Vulnerability investigation and countermeasures
If a vulnerability is reported, an impact investigation is conducted on the product. We determine whether a vulnerability exists and the degree of impact, and if we determine that countermeasures are necessary, we implement them in cooperation with the product development division.
Information disclosure
Once the vulnerability countermeasures are completed in the product development department, we will create a security advisory. The security advisory’s release will be scheduled in accordance with JPCERT’s “Principle of release date consistency”.
If a vulnerability is disclosed to the public when its degree of impact and countermeasures are not clear, malicious third parties may develop and distribute malicious code (attack code) to attack products affected by the vulnerability. As a result, product users may be harmed. It is also important to have a certain level of coordination among the parties involved in the disclosure, especially in the case of vulnerabilities that affect multiple products. Releasing information independently without waiting for a public release date and time coordinated among the parties involved may put other companies’ product users at risk. In international coordination projects with overseas organizations, if the timing of information disclosure is incorrect (if the information is released independently before the public release date), the overseas organizations may take measures to remove the developer from future handling of vulnerability-related information.
Therefore, we will coordinate the release date with the “Information Security Early Warning Partnership” that we are registered as a product development vendor and proceed with countermeasures, as necessary. The release date and time will be determined within 45 days from the date when the handling of vulnerability related information is started as described in JPCERT/CC “Guidelines for Handling Vulnerability-related Information”.
The security advisory is published on our website below.
Link to Security Advisory
For those who have contributed to the discovery or resolution of vulnerabilities in our products, their acknowledgments are posted in the relevant security advisories after they agreed to post them. If multiple individuals or organizations contact us about the same vulnerability, we will publicly thank the first reporter.
