Summary

Add SECURITY.md with instructions for responsible vulnerability disclosure via GitHub Private Vulnerability Reporting (PVR).

PVR allows security researchers to report vulnerabilities privately through GitHub, keeping details confidential until a fix is ready. As a CNA, GitHub can assign CVE IDs directly through this workflow.

Thanks for the contribution! Two small suggestions:

  1. Remove the maintainer note — the line **To enable PVR** (maintainers): Settings → ... is an internal note that doesn't belong in a public-facing SECURITY.md. Reporters don't need to know this.

  2. Add newline at end of file — the file is missing a trailing newline.

Suggested content:

# Security Policy

Thanks for merging!

Could you also enable Private Vulnerability Reporting in the repo settings?

Settings → Code security → Private vulnerability reporting → Enable

Once it's active, I'll submit a detailed advisory with reproduction steps through GitHub's secure channel.
