# Reporting Security Vulnerabilities

Oracle values the independent security research community and believes that responsible disclosure of security vulnerabilities helps us ensure the security and privacy of all our users.

Please do NOT raise a GitHub Issue to report a security vulnerability. If you believe you have found a security vulnerability, please submit a report to secalert_us@oracle.com preferably with a proof of concept. We provide additional information on [how to report security vulnerabilities to Oracle](https://www.oracle.com/corporate/security-practices/assurance/vulnerability/reporting.html) which includes public encryption keys for secure email.

We ask that you do not use other channels or contact project contributors directly.

Non-vulnerability related security issues such as great new ideas for security features are welcome on GitHub Issues.

## Security-Related Information

We will provide security related information such as a threat model, considerations for secure use, or any known security issues in our documentation. Please note that labs and sample code are intended to demonstrate a concept and may not be sufficiently hardened for production use.
