# Security Policy

ISC's Security Vulnerability Disclosure Policy is documented in the
relevant [ISC Knowledgebase article][1].

## Reporting possible security issues

If you think you may be seeing a potential security vulnerability in
BIND (for example, a crash with a REQUIRE, INSIST, or ASSERT failure),
please report it immediately by [opening a confidential GitLab issue][2]
(preferred) or emailing bind-security@isc.org.

Please do not discuss undisclosed security vulnerabilities on any public
mailing list. ISC has a long history of handling reported
vulnerabilities promptly and effectively and we respect and acknowledge
responsible reporters.

If you have a crash, you may want to consult the Knowledgebase article
entitled ["What to do if your BIND or DHCP server has crashed"][3].
