 Some security problems are the result of interplay between different components of the Web, rather than a vulnerability in the web server itself. Please only report vulnerabilities in the web server itself, as we cannot coerce the rest of the Web to be fixed (for example, we do not consider IP spoofing, BGP hijacks, or missing/misconfigured HTTP headers a vulnerability in the Caddy web server).
 
-Vulnerabilities caused by misconfigurations are out of scope. Yes, it is entirely possible to craft and use a configuration that is unsafe, just like with every other web server; we recommend against doing that. Similarly, external misconfigurations are out of scope. For example, an open or forwarded port from a public network to a Caddy instance intended to serve only internal clients is not a vulnerability in Caddy.

 We do not accept reports if the steps imply or require a compromised system or third-party software, as we cannot control those. We expect that users secure their own systems and keep all their software patched. For example, if untrusted users are able to upload/write/host arbitrary files in the web root directory, it is NOT a security bug in Caddy if those files get served to clients; however, it _would_ be a valid report if a bug in Caddy's source code unintentionally gave unauthorized users the ability to upload unsafe files or delete files without relying on an unpatched system or piece of software.

 It will speed things up if you suggest a working patch, such as a code diff, and explain why and how it works. Reports that are not actionable, do not contain enough information, are too pushy/demanding, or are not able to convince us that it is a viable and practical attack on the web server itself may be deferred to a later time or possibly ignored, depending on available resources. Priority will be given to credible, responsible reports that are constructive, specific, and actionable. (We get a lot of invalid reports.) Thank you for understanding.

-            
-            This PR requires **approval from 2+ maintainers** before the tag can be created.

-            ### What happens next?
-            
-            1. Maintainers review this proposal
-            2. When 2+ maintainer approvals are received, an automated workflow will post tagging instructions
-            3. A maintainer manually creates and pushes the signed tag
-            4. The release workflow is triggered automatically by the tag push
-            5. Upon release completion, this PR is closed and the branch is deleted
