Hi Jody,

we will continue to watch for the “security considerations”. I just wanted to 
make sure I am not missing something essential.

The category vulnerability is also very helpful. Good idea.

Have a nice day and thank you all,
Andreas

Betreff: Re: [Geoserver-users] Notifications about vulnerabilities

Actually I have an idea, searching for all announcements that have a "security 
considerations" heading, and adding the vulnerability category gives me this:
- https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.github.io/pull/121

Vulnerability:
    GeoServer 2.19.4 Released
    GeoServer 2.16.1 released
    GeoServer 2.14.0 Released
    GeoServer 2.14-RC released
    GeoServer 2.12.5 released
    GeoServer 2.13.2 released
    GeoServer 2.12.4 Release
    GeoServer 2.12.3 Released
    GeoServer 2.10.4 Released
    GeoServer 2.11.1 Released

Not the best as we do not have a landing page for vulnerabilities; but it is at 
least interesting.

To add to Ian's answer:

As an operator of geoserver take note of the release announcements:
- We include a "Security Considerations" heading in each release where there is 
a security fix
- When all active branches have the security fix the security considerations 
section may contain additional details (such as a ticket number).

If we as a community had capacity (budget or volunteers) there is some 
infrastructure support available in 
github<https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/repository-security-advisories/about-github-security-advisories-for-repositories>
 for managing communication around CVE reports.

The PSC maintains a list of known security issues for those volunteering to 
work on security issues. If you have capacity you may wish to take part. Many 
of the GeoServer service providers participate on behalf of their customers.

Dear GeoServer community,

I have security related questions:

* Is there a procedure by which operators of GeoServer installations can learn 
of security vulnerabilities that require updating GeoServer?
* Is there a list of security-related bug fixes made with a release?

If nothing exists:

* Would it be possible to introduce something like a security-announcement 
mailing list?
* Would it be possible to list fixed security vulnerabilities per release. For 
example, Tomcat has a corresponding list, which I find very helpful: 
https://tomcat.apache.org/security-9.html

Thank for providing this great tool!

Best regards,
Andreas
