Hi Chet, see my comments in Policy document. My major topic is that the complexity of a violnerability of standard (compared with a software flaw) is not addressed: - Who are the stakeholders? - How to contact them? - How to avoid unintended full disclosure by informing vulnerabilty traders? Greetings, Andreas > Andreas, this is really interesting. We have two documents right now: > > - The Vulnerability Handling and Disclosure Policy at > https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vx-ul_MTenguAmFZKnMS89yEu1YMbvRenJGk0D7N3KI/edit#heading=h.7m6wq9expm3e > > - The Vulnerability Handling and Disclosure Process at > https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qxp3EMq8KKq84smrAFyWlnL87oOrPj-kT9dxefjk5Pc/edit#heading=h.7m6wq9expm3e > - > the Process is the document that we'll put on the OASIS public pages to > guide researchers who want to report findings. > > With the link, you can comment.
