Django's development team is strongly committed to responsible reporting and disclosure of security-related issues. As such, we've adopted and follow a set of policies which conform to that ideal and are geared toward allowing us to deliver timely security updates to the official distribution of Django, as well as to third-party distributions.
Short version: please report security issues by emailing security@djangoproject.com.
Most normal bugs in Django are reported to our public Trac instance, but due to the sensitive nature of security issues, we ask that they not be publicly reported in this fashion.
Instead, if you believe you've found something in Django which has security
implications, please send a description of the issue via email to
security@djangoproject.com
. Mail sent to that address reaches the security
team.
Once you've submitted an issue via email, you should receive an acknowledgment from a member of the security team within 48 hours, and depending on the action to be taken, you may receive further followup emails.
Sending encrypted reports
If you want to send an encrypted email (optional), the public key ID for
security@djangoproject.com
is 0xfcb84b8d1d17f80b
, and this public
key is available from most commonly-used keyservers.
At any given time, the Django team provides official security support for several versions of Django:
When new releases are issued for security reasons, the accompanying notice will include a list of affected versions. This list is comprised solely of supported versions of Django: older versions may also be affected, but we do not investigate to determine that, and will not issue patches or new releases for those versions.
Our process for taking a security issue from private discussion to public disclosure involves multiple steps.
Approximately one week before public disclosure, we send two notifications:
First, we notify django-announce of the date and approximate time of the upcoming security release, as well as the severity of the issues. This is to aid organizations that need to ensure they have staff available to handle triaging our announcement and upgrade Django as needed. Severity levels are:
High:
Moderate:
Low:
Second, we notify a list of people and organizations, primarily composed of operating-system vendors and other distributors of Django. This email is signed with the PGP key of someone from Django's release team and consists of:
On the day of disclosure, we will take the following steps:
If a reported issue is believed to be particularly time-sensitive -- due to a known exploit in the wild, for example -- the time between advance notification and public disclosure may be shortened considerably.
Additionally, if we have reason to believe that an issue reported to us affects other frameworks or tools in the Python/web ecosystem, we may privately contact and discuss those issues with the appropriate maintainers, and coordinate our own disclosure and resolution with theirs.
The Django team also maintains an archive of security issues disclosed in Django.
The full list of people and organizations who receive advance notification of security issues is not and will not be made public.
We also aim to keep this list as small as effectively possible, in order to better manage the flow of confidential information prior to disclosure. As such, our notification list is not simply a list of users of Django, and being a user of Django is not sufficient reason to be placed on the notification list.
In broad terms, recipients of security notifications fall into three groups:
Security audit and scanning entities
As a policy, we do not add these types of entities to the notification list.
If you believe that you, or an organization you are authorized to
represent, fall into one of the groups listed above, you can ask to be
added to Django's notification list by emailing
security@djangoproject.com
. Please use the subject line "Security
notification request".
您的请求**必须**包含以下信息:
Once submitted, your request will be considered by the Django development team; you will receive a reply notifying you of the result of your request within 30 days.
Please also bear in mind that for any individual or organization, receiving security notifications is a privilege granted at the sole discretion of the Django development team, and that this privilege can be revoked at any time, with or without explanation.
Provide all required information
A failure to provide the required information in your initial contact will count against you when making the decision on whether or not to approve your request.
