-<h3>Reporting a Security Bug</h3>
+<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>
-Please report to us any issues you find.
-This document explains how to do that and what to expect in return.
+ This document explains the Go Security team's process for handling issues
+ reported and what to expect in return.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Reporting a Security Bug</h2>
+
+<p>
+ All security bugs in the Go distribution should be reported by email to
+ <a href="mailto:security@golang.org">security@golang.org</a>. This mail is
+ delivered to the Go Security team.
</p>
<p>
-All security bugs in the Go distribution should be reported by email to
-<a href="mailto:security@golang.org">security@golang.org</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.
+ To ensure your report is not marked as spam,
+ <strong>please include the word "vulnerability"</strong> anywhere in your
+ email. Please use a descriptive subject line for your report email.
</p>
<p>
-To ensure your report is not marked as spam, please include the word "vulnerability"
-anywhere in your email. Please use a descriptive subject line for your report email.
+ Your email will be acknowledged within 7 days, and you'll be kept up to date
+ with the progress until resolution. Your issue will be fixed or made public
+ within 90 days. If you have not received a reply to your email within 7 days,
+ please follow up with the Go security team directly at
+ <a href="mailto:security@golang.org">security@golang.org</a>.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Tracks</h2>
+
+<p>
+ Depending on the nature of your issue, it will be categorized by the Go
+ security team as an issue in the PUBLIC, PRIVATE, or URGENT track. All
+ security issues will be issued CVE numbers.
+</p>
+
+<h3>PUBLIC</h3>
+<p>
+ Issues in the PUBLIC track affect niche configurations, have very limited
+ impact, or are already widely known.
</p>
<p>
-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.
+ PUBLIC track issues are <strong>fixed in public</strong>, and get backported
+ to the next scheduled
+ <a href="https://golang.org/wiki/MinorReleases">minor releases</a>
+ (which occur ~monthly). The release announcement includes details of these
+ issues, but there is no pre-announcement.
</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>
-
+<p>Examples of past PUBLIC issues include:</p>
<ul>
-<li>Primary security coordinator: <a href="mailto:filippo@golang.org">Filippo Valsorda</a>.</li>
-<li>Secondary coordinator: <a href="mailto:agl@golang.org">Adam Langley</a>.</li>
-<li>If you receive no response, mail <a href="mailto:golang-dev@googlegroups.com">golang-dev@googlegroups.com</a> or use the <a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/golang-dev">golang-dev web interface</a>.</li>

-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.

-<h3>Flagging Existing Issues as Security-related</h3>
+<h3>PRIVATE</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:security@golang.org">security@golang.org</a>.
-The email should include the issue ID and a short description of why it should
-be handled according to this security policy.
+ Issues in the PRIVATE track are violations of committed security properties.
</p>
-<h3>Disclosure Process</h3>
+<p>
+ PRIVATE track issues are
+ <strong>fixed in the next scheduled
+ <a href="https://golang.org/wiki/MinorReleases">minor releases</a>
+ </strong>,
+ and are kept private until then.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ Three to seven days before the release, a pre-announcement is sent to
+ golang-announce, announcing the presence of a security fix in the upcoming
+ releases, and whether the issue affects the standard library, the toolchain,
+ or both (but not disclosing any more details).
+</p>
+
+<p>Some examples of past PRIVATE issues include:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <a href="https://golang.org/issue/42552">#42552</a>:
+ math/big: panic during recursive division of very large numbers
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <a href="https://golang.org/issue/34902">#34902</a>:
+ net/http: Expect 100-continue panics in httputil.ReverseProxy
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <a href="https://golang.org/issue/39360">#39360</a>:
+ crypto/x509: Certificate.Verify method seemingly ignoring EKU requirements
+ on Windows
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <a href="https://golang.org/issue/34960">#34960</a>:
+ crypto/dsa: invalid public key causes panic in dsa.Verify
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <a href="https://golang.org/issue/34540">#34540</a>:
+ net/http: invalid headers are normalized, allowing request smuggling
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <a href="https://golang.org/issue/29098">#29098</a>:
+ net/url: URL.Parse Multiple Parsing Issues
+ </li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3>URGENT</h3>
+
+<p>
+ URGENT track issues are a threat to the Go ecosystem’s integrity, or are being
+ actively exploited in the wild leading to severe damage. There are no recent
+ examples, but they would include remote code execution in net/http, or
+ practical key recovery in crypto/tls.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ URGENT track issues are fixed in private, and
+ <strong>trigger an immediate dedicated security release</strong>, possibly
+ with no pre-announcement.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Flagging Existing Issues as Security-related</h2>
+
+<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:security@golang.org">security@golang.org</a>. The email should
+ include the issue ID and a short description of why it should be handled
+ according to this security policy.
+</p>
+
+<h2>Disclosure Process</h2>
<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>.
