+# Security Policy
+
+## Reporting a vulnerability
+
+The iproute2 suite of utilities is tightly coupled with the Linux
+kernel networking. Therefore the bug reporting process mirrors
+the Linux kernel. Most security problems reported related to
+iproute2 are really Linux kernel issues (a.k.a Shoot the messenger)
+and are best handled via
+[Linux Security Bugs](https://docs.kernel.org/process/security-bugs.html).
+
+For other issues please report bugs to netdev@vger.kernel.org
+and include an example script.
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+There are no official "Long Term Support" versions for iproute2.
+The iproute2 version matches the Linux kernel versions.
+There will be occasional maintenance releases for serious
+issues if found. Users who need support are encouraged
+to use the version of iproute2 found in major distributions.
