Get a CVE identifier from [mitre.org](https://cveform.mitre.org/); 4. Send the patch to the reporter for review; 5. Apply the patch to all maintained versions of html-sanitizer; 6. Package new versions for all affected versions; 7. Update the [public security advisories database](https://github.com/FriendsOfPHP/security-advisories) maintained by the FriendsOfPHP organization.
