It would be really useful to have a time limit here, like "The team will respond in 48 hours to confirm that someone has seen your message. If you do not get a response, do X."

That would be useful, but no such policy exists right now and it would need to go through the maintainers group, so no need to block this PR on it. @diracdeltas you may want to open a separate issue for that suggestion.


Report security bugs in third-party modules to the person or team maintaining the module. You can also report a vulnerability through the [Node Security Project](https://nodesecurity.io/report).
