Flow Protocol: Program info

The following defines the rewards for Flow protocol and cadence:

Severity: Critical Reward: $100,000 USD Criteria:

• Emergency remediation
• Public announcement
• Hard-forking of a smart contract

Severity: High Reward: $50,000 USD Criteria:

• Immediate analysis and action is necessary
• Public disclosure in most cases
• Exploitation would significantly affect the Flow ecosystem
• Eventual fix of smart contract

Severity: Medium Reward: $10,000 USD Criteria:

• Remediation required, but impact is not significant

Severity: Low Reward: $1000 USD Criteria:

• Low risk issues like misconfigurations with no proven path to exploit

To qualify for a reward, the vulnerability must fall within our Assets In Scope, comply with our Responsible Disclosure Guidelines, and meet the following criteria:

1. Previously unknown - When reported, we must not have already known of the issue, either by internal discovery or other report.
2. Material impact - Demonstrable vulnerability where, if exploited, the vulnerability would materially affect the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of our assets.
3. Requires action - The vulnerability requires some mitigation.
4. Your participation is not prohibited by applicable law.

OUT OF SCOPE VULNERABILITIES (Smart Contracts)

• Theoretical vulnerabilities without any proof or demonstration
• Old compiler version
• The compiler version is not locked
• Vulnerabilities in imported contracts
• Code style guide violations
• Redundant code
• Gas optimizations
• Best practice issues
• Vulnerabilities that can be exploited through front-run attacks only

• Avoid using web application scanners for automatic vulnerability searching which generates massive traffic
• Make every effort not to damage or restrict the availability of products, services, or infrastructure
• Avoid compromising any personal data, interruption, or degradation of any service
• Don’t access or modify other user data, localize all tests to your accounts
• Perform testing only within the scope
• Don’t exploit any DoS/DDoS vulnerabilities, social engineering attacks, or spam
• Don’t spam forms or account creation flows using automated scanners
• In case you find chain vulnerabilities we’ll pay only for vulnerability with the highest severity.
• Don’t break any law and stay in the defined scope
• Any details of found vulnerabilities must not be communicated to anyone who is not a HackenProof Team or an authorized employee of this Company without appropriate permission

Flow was built from the ground up with security in mind. Our code, infrastructure, and development methodology help us keep our users safe.

We appreciate and encourage the security researcher community to report potential vulnerabilities in our assets.If you identify a vulnerability, please notify us using the following guidelines.

Things To Do:

• Make every effort to avoid unauthorized access, use, downloading, destruction, or disclosure of personal or confidential information.
• Avoid actions which could impact user experience, disrupt production systems, change, or destroy data during security testing.
• Use our provided communication channels to report vulnerability information to us.
• Keep information about any vulnerability you discover confidential between us for a reasonable time that will allow us to review and resolve the vulnerability or until we have notified you that the vulnerability has been resolved.
• Only test assets covered by the “Assets In Scope” section.

Things Not To Do:

• Do not include Sensitive Data in your reports. See the “Sensitive Data” section for further information.
• Do not perform any attack that may cause denial-of-service to the network, hosts, applications, or services on any port or protocol.
• Do not use automated scanners to crawl us or hammer endpoints.
• Do not attempt non-technical attacks such as social engineering, phishing, or physical attacks against our employees, users, or infrastructure.
• Do not perform physical testing such as office and data-center access (e.g., open doors, tailgating, card reader attacks, or physically destructive testing).
• Do not test assets explicitly listed in the “Assets Out of Scope” section.

We are happy to thank everyone who submits valid reports which help us improve the security. However, only those that meet the following eligibility requirements may receive a monetary reward:

• You must be the first reporter of a vulnerability.
• The vulnerability must be a qualifying vulnerability
• Any vulnerability found must be reported no later than 24 hours after discovery and exclusively through hackenproof.com
• You must send a clear textual description of the report along with steps to reproduce the issue, include attachments such as screenshots or proof of concept code as necessary.
• You must not be a former or current employee of us or one of its contractor.
• ONLY USE the EMAIL under which you registered your HackenProof account (in case of violation, no bounty can be awarded)
• Provide detailed but to-the point reproduction steps
