+## Supported Versions
+
+Only the [latest version](https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/releases) of BookStack is supported.

+feel free to raise it via a standard GitHub bug report issue.
+
+If the issue could have a security impact to BookStack instances, please use one of the below 
+methods to report the vulnerability:

+
+Please be patient while the vulnerability is being reviewed. Deploying the fix to address the vulnerability
+can often take a little time due to the amount of preparation required, to ensure the vulnerability has
+been covered, and to create the content required to adequately notify the user-base.
+
