Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-6244:
----------------------------------------
@mkl thank you for your review. I'd keep "considered" as this is part of our
security model where we are defining what constitutes an in-scope security
report rather than making a universal statement about the nature of the
behavior.
[~tilman] something to add from your side? Otherwise I'd move forward and
change SECURITY.md accordingly. As a follow up I will also be reviewing the
security.html to maybe include some of the definitions but on a higher level.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-6244
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Tilman Hausherr
> Assignee: Tilman Hausherr
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.38, 3.0.9 PDFBox, 4.0.0

> Clarify that parsing doesn't check whether any signatures are verified /
> valid, and that loading a manipulated / "updated" PDF will not fail parsing.
> This applies to certification constraints as well. This behavior is not a
> security flaw, it's a missing feature. The ShowSignature example offers a
> limited signature check. The gold standard is Adobe Reader.
