1# Security Policy 2 3## Reporting a vulnerability 4 5The iproute2 suite of utilities is tightly coupled with the Linux 6kernel networking. Therefore the bug reporting process mirrors 7the Linux kernel. Most security problems reported related to 8iproute2 are really Linux kernel issues (a.k.a Shoot the messenger) 9and are best handled via 10[Linux Security Bugs](https://docs.kernel.org/process/security-bugs.html). 11 12For other issues please report bugs to netdev@vger.kernel.org 13and include an example script. 14 15## Supported Versions 16 17There are no official "Long Term Support" versions for iproute2. 18The iproute2 version matches the Linux kernel versions. 19There will be occasional maintenance releases for serious 20issues if found. Users who need support are encouraged 21to use the version of iproute2 found in major distributions. 22
