This document outlines security policy and procedures for the CrowdStrike project: "EMBERSim: A Large-Scale Databank for Boosting Similarity Search in Malware Analysis".
When discovered, we release security vulnerability patches for the most recent release at an accelerated cadence.
We have multiple avenues to receive security-related vulnerability reports.
Please report suspected security vulnerabilities by:
- Submitting an issue.
- Starting a new discussion.
- Submitting a pull request to potentially resolve the issue.
- Sending an email to [email protected].
Upon receiving a security bug report, the issue will be assigned to one of the project maintainers. This person will coordinate the related fix and release process, involving the following steps:
-
Communicate with you to confirm we have received the report and provide you with a status update.
- You should receive this message within 48 - 72 business hours.
-
Confirmation of the issue and a determination of affected versions.
-
An audit of the codebase to find any potentially similar problems.
-
Preparation of patches for all releases still under maintenance.
- These patches will be submitted as a separate pull request and contain a version update.
- This pull request will be flagged as a security fix.
- Once merged, and after post-merge unit testing has been completed, the patch will be immediately published to both PyPI repositories.
If you have suggestions on how this process could be improved, please let us know by starting a new discussion.
