# Reporting of Security Vulnerabilities
-If you discover a security vulnerability, we'd appreciate a non-public disclosure. The [issue tracker](https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues) and [systemd-devel mailing list](https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel) are fully public. If you need to reach systemd developers in a non-public way, report the issue to the [systemd-security@redhat.com](mailto:systemd-security@redhat.com) mailing list. The disclosure will be coordinated with distributions.

+Subscription to the systemd-security mailing list is open to **regular systemd contributors and people working in the security teams of various distributions**. Those conditions should be backed by publicly accessible information (ideally, a track of posts and commits from the mail address in question).
