+Security Policy
+===============
+
+DO NOT PUBLISH SECURITY REPORTS PUBLICLY.
+
+Reporting a Security Issue
+--------------------------
+
+If you find an issue that might have security implications, send a report to
+security[at]symfony.com.
+
+The full [security reporting and resolution process][1] is described in the
+Symfony documentation.
+
+Security Scope for Untrusted Templates
+--------------------------------------
+
+Twig treats template source as trusted code unless the template is rendered in
+the [Twig sandbox][2]. The regular Twig environment is not a security boundary.
+
+Applications that render templates supplied by untrusted users must enable and
+correctly configure the Twig sandbox. Any behavior that is possible because an
+application renders an untrusted template without the sandbox is not a security
+issue in Twig and must not be reported as one.
+
+Reports about untrusted templates are in scope only when they demonstrate a
+sandbox restriction bypass while the sandbox is enabled and its security policy
+does not allow the demonstrated operation.
