If you have encountered a potential security vulnerability in this project, please report it to us at [email protected] and not via an GitHub issue.

We will work with you to verify the vulnerability, build a patch, validate
the fix, and finally issue a public report.

When reporting issues, please provide the following information:

• Component(s) affected
• A description indicating how to reproduce the issue
• A summary of the security vulnerability and impact

We request that you contact us via the email address above and give the project contributors a chance to resolve the vulnerability and issue a new release prior to any public exposure; this helps protect the project's users, and provides them with a chance to upgrade and/or update in order to protect their applications.

If we verify a reported security vulnerability, our policy is:

• We will patch the current release branch, as well as the immediate prior minor release branch.

• After patching the release branches, we will immediately issue new security fix releases for each patched release branch.

• A security advisory will be released on the project website detailing the vulnerability, as well as recommendations for end-users to protect themselves. Security advisories will be listed on the project wiki.
