What

Add /.well-known/security.txt under static/ so the canonical site serves one.

Why

https://coredns.io/.well-known/security.txt returns 404. RFC 9116 makes /.well-known/security.txt the standard, machine-discoverable pointer to a project's security reporting channel. This project already runs a security program with a private disclosure address; this just makes it discoverable by the convention. Served verbatim from static/, future Expires per §2.5.5. Signed off per DCO.

I used AI assistance to identify this and draft the file; I verified the live 404 and the reporting channel myself.

The canonical site serves no security.txt at the well-known location, so a
researcher following RFC 9116 has no machine-discoverable pointer to the
project's security reporting channel. Added under static/, pointing at the
existing private disclosure address and security policy.
