Security fixes will be backported only to the webpki versions for which the original semver-compatible release was published less than 2 years ago.
For example, as of 2023-06-13 the latest release is 0.100.1
- 0.100.0 was released in March of 2023
- 0.17.0 was released in August of 2017
Therefore 0.100.x will be updated, while 0.17.x will not be.
Please report security bugs via github. We'll then:
- Prepare a fix and regression tests.
- Backport the fix and make a patch release for most recent release.
- Submit an advisory to rustsec/advisory-db.
- Refer to the advisory on the main README.md and release notes.
