The payload does not name the source file that implements the security-policy check, so first locate it in the Python validator. Reproduce the two cases: a directory containing only a SECURITY_CONTACTS file with the two Kubernetes header lines, and a SECURITY.md with a ## Reporting a Vulnerability heading and an obfuscated address. Done when both produce the expected result and the expectations in corpus/ are updated to match. The issue leaves open whether the heading alone should count, so confirm that with maintainers first.

Description

kubespray follows the Kubernetes organisation's SECURITY_CONTACTS file (header points to kubernetes.io/security, private reporting to the Product Security Committee) → WARN "no security policy"; Catch2's SECURITY.md has a "Reporting a Vulnerability" section with a spam-obfuscated email and a PGP fingerprint → WARN "does not say how to report".

Evidence from the corpus audit

kubernetes-sigs/kubespray / security-policy
  • kind: UNSUPPORTED
  • actual: WARN "no security policy / add a SECURITY.md that says how to report a vulnerability privately"
  • expected: PASS or at least a mention: the repository follows the Kubernetes-organisation convention,
    SECURITY_CONTACTS, whose header tells reporters to follow https://kubernetes.io/security/ (private reporting to
    the Kubernetes Product Security Committee). Every kubernetes/ and kubernetes-sigs/ repository has this file
    (kubernetes/examples in this batch has both and passes on its SECURITY.md).
  • evidence: SECURITY_CONTACTS:10-11: # DO NOT REPORT SECURITY VULNERABILITIES DIRECTLY TO THESE NAMES, FOLLOW THE /
    # INSTRUCTIONS AT https://kubernetes.io/security/; find . -iname 'SECURITY*' → only ./SECURITY_CONTACTS.
  • repro: a repo with SECURITY_CONTACTS containing those two header lines and no SECURITY.md.
  • confidence: medium
catchorg/Catch2 / security-policy
  • kind: FALSE_NEGATIVE
  • actual: WARN: SECURITY.md does not say how to report a vulnerability
  • expected: PASS: SECURITY.md has a "Reporting a Vulnerability" section with a (spam-obfuscated) email address and
    a PGP fingerprint.
  • evidence: SECURITY.md:12: ## Reporting a Vulnerability; :18-20: However, if you find one you send email to martin <dot> horenovsky <at> / gmail <dot> com. If you want to encrypt the email, my pgp key is /
    `E29C 46F3 B8A7 5028 6079 3B7D ECC9 C20E 314B 2360`.
  • repro: a SECURITY.md with "## Reporting a Vulnerability" and name <at> example <dot> com; expect PASS (or
    accept the heading alone as "says how").
  • confidence: medium

Found by the regression-corpus audit (235 real repositories, one or more per ecosystem profile; corpus and expected results in corpus/). Evidence is quoted from the audited checkouts at the commits pinned in corpus/projects.toml; <checkouts>/<owner>__<repo> is such a checkout.
