PR #4731: Harden vulnerability reporting workflow and policy (#4610)

Description (problem / solution / changelog)

Summary

This PR implements issue #4610.

  • Scope: [SECURITY] Critical Vulnerability Disclosure
  • Source branch: yuweuii:codex/issue-4610
  • Commit: f9dea9bd

Linked Issue

Closes #4610

<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->

[!NOTE] Low Risk Low risk documentation/template changes plus lightweight tests; main risk is CI failures if template text/paths change unexpectedly.

Overview Strengthens public-facing vulnerability reporting guidance by adding a security notice and mandatory non-security confirmation checkbox to the bug_report.yml issue template, and by exposing private security reporting links via .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml.

Updates .github/SECURITY.md to explicitly direct reporters to GitHub Security Advisories and to document an escalation window if acknowledgements are delayed.

Adds test_security_reporting_templates.py to assert the security policy is present, mentions acknowledgement/escalation timelines, and that the issue templates/config include the expected private security contact information.

Fix Plan

To address the critical vulnerability, we will focus on securing the project by implementing proper security protocols and ensuring timely responses to security concerns.

  • Step 1: Acknowledge and Assign
    • Assign a team member to oversee the vulnerability fix.
    • Respond to the security report acknowledging receipt and outlining the next steps.
  • Step 2: Implement Security Fix
    • Identify the vulnerable code or component.
    • Apply the necessary security patches or updates.
    • Example: If the issue is related to a library, update it using pip: pip install --upgrade vulnerable-library
  • Step 3: Verify Fix
    • Run tests to ensure the fix does not introduce new issues.
    • Use tools like bandit or safety to scan for vulnerabilities: bandit -r /path/to/project
  • Step 4: Deploy and Monitor
    • Deploy the fixed version to production.
    • Monitor for any issues related to the fix.

Verification

To verify the fix, check for the following:

  • The security report is acknowledged and responded to.
  • The vulnerable code or component is updated.
  • Tests pass without introducing new issues.
  • No new vulnerabilities are detected by security scanning tools.

Extra Tips

  • Regularly review and respond to security reports.
  • Implement a vulnerability management process to ensure timely fixes.
  • Use security tools and libraries to stay up-to-date with the latest security patches and best practices.
