## Reporting a Security Bug

If you think you have discovered a security issue in any of the Hyperledger projects, we'd love to
hear from you. We will take all security bugs seriously and if confirmed upon investigation we will
patch it within a reasonable amount of time and release a public security bulletin discussing the
impact and credit the discoverer.

There are two ways to report a security bug. The easiest is to email a description of the flaw and
any related information (e.g. reproduction steps, version) to
[security at hyperledger dot org](mailto:[email protected]).

The other way is to file a confidential security bug in our
[JIRA bug tracking system](https://jira.hyperledger.org). Be sure to set the “Security Level” to
“Security issue”.
The other way is to file a confidential security bug in the repository's [security advisories page](https://github.com/hyperledger/firefly/security/advisories). Guidance can be found in the GitHub documentation on [privately reporting a security vulnerability](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/security-advisories/guidance-on-reporting-and-writing/privately-reporting-a-security-vulnerability).

The process by which the Hyperledger Security Team handles security bugs is documented further in
our [Defect Response page](https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/SEC/Defect+Response) on our
[wiki](https://wiki.hyperledger.org).
