+# Security Policy
+
+If you discover a security-related issue (a crash), please report it based on the instructions below.
+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+Please **DO NOT** file a public issue, instead report the vulnerability on the relevant
+[GitHub security](https://github.com/CESNET/libyang/security) page. If you do not receive any reaction within 48 hours,
+please also send an email to [[email protected]].
+
+## Review Process
+
+After receiving the report, an initial triage and technical analysis is performed to confirm the report and determine
+its scope. We may request additional information in this stage of the process.
+
+Once a reviewer has confirmed the relevance of the report, a draft security advisory will be created on GitHub. The
+draft advisory will be used to discuss the issue with maintainers, the reporter(s), and where applicable, other affected
+parties under embargo.
+
+If the vulnerability is accepted, a timeline for developing a patch, public disclosure, and patch release will be
+determined. If there is an embargo period on public disclosure before the patch release, the reporter(s) are expected to
+participate in the discussion of the timeline and abide by agreed upon dates for public disclosure.
+
+Usually, the reasonably complex issues are fixed within hours of being reported.
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+After an issue is fixed, it **WILL NOT** be backported to any released version. Instead, it is kept in the public `devel`
+branch, which is periodically merged into the main branch when a new release is due. So, the issue will be fixed in the
+next release after it is fixed.
