Security embargoes at Red Hat
The software security industry uses the term Embargo to describe the period of time that a security flaw is known privately, prior to a deadline, after which time the details become known to the public. There are no concrete rules (other than do not break the embargo, that is) for handling embargoed security flaws, but Red Hat uses some generally used security principles on how we handle them.
When an issue is under embargo, Red Hat cannot share information about that issue prior to it becoming public after an agreed upon deadline. It is likely that any software project will have to deal with an embargoed security flaw at some point, and this is often the case for Red Hat.
