This section still contains the default GitHub template text rather than a project-specific supported-versions policy. Please replace the placeholder guidance with concrete support commitments (e.g., which Electron Forge major/minor lines receive security fixes and for how long).

The supported versions table appears to be copied from the default template (e.g., 5.1.x / 4.0.x) and doesn’t match this repo’s documented Electron Forge versions (README references v7.x). Please update the version ranges to reflect the actual supported release lines for this project.

Use this section to tell people how to report a vulnerability.

Tell them where to go, how often they can expect to get an update on a
reported vulnerability, what to expect if the vulnerability is accepted or
declined, etc.

This vulnerability reporting section is still placeholder text. Please specify an actual reporting channel (e.g., GitHub Security Advisories / private email), expected response timelines, and what reporters should include so reports can be triaged effectively.
