Write docs/security.md — unified security policy update #299

Description

@Nursca

Description
The current SECURITY.md is generic. It needs to be updated to reflect the full ILN ecosystem (contracts, SDK, indexer, notifications) with component-specific vulnerability classes, reporting procedures, and response timelines.

Requirements and context

  • Vulnerability classes per component: Soroban contract (reentrancy, storage collision), SDK (XDR encoding bugs, signing bypass), indexer (SQL injection, API abuse), notifications (HMAC bypass, SSRF via webhook URL)
  • Reporting instructions (email or private GitHub Security Advisory)
  • Response timeline commitments: acknowledgment within 48 hours, fix timeline for critical/high/medium
  • Safe harbour statement for good-faith researchers
  • Severity classification table

Suggested execution

git checkout -b docs/security-policy-update
  • Update SECURITY.md
  • Get maintainer review before merging

Example commit message
docs: update SECURITY.md with ecosystem-wide vulnerability guidance
