# Security Policy
|
|
|
|
## Supported Versions
|
|
|
|
We provide security updates to the development branch and the stable
|
|
branches. Security patches for old releases are available on the
|
|
[project website](https://xz.tukaani.org/xz-utils/).
|
|
|
|
## Reporting a Vulnerability
|
|
|
|
If you discover a security vulnerability in this project, please
|
|
report it privately. **Do not disclose it as a public issue.** This gives
|
|
us time to work with you to fix the issue before public exposure, reducing
|
|
the chance that the exploit will be used before a patch is released.
|
|
|
|
You may submit a report by emailing us at
|
|
[xz@tukaani.org](mailto:xz@tukaani.org), or through
|
|
[Security Advisories](https://github.com/tukaani-project/xz/security/advisories/new).
|
|
While both options are available, we prefer email. In any case, please
|
|
provide a clear description of the vulnerability including:
|
|
|
|
- Affected versions of XZ Utils
|
|
- Estimated severity (low, moderate, high, critical)
|
|
- Steps to recreate the vulnerability
|
|
- All relevant files (core dumps, build logs, input files, etc.)
|
|
|
|
This project is maintained by a team of volunteers on a reasonable-effort
|
|
basis. As such, please give us 90 days to work on a fix before
|
|
public exposure.
