+# Security Policy
+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+Please **do not** report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.
+
+Instead, use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting feature:
+👉 https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/security
+
+This allows vulnerabilities to be triaged and addressed confidentially before any public disclosure.
+
+## Scope
+
+### HTTP / TLS / Network vulnerabilities
+
+yq is a command-line YAML/JSON/TOML processor that reads from files or standard input and writes to standard output. **yq does not include any HTTP or network libraries** and makes no network connections at runtime. CVEs related to HTTP, TLS, or networking are therefore **not applicable** to yq.
+
+### Dependency version bumps
+
+yq uses [Dependabot](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot) to automatically raise pull requests for:
+
+- Go module dependencies
+- Go toolchain version
+- Docker base images
+
+Please **do not** raise pull requests or issues solely to bump dependency or Go versions — Dependabot handles this automatically and the maintainers merge those PRs regularly.
