## Vulnerability Management Policy
|
||||
|
||||
This document formally describes the process of addressing and managing a
|
||||
reported vulnerability that has been found in the MinIO server code base,
|
||||
any directly connected ecosystem component or a direct / indirect dependency
|
||||
of the code base.
|
||||
|
||||
### Scope
|
||||
|
||||
The vulnerability management policy described in this document covers the
|
||||
process of investigating, assessing and resolving a vulnerability report
|
||||
opened by a MinIO employee or an external third party.
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore, it lists pre-conditions and actions that should be performed to
|
||||
resolve and fix a reported vulnerability.
|
||||
|
||||
### Vulnerability Management Process
|
||||
|
||||
The vulnerability management process requires that the vulnerability report
|
||||
contains the following information:
|
||||
|
||||
- The project / component that contains the reported vulnerability.
|
||||
- A description of the vulnerability. In particular, the type of the
|
||||
reported vulnerability and how it might be exploited. Alternatively,
|
||||
a well-established vulnerability identifier, e.g. CVE number, can be
|
||||
used instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Based on the description mentioned above, a MinIO engineer or security team
|
||||
member investigates:
|
||||
|
||||
- Whether the reported vulnerability exists.
|
||||
- The conditions that are required such that the vulnerability can be exploited.
|
||||
- The steps required to fix the vulnerability.
|
||||
|
||||
In general, if the vulnerability exists in one of the MinIO code bases
|
||||
itself - not in a code dependency - then MinIO will, if possible, fix
|
||||
the vulnerability or implement reasonable countermeasures such that the
|
||||
vulnerability cannot be exploited anymore.
