SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+: + +Handling of security vulnerabilities +==================================== + +The U-Boot project takes security very seriously. As such, we'd like to know +when a security bug is found so that it can be fixed and disclosed as quickly +as possible. + +Contact +------- + +The preferred initial point of contact is to send email to +`u-boot@lists.denx.de` and use `scripts/get_maintainers.pl` to also include any +relevant custodians. In addition, Tom Rini should be contacted at +`trini@konsulko.com`. + +CVE assignment +-------------- + +The U-Boot project cannot directly assign CVEs, nor do we require them for +reports or fixes, as this can needlessly complicate the process and may delay +the bug handling. If a reporter wishes to have a CVE identifier assigned ahead +of public disclosure, they will need to coordinate this on their own. When +such a CVE identifier is known before a patch is provided, it is desirable to +mention it in the commit message if the reporter agrees. + +Non-disclosure agreements +------------------------- + +The U-Boot project is not a formal body and therefore unable to enter any +non-disclosure agreements. |
