| **Important** | Important releases should be evaluated immediately. These issues allow an attacker to compromise a site's data and should be fixed within days. *Example: SQL injection.* |
| **Moderate** | Releases of moderate severity should be applied as soon as possible. They allow the unauthorized editing or creation of content. *Examples: Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in template helpers.* |
| **Low** | Low risk releases fix information disclosure and read-only privilege escalation vulnerabilities. These updates should also be applied as soon as possible, but with an impact-dependent priority. *Example: Exposure of the core version number, Cross Site Scripting (XSS) limited to the admin interface.* |
### Pre-announce Mailinglist
In addition to our public disclosure process, we maintain a private mailinglist
where upcoming security releases will be pre-announced. Members in this list will receive a security
pre-announcement as soon as it has been sufficiently researched,
alongside a timeline for the upcoming release. This will happen a few days before
the announcement goes public alongside new release, and most likely before a patch has been developed.
Since we’ll distribute sensitive info on unpatched vulnerabilities in this list,
the selection criteria for joining naturally has to be strict.
Applicants should provide references within the community,
as well as a demonstrated need for this level of information (e.g. a large website with sensitive customer data).
You don’t need to be a client of SilverStripe Ltd to get on board,
but we will need to perform some low-touch background checks to ensure identity.
Please contact security@silverstripe.org for details.
