Like all pieces of software, reddit has bugs – and it always will. Some
of them will take the form of security vulnerabilities.

[security@reddit.com](mailto:security@reddit.com). We'll get back to you ASAP,
usually within 24 hours.

Once the issue is fixed, if you provide your reddit username, we'll credit your

Thank you and good hunting.
