This page provides a central hub for topics pertaining to the security of the
|
|
Qubes OS Project. For topics pertaining to software security *within* Qubes OS,
|

|
|
important project security pages:
|
|
|
|
- [Qubes Security Pack (`qubes-secpack`)](/security/pack/)
|
|
- [Qubes Security Bulletins (QSBs)](/security/qsb/)
|
|
- [Qubes Canaries](/security/canary/)
|
|
- [Xen Security Advisory (XSA) Tracker](/security/xsa/)
|
|

## Reporting Security Issues in Qubes OS
|
|
|
|
If you believe you have found a security issue affecting Qubes OS, either
|
|
directly or indirectly (e.g., the issue affects Xen in a configuration that is
|
|
used in Qubes OS), then we would be more than happy to hear from you! Please
|
|
send a [PGP-encrypted](#security-team-pgp-key) email to the [Qubes Security
|
|
Team](#qubes-security-team). We promise to take all reported issues seriously.
|
|
If our investigation confirms that an issue affects Qubes, we will patch it
|
|
within a reasonable time and release a public [Qubes Security Bulletin
|
|
(QSB)](/security/qsb/) that describes the issue, discusses the potential impact
|
|
of the vulnerability, references applicable patches or workarounds, and credits
|
|
the discoverer.
|
|
|
|
## Security Updates
|
|
|
|
Qubes security updates are obtained by [updating Qubes
|
|
OS](/doc/how-to-update/).
|
|
|
|
## Qubes Security Team
|
|
|
|
The **Qubes Security Team (QST)** is the subset of the [Core Qubes
|
|
Team](/team/#core-team) that is responsible for ensuring the security of Qubes OS
|
|
and the Qubes OS Project. In particular, the QST is responsible for:
|
|
|
|
- Responding to [reported security
|
|
issues](#reporting-security-issues-in-qubes-os)
|
|
- Evaluating whether [XSAs](/security/xsa/) affect the security of Qubes OS
|
|
- Writing, applying, and/or distributing security patches to fix
|
|
vulnerabilities in Qubes OS
|
|
- Writing, signing, and publishing [Qubes Security Bulletins
|
|
(QSBs)](/security/qsb/)
|
|
- Writing, signing, and publishing [Qubes Canaries](/security/canary/)
|
|
- Generating, safeguarding, and using the project's [PGP
|
|
keys](https://keys.qubes-os.org/keys/)
|
|
|
|
As a security-oriented operating system, the QST is fundamentally important to
|
|
Qubes, and every Qubes user implicitly trusts the members of the QST by virtue
|
|
of the actions listed above. The Qubes Security Team can be contacted via email
|
|
at the following address:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
security at qubes-os dot org
|
|
```
|
|

|
