<h2 id="specifications">Supported Markdown specifications</h2>
We actively support the features of the following [Markdown flavors](https://github.com/commonmark/CommonMark/wiki/Markdown-Flavors).
| Flavor | Version | Status |
| :--------------------------------------------------------- | :------ | :----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| The original markdown.pl | -- | |
| [CommonMark](http://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/) | 0.29 | [Work in progress](https://github.com/markedjs/marked/issues/1202) |
| [GitHub Flavored Markdown](https://github.github.com/gfm/) | 0.29 | [Work in progress](https://github.com/markedjs/marked/issues/1202) |
2018-03-11 17:16:48 -04:00
By supporting the above Markdown flavors, it's possible that Marked can help you use other flavors as well; however, these are not actively supported by the community.
<h2 id="security">Security</h2>
The only completely secure system is the one that doesn't exist in the first place. Having said that, we take the security of Marked very seriously.
2020-08-15 19:34:26 -04:00
Therefore, please disclose potential security issues by email to the project [committers](/authors.html) as well as the [listed owners within NPM](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/owner). We will provide an initial assessment of security reports within 48 hours and should apply patches within 2 weeks (also, feel free to contribute a fix for the issue).
