If you think there's a glaring issue/omission/security issue with the content provided in this repository, please follow the below steps so we can triage accordingly.
We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security issue, please follow these guidelines:
DO NOT create a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.
Instead, please report security issues by emailing devcentralteam (at) f5 dot com with the following information:
- Description: A clear description of the vulnerability
- Impact: The potential impact and severity
- Steps to Reproduce: Detailed steps to reproduce the issue
- Suggested Fix: If you have recommendations (optional)
- Your Contact Information: So we can follow up with questions
After you submit a report, here's what happens:
- Acknowledgment: We'll acknowledge receipt as soon as possible
- Initial Assessment: We'll provide an initial assessment and respond back
- Updates: We'll keep you informed as we investigate and develop a fix
- Resolution: We aim to release updates according to severity
We practice coordinated disclosure:
- We'll work with you to understand and validate the issue
- We'll develop and test a fix
- We'll notify affected users appropriately
- We'll publicly disclose the vulnerability after a fix is available and users have had time to update (typically 30-90 days)
- We'll credit you in our security advisory (unless you prefer to remain anonymous)
While using this project, we recommend:
- Keep your dependencies up to date
- Use the latest supported version
- Monitor our security advisories for updates
Security advisories are published at:
- GitHub Security Advisories: [Link to your GitHub Security tab]
- Mailing List: [Link to security mailing list if you have one]
The following are explicitly out of scope for security reports:
- Issues in outdated/unsupported versions
- Social engineering attacks against our team
- Theoretical vulnerabilities without proof of exploitation
- Vulnerabilities in third-party dependencies (report those upstream)
- Issues requiring extensive user interaction or extremely unlikely scenarios
- Security Issues: devcentral (at) f5 dot com
