# Security Policy
If you have discovered 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 the report in the following ways:
- send an email to security@libarchive.de; and/or
- send us a [private vulnerability report](https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/security/advisories/new)
Please provide the following information in your report:
- A description of the vulnerability and its impact
- How to reproduce the issue
While we welcome all reports, we can act most quickly if the report
includes a complete libarchive test case and a proposed fix.
See [doc/WRITING_TESTS.md](doc/WRITING_TESTS.md) for guidance on creating a reproduction test case.
You can provide the test case and proposed fix as separate patch files
prepared with `git format-patch` or `git diff`.
This project is maintained by volunteers on a reasonable-effort basis.
We ask that you give us 90 days to work on a fix before public exposure.
