+Reporting New Security Problems with Apache Commons Components
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The [Apache Software Foundation](https://www.apache.org) takes a very active stance in eliminating security problems and denial of service attacks against its products.
+
+We strongly encourage folks to report such problems to our private security mailing list first, before disclosing them in a public forum.
+
+Please note that the security mailing list should only be used for reporting undisclosed security vulnerabilities and managing the process of fixing such vulnerabilities.
+We cannot accept regular bug reports or other queries at this address.
+All mail sent to this address that does not relate to an undisclosed security problem in our source code will be ignored.
+
+If you need to report a bug that isn't an undisclosed security vulnerability, please use the [bug reporting page](https://commons.apache.org/patches.html#Submitting_A_Patch).
+
+The private security mailing address is: [security@commons.apache.org](mailto:security@commons.apache.org)
+
+Asking Questions About Known Security Problems
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Questions about:
+
+- if a vulnerability applies to your particular application
+- obtaining further information on a published vulnerability
+- availability of patches and/or new releases
+
+should be addressed to the users mailing list.
+
+Please see the [mailing lists page](https://commons.apache.org/mail-lists.html) for details of how to subscribe.
+
