+_ISO 27005 defines vulnerability as:
+ "A weakness of an asset or group of assets that can be exploited by one or more threats."_
+
+## Reporting a Security Vulnerability
+
+Vulnerabilities can be reported either via
+[email to the Eclipse Security Team](security@eclipse-foundation.org)
+or using the
+[dedicated security issue tracker](https://gitlab.eclipse.org/security/vulnerability-reports/-/issues/new?issuable_template=new_vulnerability).
+
+## Additional Information
+
+**The Eclipse Foundation Security Team** provides help and advice to Eclipse Foundation projects on
+vulnerability issues and is the first point of contact for handling security vulnerabilities.
+Members of the Eclipse Foundation Security Team are selected amongs committers on Eclipse Projects,
+members of the Eclipse Architecture Council, and Eclipse Foundation staff.
+
+The general security mailing list address is security@eclipse-foundation.org. Members of the Eclipse
+Foundation Security Team will receive messages sent to this address. This address should be used
+only for reporting undisclosed vulnerabilities; regular issue reports and questions unrelated to
+vulnerabilities in Eclipse Foundation software will be ignored. Note that this email set to this
+address is not encrypted.
+
+**Note that, as a matter of policy, the security team does not open attachments.**
+
+The community is also encouraged to report vulnerabilities using the
+[Eclipse Foundation’s issue tracker](https://gitlab.eclipse.org/security/vulnerability-reports/-/issues/new?issuable_template=new_vulnerability).
+Note that you will need an Eclipse Foundation account to create an issue report
+([create an account here if you do not have one](https://accounts.eclipse.org/user/register?destination=user)),
+but by doing so you will be able to participate directly in the resolution of the issue.
+
+Issue reports related to vulnerabilities must be marked as “confidential”, either automatically by
+clicking the provided link by the reporter, or by a committer during the triage process.
+
+## Disclosure
+
+The timing and manner of disclosure is governed by the
+[Eclipse Foundation Vulnerability Reporting Policy](https://www.eclipse.org/security/policy).
+
+Publicly disclosed issues are listed on the
+[Disclosed Vulnerabilities page](https://www.eclipse.org/security/known). \ No newline at end of file
