Security Bug Handling Process

  • Dave provided an overview of his draft
  • Suggestion to have a minimum of 2 people per project (identify primary and alternate)
  • How are we defining security bugs -- are bugs in consensus algorithms technically security bugs, for instance?
    • Rough definition is that any bug that allows some non-trusted actor (or even trusted actor) to adversely affect the functioning of the network.   So, that would include a bug in the consensus algorithm, as well.
  • Would be helpful to look at what Ethereum and Bitcoin have done about appropriate response for algorithmic bugs, i.e. DAO.
  • If an OpenSSL bug is reported, does this committee meet to see how it impacts us?  Yes.
  • Suggest capturing learnings from threat modeling that can be shared between projects
  • ACTION:  Dave to incorporate this feedback into draft, circulate via email for comments, and then call for an email vote
