Use the Bug Report issue template to report a new security vulnerability.
New security issue should follow these guidelines when being created on GitLab.com:
-
Create new issues as
confidentialif unsure whether issue a potential vulnerability or not. It is easier to make an issue that should have been public open than to remediate an issue that should have been confidential. Consider adding the/confidentialquick action to a project issue template. -
Always label as
~securityat a minimum. If you're reporting a vulnerability (or something you suspect may possibly be one) please use the Bug Report template while creating the issue. Otherwise, follow the steps here (with a security label). -
Add any additional labels you know apply. Additional labels will be applied by @xakepnz, but it will help with the triage process:
~"type::bug",~"type::maintenance", or~"type::feature"if appropriate~dependency updateif issue is related to updating to newer versions of the dependencies enterpriseattack requires.
Occasionally, data that should remain confidential, such as the private project contents of a user that reported an issue, may get included in an issue. If necessary, a sanitized issue may need to be created with more general discussion and examples appropriate for public disclosure prior to release.
