# Security Policy
2+
3+
If you discover a security-related issue, please report it based on the instructions below.
4+
5+
## Reporting a Vulnerability
6+
7+
Please **DO NOT** file a public issue, instead report the vulnerability on the relevant
8+
[GitHub security](https://github.com/CESNET/libnetconf2/security) page. If you do not receive any reaction within 48 hours,
9+
please also send an email to [[email protected]].
10+
11+
## Review Process
12+
13+
After receiving the report, an initial triage and technical analysis is performed to confirm the report and determine
14+
its scope. We may request additional information in this stage of the process.
15+
16+
Once a reviewer has confirmed the relevance of the report, a draft security advisory will be created on GitHub. The
17+
draft advisory will be used to discuss the issue with maintainers, the reporter(s), and where applicable, other affected
18+
parties under embargo.
19+
20+
If the vulnerability is accepted, a timeline for developing a patch, public disclosure, and patch release will be
21+
determined. If there is an embargo period on public disclosure before the patch release, the reporter(s) are expected to
22+
participate in the discussion of the timeline and abide by agreed upon dates for public disclosure.
23+
24+
Usually, the reasonably complex issues are fixed within hours of being reported.
25+
26+
## Supported Versions
27+
28+
After an issue is fixed, it **WILL NOT** be backported to any released version. Instead, it is kept in the public `devel`
29+
branch, which is periodically merged into the main branch when a new release is due. So, the issue will be fixed in the
30+
next release after it is fixed.
