Naming of particular products or brands should not be seen as

endorsements, with the exception of the term "GNU/Linux". We

wholeheartedly endorse the use of GNU/Linux; it is an extremely

versatile, stable,

Although the Bugzilla development team has taken great care to
|
|
ensure that all exploitable bugs have been fixed, security holes surely
|
|
exist in any piece of code. Great care should be taken both in
|
|
the installation and usage of this software. The Bugzilla development
|
|
team members assume no liability for your use of Bugzilla. You have
|
|
the source code, and are responsible for auditing it yourself to ensure
|
|
your security needs are met.
