The SELinux Userspace Security Vulnerability Handling Process
===============================================================================
https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux
This document attempts to describe the processes through which sensitive
security relevant bugs can be responsibly disclosed to the SELinux userspace
project and how the project maintainers should handle these reports. Just like
the other SELinux userspace process documents, this document should be treated
as a guiding document and not a hard, unyielding set of regulations; the bug
reporters and project maintainers are encouraged to work together to address
the issues as best they can, in a manner which works best for all parties
involved.
### Reporting Problems
For serious problems or security vulnerabilities in the SELinux kernel code
please refer to the SELinux Kernel Subsystem Security Policy in the link below:
* https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux-kernel/blob/main/SECURITY.md
Problems with the SELinux userspace that are not suitable for immediate public
disclosure should be emailed to the current SELinux userspace maintainers, the
list is below. We typically request at most a 90 day time period to address
the issue before it is made public, but we will make every effort to address
the issue as quickly as possible and shorten the disclosure window.

### Resolving Sensitive Security Issues
Upon disclosure of a bug, the maintainers should work together to investigate
the problem and decide on a solution. In order to prevent an early disclosure
of the problem, those working on the solution should do so privately and
outside of the traditional SELinux userspace development practices. One
possible solution to this is to leverage the GitHub "Security" functionality to
create a private development fork that can be shared among the maintainers, and
optionally the reporter. A placeholder GitHub issue may be created, but details
should remain extremely limited until such time as the problem has been fixed
and responsibly disclosed. If a CVE, or other tag, has been assigned to the
problem, the GitHub issue title should include the vulnerability tag once the
problem has been disclosed.
### Public Disclosure
Whenever possible, responsible reporting and patching practices should be
followed, including notification to the linux-distros and oss-security mailing
lists.
