SECURITY.md

+may escalate to the OpenJS Foundation CNA at `[email protected]`.
+
+If the project acknowledges your report but does not provide any further
+response or engagement within 14 days, escalation is also appropriate.


This is fine but what does escalation entail?

Escalation means contacting the OpenJS Foundation CNA if the Node.js security team is unresponsive. The CNA can ensure your report is acknowledged, help coordinate disclosure, and assign a CVE if necessary. Escalation does not bypass the normal process or guarantee a faster fix. It is a safeguard to ensure reports are properly handled.
