OpenSSF-template-shaped policy covering supported versions, reporting
channels (private email primary; GitHub Security Advisories on the
mirror as a structured-coordination secondary), response timeline, the
embargo+disclosure flow, CVE assignment process, and in-scope vs
out-of-scope examples.
Closes the NIST SI-5 (vulnerability disclosure) gap from the
federal-readiness gap analysis. Useful for every customer, federal
or not — formalizes the "where do I report this" question that
otherwise goes unanswered.
Out-of-scope examples explicitly enumerate the documented behaviors
that reporters sometimes mistake for vulnerabilities (email-header
forgery via direct bind-address connection; anonymous info disclosure
on /; apps: URL-fetch trust). Saves both reporter and maintainer time.
