| Vulnerability Disclosure | ||
| ======================== | ||
|
|
||
| If you think you have found a potential security vulnerability in requests, | ||
| please email `Nate <mailto:nate.prewitt@gmail.com>`_ and `Seth <mailto:@sethmichaellarson@gmail.com>`_ directly. **Do not file a public issue.** | ||
|
|
||
| Our PGP Key fingerprints are: | ||

| - EDD5 6765 A9D8 4653 CBC8 A134 51B0 6736 1740 F5FC (`@sethmlarson <https://keybase.io/sethmlarson>`_) | ||
|
|
||
| You can also contact us on `Keybase <https://keybase.io/>`_ with the | ||
| profiles above if desired. | ||
|
|
||
| If English is not your first language, please try to describe the problem and | ||
| its impact to the best of your ability. For greater detail, please use your | ||
| native language and we will try our best to translate it using online services. | ||
|
|
||
| Please also include the code you used to find the problem and the shortest | ||
| amount of code necessary to reproduce it. | ||
|
|
||
| Please do not disclose this to anyone else. We will retrieve a CVE identifier | ||
| if necessary and give you full credit under whatever name or alias you provide. | ||
| We will only request an identifier when we have a fix and can publish it in a | ||
| release. | ||
|
|
||
| We will respect your privacy and will only publicize your involvement if you | ||
| grant us permission. | ||
|
|
||
| Process | ||
| ------- | ||
|
|
||
| This following information discusses the process the requests project follows | ||
| in response to vulnerability disclosures. If you are disclosing a | ||
| vulnerability, this section of the documentation lets you know how we will | ||
| respond to your disclosure. | ||
|
|
||
| Timeline | ||
| ~~~~~~~~ | ||
|
|
||
| When you report an issue, one of the project members will respond to you within | ||
| two days *at the outside*. In most cases responses will be faster, usually | ||
| within 12 hours. This initial response will at the very least confirm receipt | ||
| of the report. | ||
|
|
||
| If we were able to rapidly reproduce the issue, the initial response will also | ||
| contain confirmation of the issue. If we are not, we will often ask for more | ||
| information about the reproduction scenario. | ||
|
|
||
| Our goal is to have a fix for any vulnerability released within two weeks of | ||
| the initial disclosure. This may potentially involve shipping an interim | ||
| release that simply disables function while a more mature fix can be prepared, | ||
| but will in the vast majority of cases mean shipping a complete release as soon | ||
| as possible. | ||
|
|
||
| Throughout the fix process we will keep you up to speed with how the fix is | ||
| progressing. Once the fix is prepared, we will notify you that we believe we | ||
| have a fix. Often we will ask you to confirm the fix resolves the problem in | ||
| your environment, especially if we are not confident of our reproduction | ||
| scenario. | ||
|
|
||
| At this point, we will prepare for the release. We will obtain a CVE number | ||
| if one is required, providing you with full credit for the discovery. We will | ||
| also decide on a planned release date, and let you know when it is. This | ||
| release date will *always* be on a weekday. | ||
|
|
||
| At this point we will reach out to our major downstream packagers to notify | ||
| them of an impending security-related patch so they can make arrangements. In | ||
| addition, these packagers will be provided with the intended patch ahead of | ||
| time, to ensure that they are able to promptly release their downstream | ||
| packages. Currently the list of people we actively contact *ahead of a public | ||
| release* is: | ||
|
|
||
| - Python Maintenance Team, Red Hat (python-maint@redhat.com) | ||
| - Daniele Tricoli, Debian (@eriol) | ||
|
|
||
| We will notify these individuals at least a week ahead of our planned release | ||
| date to ensure that they have sufficient time to prepare. If you believe you | ||
| should be on this list, please let one of the maintainers know at one of the | ||
| email addresses at the top of this article. | ||
|
|
||
| On release day, we will push the patch to our public repository, along with an | ||
| updated changelog that describes the issue and credits you. We will then issue | ||
| a PyPI release containing the patch. | ||
|
|
||
| At this point, we will publicise the release. This will involve mails to | ||
| mailing lists, Tweets, and all other communication mechanisms available to the | ||
| core team. | ||
|
|
||
| We will also explicitly mention which commits contain the fix to make it easier | ||
| for other distributors and users to easily patch their own versions of requests | ||
| if upgrading is not an option. | ||
