+## Security
+
+Microsoft takes the security of our software products and services seriously, which includes all source code repositories managed through our GitHub organizations, which include [Microsoft](https://github.com/microsoft), [Azure](https://github.com/Azure), [DotNet](https://github.com/dotnet), [AspNet](https://github.com/aspnet), [Xamarin](https://github.com/xamarin), and [our GitHub organizations](https://opensource.microsoft.com/).
+
+If you believe you have found a security vulnerability in any Microsoft-owned repository that meets [Microsoft's definition of a security vulnerability](https://aka.ms/opensource/security/definition), please report it to us as described below.
+
+## Reporting Security Issues
+
+**Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.**
+
+Instead, please report them to the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) at [https://msrc.microsoft.com/create-report](https://aka.ms/opensource/security/create-report).
+
+If you prefer to submit without logging in, send email to [secure@microsoft.com](mailto:secure@microsoft.com).  If possible, encrypt your message with our PGP key; please download it from the [Microsoft Security Response Center PGP Key page](https://aka.ms/opensource/security/pgpkey).
+
+You should receive a response within 24 hours. If for some reason you do not, please follow up via email to ensure we received your original message. Additional information can be found at [microsoft.com/msrc](https://aka.ms/opensource/security/msrc). 
+
+Please include the requested information listed below (as much as you can provide) to help us better understand the nature and scope of the possible issue:
+
+  * Type of issue (e.g. buffer overflow, SQL injection, cross-site scripting, etc.)
+  * Full paths of source file(s) related to the manifestation of the issue
+  * The location of the affected source code (tag/branch/commit or direct URL)
+  * Any special configuration required to reproduce the issue
+  * Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
+  * Proof-of-concept or exploit code (if possible)
+  * Impact of the issue, including how an attacker might exploit the issue
+
+This information will help us triage your report more quickly.
+
+If you are reporting for a bug bounty, more complete reports can contribute to a higher bounty award. Please visit our [Microsoft Bug Bounty Program](https://aka.ms/opensource/security/bounty) page for more details about our active programs.
+
+## Preferred Languages
+
+We prefer all communications to be in English.

+## Service Fabric Packages and Versions
+This release is for Windows only.
+
+The following packages and versions are part of this release:
+
+| Service | Platform | Version |
+|---------|----------|---------|
+|Service Fabric Runtime| Windows | 8.2.1748.9590 |
+|Service Fabric for Windows Server|Service Fabric Standalone Installer Package | 8.2.1748.9590 |
+|.NET SDK |Windows .NET SDK <br> Microsoft.ServiceFabric <br> Reliable Services and Reliable Actors <br> ASP.NET Core Service Fabric integration| 5.2.1748 <br> 8.2.1748 <br> 5.2.1748 <br> 5.2.1748 |
+|Java SDK  |Java for Linux SDK  | 1.0.6 |
+|Service Fabric PowerShell and CLI | AzureRM PowerShell Module  <br> SFCTL |  0.3.15  <br> 11.0.1 |
+
+
+## Service Fabric Feature and Bug Fixes
+This release includes quality improvements only and does not contain bug fixes to specific issue.
+
+
+## Retirement and Deprecation Path Callouts
+* As aligned with [Microsoft .NET and .NET Core - Microsoft Lifecycle | Microsoft Learn](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/microsoft-net-and-net-core), SF Runtime has dropped support for Net Core 3.1 as of December 2022. For supported versions see [Service Fabric supported Linux versions](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/service-fabric/service-fabric-versions#current-versions-1) and migrate applications as needed.
+* Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will reach its 5-year end-of-life window on April 30, 2023. Service Fabric runtime will drop support for 18.04 LTS after the published date, and we recommend moving your clusters and applications to supported versions listed here: [Service Fabric supported Linux versions](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/service-fabric/service-fabric-versions#supported-linux-versions-and-support-end-date)
+* Service Fabric runtime will soon stop supporting BinaryFormatter based remoting exception serialization by default and move to using Data Contract Serialization (DCS) based remoting exception serialization by default. Current applications using it will continue to work as-is, but Service Fabric strongly recommends moving to using Data Contract Serialization (DCS) based remoting exception instead.
+* Service Fabric runtime will be archiving and removing Service Fabric runtime version 6.4 packages and older, as well as SDK version 3.3 packages and older from the package Download Center in Apr 2023. Archiving/Removing will affect application scaling and re-imaging of virtual machines in a Service Fabric Cluster running on unsupported versions. After older versions are removed/archived, this may cause failure while rolling back when the current in-progress upgrade has errors.
+* Migrate Azure Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL) library to Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL) library, since ADAL will be out of support after December 2022. This will impact customers using AAD for authentication in Service Fabric for below features:<ul><li>Powershell, StandAlone Service Fabric Explorer(SFX), TokenValicationService</li><li>FabricBRS using AAD for keyvault authentication</li><li>KeyVaultWrapper</li><li>ms.test.winfabric.current test framework</li><li>KXM tool</li><li>AzureClusterDeployer tool</li></ul>For more information see: [MSAL Migration] (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/msal-migration)
