Summary

SECURITY.md asks reporters to use GitHub's Private Vulnerability Reporting feature. But there is no .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml, so the issue chooser does not surface that private route. A reporter has to find SECURITY.md on their own.

This adds a "Report a security vulnerability" contact link to the private advisory form, so the private route shows up in the chooser.

Changes

  • Add .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml with a contact link pointing to https://github.com/ceems-dev/ceems/security/advisories/new.
  • Keep blank_issues_enabled: true so the current behaviour doesn't change. The file only adds a route.

Docs / GitHub config only. No application code changed. Private vulnerability reporting is already enabled for this repository (GET /repos/ceems-dev/ceems/private-vulnerability-reporting returns {"enabled":true}).

SECURITY.md asks reporters not to open a public issue for vulnerabilities.
Add a contact link so the private advisory form shows up in the issue chooser.
