_ISO 27005 defines vulnerability as:
"A weakness of an asset or group of assets that can be exploited by one or more threats."_

## The Eclipse Security Team
## Eclipse Foundation Security Team

The Eclipse Security Team provides help and advice to Eclipse projects
on vulnerability issues and is the first point of contact
for handling security vulnerabilities.
Members of the Security Team are committers on Eclipse Projects
and members of the Eclipse Architecture Council.

Contact the [Eclipse Security Team](mailto:security@eclipse.org).

**Note that, as a matter of policy, the security team does not open attachments.**
The Eclipse Foundation Security Team provides help and advice to Eclipse projects on security issues and is the first point of contact for handling security vulnerabilities. Members of the Security Team are selected from committers on Eclipse Projects, members of the [Eclipse Architecture Council](https://www.eclipse.org/projects/handbook/#roles-ac), and Eclipse Foundation staff.

## Reporting a Security Vulnerability

Vulnerabilities can be reported either via email to the Eclipse Security Team
or directly with a project via the Eclipse Foundation's Bugzilla instance.

The general security mailing list address is security@eclipse.org.
Members of the Eclipse Security Team will receive messages sent to this address.
This address should be used only for reporting undisclosed vulnerabilities;
regular issue reports and questions unrelated to vulnerabilities in Eclipse software
will be ignored.
Note that this email address is not encrypted.

The community is also encouraged to report vulnerabilities using the
[Eclipse Foundation's Bugzilla instance](https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Community&component=Vulnerability%20Reports&keywords=security&groups=Security_Advisories).
Note that you will require an Eclipse Foundation account to create an issue report,
but by doing so you will be able to participate directly in the resolution of the issue.
Vulnerabilities can be reported either via email to [security@eclipse-foundation.org](mailto:security@eclipse-foundation.org) or directly with a project via the Eclipse Foundation’s [issue tracker](https://gitlab.eclipse.org/security/vulnerability-reports/-/issues/new?issuable_template=new_vulnerability).

Issue reports related to vulnerabilities must be marked as "committers-only",
either automatically by clicking the provided link, by the reporter,
or by a committer during the triage process.
Note that issues marked "committers-only" are visible to all Eclipse committers.
By default, a "committers-only" issue is also accessible to the reporter
and individuals explicitly indicated in the "cc" list.
The general [security team email address](mailto:security@eclipse-foundation.org) can also be used to report vulnerabilities. Members of the Eclipse Foundation Security Team will receive messages sent to this address. This address should be used only for reporting undisclosed vulnerabilities; regular issue reports and questions unrelated to vulnerabilities in Eclipse Foundation project software will be ignored. Note that this email address is not encrypted.

Disclosure is initially limited to the reporter and all Eclipse Committers,
but is expanded to include other individuals, and the general public.
