Program Overview

Immunefi is the leading bug bounty platform on web3 with the world’s largest bounties.

Immunefi is interested in securing their beta release Vaults System and website. Primary areas of concern are around the modification of information on the website, leakage and loss of client data, and leakage of communicated information from clients to the company.

Immunefi is aiming to decentralize the bug bounty space to provide more trust between whitehats and projects through releasing a smart contract Vaults System.

The first iteration of this Vaults System contains two features: 1) projects on Immunefi can demonstrate proof-of-assets by depositing assets into vaults that are ready to be used to pay out bounties, and 2) projects can conduct payments to whitehats fully on-chain within the Immunefi dashboard.

Primary areas of concern are the permanent modification of information on the application, leakage and loss of client data, and loss of assets in the vaults.

Rewards by Threat Level

Rewards are distributed according to the impact of the vulnerability based on the Immunefi Vulnerability Severity Classification System V2.2 This is a simplified 5-level scale, with separate scales for websites/apps and smart contracts/blockchains, encompassing everything from consequence of exploitation to privilege required to likelihood of a successful exploit.

All Smart Contract bug reports require a runnable PoC and a suggestion for a fix to be eligible for a reward. Explanations and statements are not accepted as PoC, and code is required.

Bug reports covering previously-discovered bugs are not eligible for the program. If a bug report covers a known issue, it may be rejected, and Immunefi will provide proof that the issue is already known. Previous audits of the Vaults System completed by Immunefi and External Auditors are linked below

Known Issues:

KYC

For all submissions, Immunefi may request the researcher's country of residence before releasing payment. Some countries are restricted when it comes to payments. This bug bounty program is only open to individuals who reside outside of the countries that are restricted by OFAC and by UNSC resolutions.

For critical submissions, Immunefi will request government identification. KYC verification will be completed by an external service before payment can be released.

Payouts are handled by Immunefi directly and are denominated in USDC.

Assets in scope

Documentation of the Vaults System can be found https://github.com/immunefi-team/vaults/blob/main/README.md

All smart contracts for the new Vaults System can be found at https://github.com/immunefi-team/vaults

However, only those in the Assets in Scope table are considered as in-scope of the bug bounty program.

Impacts in scope

Only the following impacts are accepted within this bug bounty program. All other impacts are not considered as in-scope, even if they affect something in the assets in scope table.

    Impact

Only the following impacts are accepted within this bug bounty program. All other impacts are not considered as in-scope, even if they affect something in the assets in scope table.

These accepted impacts are then based on the severity classification system of this bug bounty program. When submitting a bug report, please select the severity level you feel best corresponds to the severity classification system as long as the impact itself is one of the listed items.

If an impact can be caused to any other asset managed by Immunefi that isn’t on this table but for which the impact is in the Impacts in Scope section below, you are encouraged to submit it for consideration by Immunefi.
