docs: Add a basic security document
Based loosely on the Linux kernel Documentation/admin-guide/security-bugs.rst file, create a basic security document for U-Boot. In sum, security issues should be disclosed in public on the mailing list if at all possible as an initial position.

Handling of security vulnerabilities
|
||||
====================================
|
||||
|
||||
The U-Boot project takes security very seriously. As such, we'd like to know
|
||||
when a security bug is found so that it can be fixed and disclosed as quickly
|
||||
as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Contact
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
The preferred initial point of contact is to send email to
|
||||
`u-boot@lists.denx.de` and use `scripts/get_maintainers.pl` to also include any
|
||||
relevant custodians. In addition, Tom Rini should be contacted at
|
||||
`trini@konsulko.com`.
|
||||
|
||||
CVE assignment
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
The U-Boot project cannot directly assign CVEs, nor do we require them for
|
||||
reports or fixes, as this can needlessly complicate the process and may delay
|
||||
the bug handling. If a reporter wishes to have a CVE identifier assigned ahead
|
||||
of public disclosure, they will need to coordinate this on their own. When
|
||||
such a CVE identifier is known before a patch is provided, it is desirable to
|
||||
mention it in the commit message if the reporter agrees.
|
||||
|
||||
Non-disclosure agreements
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The U-Boot project is not a formal body and therefore unable to enter any
|
||||
non-disclosure agreements.
