Advisory form
Report a new leak
Hey! Thanks for taking the time to do this. Your submission helps the community. All submissions to this website are ultimately vetted on the GitHub repository.
Reporting a leak takes three steps.
- Fill out the form to the left.
- Review the preview. We turn your report into the YAML that goes into the advisory database, so you can revise anything that looks out of place.
- Submit for review. That is when we store it and email the reviewers, nothing is saved before it.
Before you start
- If it is a vulnerability, discreetly disclose the flaw to the gem maintainer(s) first. Please be polite! Open source maintainers are usually unpaid volunteers, and everyone deserves a little courtesy.
- Try to figure out what versions are affected by the flaw, and whether a patch can be released.
