| Given that WASI is a set of Capability-based APIs, all unauthorized actions are not supposed to happen. Most of the above security concerns can be alleviated. What remains for us is to ensure that Wasm modules ' execution is secure. In other words, do not compromise the sandbox. Unless it is explicitly disabled beforehand. |

| The _status_ represents the configuration _product-mini/platforms/linux/CMakeLists.txt_. There may be minor differences between the top-level CMakeLists and platform-specific CMakeLists. | ||
|
|

| Users can turn those features on or off using compilation options. If a relevant compilation option is not available(`N/A`), it indicates that the feature is permanently enabled. |

this is misleading because what we have is not the phase 4 version.

the expected audiences and purposes of this document are not obvious to me.

The document is intended to:
- Clarify to the community and TSC which types of issues will be recognized as security issues.
- Provide a step-by-step guide on how to handle a security issue once it has been identified.
- Ensure maintainers distinguish security issues from all reported community issues and address them with caution.
- Encourage accurate reporting of security issues, rather than categorizing them as normal issues.
