The go-tuf community is committed to maintaining a reliable and consistent TUF client implementation. If you believe you have identified a security issue in go-tuf's client protocol, please follow these guidelines for responsible disclosure.

You may report issues for the most recent version of go-tuf. We will not retroactively make changes to older versions.

If you discover a potential security issue in this project we ask that you notify the go-tuf maintainers via Github's private reporting feature (requires being signed in to GitHub). At the minimum, the report must contain the following:

• A description of the issue.
• A specific version or commit SHA of go-tuf where the issue reproduces.
• Instructions to reproduce the issue.

Please do not create a public GitHub issue or pull request to submit vulnerability reports. These public trackers are intended for non-time-sensitive and non-security-related bug reports and feature requests. Major feature requests, such as design changes to the specification, should be proposed via a TUF Augmentation Protocol (TAP).

This project follows a 90 day disclosure timeline.
