All security bugs reported will be silently fixed in master and backported to the previous release.

If a security issue is discovered, please report it to security@riot-os.org. A response will be provided within one week. The issue will be tracked in the security mailing list. The original reporter will be included in the discussion of the issue.

After a fix is provided the security issue will be privately disclosed to the original reporter, RIOT security maintainers, and "Trusted RIOT Users". A public announcement of the security fix will be made two weeks after the point release, though this may vary depending on the severity and ability of trusted RIOT users to provide the fix.

To access the "Trusted RIOT Users" notifications on the RIOT forum please send information on the RIOT based service or product as well as your forum username to the security mailing list. Early notification of security bugs will be available and should not be shared publicly. If done, it will result in access removal from the "Trusted RIOT Users" notifications.
