expect
+
+This is a volunteer-maintained open-source project. We will do our best to
+respond in a reasonable timeframe, but cannot commit to specific deadlines.
+
+We ask that you give us a fair opportunity to investigate and address the
+issue before any public disclosure. If you have not heard back after
+**90 days**, feel free to follow up or proceed with disclosure at your
+discretion.
+
+## Scope
+
+In scope:
+- Remote code execution, memory corruption, or denial-of-service via crafted
+  radio packets
+- Authentication or encryption bypasses
+- Vulnerabilities in the packet routing or path handling logic
+
+Out of scope:
+- Physical access attacks (e.g., JTAG, UART extraction of keys)
+- Regulatory compliance (duty cycle, frequency restrictions)
+- Jamming or other physical-layer radio interference
+- Issues in third-party libraries (RadioLib, Crypto, etc.) — report those
+  upstream
+- "Best practice" suggestions without a demonstrated attack path

This has been happening recently in some meshes when there is just a single 'bad' repeater firmware out there (probably some forked or custom firmware). If the payload is messed with, then forwarded, the same packet ends up causing a packet storm, repeated up to the max 64 hops. This feature was added in firmware 1.14
 
 **Example:** If preference is `loop.detect minimal`, and a 1-byte path size packet is received, the repeater will see if its own ID/hash is already in the path. If it's already encoded 4 times, it will reject the packet.  If the packet uses 2-byte path size, and repeater's own ID/hash is already encoded 2 times, it rejects. If the packet uses 3-byte path size, and the repeater's own ID/hash is already encoded 1 time, it rejects.

+#### Define region hierarchy (single line)
+**Usage:**
+- `region def <token> [<token> ...]`
+
+**Parameters (tokens):** Space-separated. A logical **cursor** starts at the wildcard `*`.
+
+- **`name`** — Create `name` as a child of the current cursor (equivalent to `region put name` with the cursor as parent). Cursor moves to `name`.
+- **`name|jump`** *(or `name,jump`)* — Create `name` as a child of the current cursor, then move the cursor to `jump` (must already exist on the node, or have been created earlier in this command). `jump` is **not** the parent of `name`; use this form to pop back up and start another branch.
+
+**Behavior:** Each created region defaults to flood-allowed (same as `region put`). The reply is the resulting region tree (same format as bare `region`); review it before running `region save` to persist. On error, the reply is `Err - ...` and any regions placed before the failure remain on the node, just like a partial chain of `region put`.
+
+**Existing regions:** `region def` does not clear the existing tree — if a name already exists, its parent is updated to the current cursor; otherwise a new region is created. To start from scratch, `region remove` the unwanted regions first.
+
+**Limits:** Repeater serial accepts one line up to **160 characters**. For larger trees, split across multiple `region def` commands; the cursor resets to `*` between commands, so lead the next command with `child|ancestor` to reposition. Each token splits at most once on `|` — `region def a|b|c|d` is not a flat-list shorthand; see the flat-list example below.
+
+**Example — linear chain** (each token becomes a child of the previous):
+```
+region def a b c d e
+region save
+```
+
+**Example — branched tree** (equivalent to `region put a`, `region put b a`, `region put c b`, `region put d c`, `region put e b`, `region put f e`):
+```
+region def a b c d|b e f
+region save
+```
+
+**Example — error and partial state:**
+```
+region def a b c|nope d
+```
+The reply is `Err - unknown jump: nope`. `a`, `b`, and `c` were placed before the failure; `d` was not. Run `region` to inspect, then re-run with a corrected jump or repair with `region remove` / `region put`.
+
+**Example — flat list** (each region a child of `*`). Use `|*` after each token to pop the cursor back to the root before the next token:
+```
+region def a|* b|* c|* d|* e|* f
+region save
+```

 **Important**: For boards with a voltage divider on the battery sense pin, LPCOMP measures the divided voltage. Use:
 `VBAT_threshold ≈ (VDD * fraction) * divider_scale`, where `divider_scale = (Rtop + Rbottom) / Rbottom` (e.g., 2.0 for 1M/1M, 2.5 for 1.5M/1M, 3.0 for XIAO).

 The plaintext contained in the ciphertext matches the format described in [plain text message](#plain-text-message). Specifically, it consists of a four byte timestamp, a flags byte, and the message. The flags byte will generally be `0x00` because it is a "plain text message". The message will be of the form `<sender name>: <message body>` (eg., `user123: I'm on my way`).
