<h3>Reporting a Security Bug</h3>

<p>
Please report to us any issues you find.
This document explains how to do that and what to expect in return.
</p>

<p>
All security bugs in the Go distribution should be reported by email to
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>.
This mail is delivered to a small security team.
Your email will be acknowledged within 24 hours, and you'll receive a more
detailed response to your email within 72 hours indicating the next steps in
handling your report.
For critical problems, you can encrypt your report using our PGP key (listed below).
</p>

<p>
Please use a descriptive subject line for your report email.
After the initial reply to your report, the security team will endeavor to keep
you informed of the progress being made towards a fix and full announcement.
These updates will be sent at least every five days.
In reality, this is more likely to be every 24-48 hours.
</p>

<p>
If you have not received a reply to your email within 48 hours or you have not
heard from the security team for the past five days please contact the Go
security team directly:
</p>

<ul>
<li>Primary security coordinator: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Filippo Valsorda</a> (<a href="https://keybase.io/filippo/pgp_keys.asc">public key</a>).</li>
<li>Secondary coordinator: <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Adam Langley</a> (<a href="https://www.imperialviolet.org/key.asc">public key</a>).</li>
<li>If you receive no response, mail <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> or use the <a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-dev">golang-dev web interface</a>.</li>
</ul>

<p>
Please note that golang-dev is a public discussion forum.
When escalating on this list, please do not disclose the details of the issue.
Simply state that you're trying to reach a member of the security team.
</p>

<h3>Flagging Existing Issues as Security-related</h3>

<p>
If you believe that an <a href="https://golang.org/issue">existing issue</a>
is security-related, we ask that you send an email to
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>.
The email should include the issue ID and a short description of why it should
be handled according to this security policy.
</p>

<h3>Disclosure Process</h3>

<p>The Go project uses the following disclosure process:</p>

<ol>
<li>Once the security report is received it is assigned a primary handler.
This person coordinates the fix and release process.</li>
<li>The issue is confirmed and a list of affected software is determined.</li>
<li>Code is audited to find any potential similar problems.</li>
<li>If it is determined, in consultation with the submitter, that a CVE-ID is
required, the primary handler obtains one via email to
<a href="https://oss-security.openwall.org/wiki/mailing-lists/distros">oss-distros</a>.</li>
<li>Fixes are prepared for the two most recent major releases and the head/master
revision. These fixes are not yet committed to the public repository.</li>
<li>A notification is sent to the
<a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-announce">golang-announce</a>
mailing list to give users time to prepare their systems for the update.</li>
<li>Three working days following this notification, the fixes are applied to
the <a href="https://go.googlesource.com/go">public repository</a> and a new
Go release is issued.</li>
<li>On the date that the fixes are applied, announcements are sent to
<a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-announce">golang-announce</a>,
<a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-dev">golang-dev</a>, and
<a href="https://groups.google.com/group/golang-nuts">golang-nuts</a>.
</ol>

<p>
This process can take some time, especially when coordination is required with
maintainers of other projects. Every effort will be made to handle the bug in
as timely a manner as possible, however it's important that we follow the
process described above to ensure that disclosures are handled consistently.
</p>

<p>
For security issues that include the assignment of a CVE-ID,
the issue is listed publicly under the
<a href="https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-14185/Golang.html">"Golang" product on the CVEDetails website</a>
as well as the
<a href="https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/search">National Vulnerability Disclosure site</a>.
</p>

<h3>Receiving Security Updates</h3>

<p>
The best way to receive security announcements is to subscribe to the
<a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-announce">golang-announce</a>
mailing list. Any messages pertaining to a security issue will be prefixed
with <code>[security]</code>.
</p>

<h3>Comments on This Policy</h3>

<p>
If you have any suggestions to improve this policy, please send an email to
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> for discussion.
</p>

<h3>PGP Key for <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a></h3>

<p>
We accept PGP-encrypted email, but the majority of the security team
are not regular PGP users so it's somewhat inconvenient. Please only
use PGP for critical security reports.
</p>
