Document vulnerability response workflow and researcher credit #47

Description

@ocularminds

Context

SECURITY.md provides private reporting and response targets, but the OpenSSF Silver criteria also ask for a documented internal response process and an explicit policy for reporter credit.

Follow-up to #22.

Acceptance criteria

  • Document triage, severity assessment, remediation ownership, coordinated disclosure, and release steps.
  • State how reporters can request credit or anonymity.
  • Define how duplicate, invalid, and embargoed reports are handled without exposing sensitive details.
  • Add a lightweight exercise or checklist that can validate the process without creating a real incident.
  • Update the corresponding OpenSSF Silver answers with public evidence links.
