I think Koha project need a communication canal for security issues: currently, 
the only one I know is using the release manager mail...

And when I look in Koha code, there are work possible in security: but should I 
submerge release manager for 'small' issues (like using regex for sanitization 
before use user variables...) whereas he has enough work with 'release manager 
tasks' ?

I think I would be better to have 'a team' for security issues, and a place for 
track these.

It should be:
  - a list, as Paul propose.
  - a component in bugs.koha-community.org (like 'security' or 
'vulnerabilities')
  - any other suggestions ?

Personnally, I will choose both: have a list with moderated subscription (the 
team security), and a component in bugzilla (where the list is the default 
assignee).

The list, for reporting and discussion about issues (some may need conceptual 
modifications), and the bugzilla component for tracking.

It seems to me, that bugzilla could mark bug as confidencial. This would permit 
a minimum of discretion before bug correction. But it should be public after 
patching or releasing.
