The ESSENTIAL KAOS team and community take all security bugs in our projects very seriously. Thank you for improving the security of our project. We appreciate your efforts and responsible disclosure and will make every effort to acknowledge your contributions.
Report security bugs by emailing our security team at [email protected].
The security team will acknowledge your email within 48 hours and will send a more detailed response within 48 hours, indicating the next steps in handling your report. After the initial reply to your report, the security team will endeavor to keep you informed of the progress towards a fix and full announcement, and may ask for additional information or guidance.
Report security bugs in third-party dependencies to the person or team maintaining the dependencies.
When the security team receives a security bug report, they will assign it to a primary handler. This person will coordinate the fix and release process, involving the following steps:
- Confirm the problem and determine the affected versions;
- Audit code to find any similar potential problems;
- Prepare fixes for all releases still under maintenance. These fixes will be released as fast as possible.
