Pull request overview

This PR adds a comprehensive Security section to the README documenting the Stellar Bug Bounty Program requirements and submission guidelines for security researchers. The addition is motivated by addressing low-quality vulnerability reports that lack demonstrable exploits or apply to pre-production development concerns.

Changes:

  • Added prominent IMPORTANT callout at the top of the README directing security researchers to the new Security section
  • Added Security entry to the Table of Contents
  • Added comprehensive Security section (150+ lines) covering development status, mandatory submission requirements, severity guidelines, valid/invalid report patterns, HackerOne ineligible findings, notes on AI-generated reports, and submission instructions

💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
