Add "CSAF" field to find OASIS CSAF documents

Open nightwatchcyber opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

CSAF is an OASIS draft standard to define a machine readable format for security advisories. It would be something like: CSAF: https://psirt.domain.tld/advisories/csaf/

See: https://github.com/oasis-tcs/csaf/issues/152

Deferred to the future, once the draft is approved this field can be added to the IANA registry via the standard process

Thank you for considering adding a CSAF reference!

This is now tracked in oasis-tcs/csaf#318. The usage is described in Section 7.1.8 of the CSAF specification.

A few examples of security.txt with CSAF references:

  • https://www.cisco.com/.well-known/security.txt
  • https://www.tibco.com/.well-known/security.txt

@santosomar This one works:

  • https://www.cisco.com/.well-known/security.txt

That one does not (any more) and fails with ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS:

  • https://www.tibco.com/.well-known/security.txt

I contacted Tibco and they fixed it.
