what to do
Primary person should do so:
- Every day look into upstream security trackers like below:
- Whenever we discover any new CVE, we add it to the CVE spreadsheets (still private), and click the link (above left) to generate new issues. Then we should be able to see a new issue created in Flatcar GitHub issues with labels
security
and advisory
.
- If an issue of updating the specific package affected by the new CVE is already open in Flatcar GitHub issues, then unfortunately we need to manually edit the existing issue to add the new CVE.
