description: >-
  Calico runs a real, documented disclosure programme across two surfaces — Tigera's corporate
  Vulnerability Disclosure Policy for the commercial editions, and Project Calico's own SECURITY.md
  for the open source project. Neither is machine-discoverable: there is no /.well-known/security.txt
  on any host (see well-known/calico-well-known.yml).

third_party_cves:
  policy: >-
    Calico publishes a VEX repository (https://github.com/tigera/vex) analysing third-party CVEs
    that scanners such as Trivy, Grype and Docker Scout flag in Calico container images — whether
    each is exploitable or applicable to supported versions. Reporters are asked to check it before
    filing.
  vex_repository: https://github.com/tigera/vex
  note: >-
    A published VEX feed is a stronger-than-average disclosure posture; most providers in this
    catalog publish nothing equivalent.

  recommendation: >-
    Publishing an RFC 9116 security.txt with Contact psirt@projectcalico.org and Policy
    https://www.tigera.io/vulnerability-disclosure/ would make an existing, well-run programme
    machine-discoverable. The content already exists; only the file is missing.
