ParagonsDAO

ParagonsDAO is a community of gamers and investors bridging gaps across traditional gaming, web3 gaming, and decentralized finance (DeFi). Through ParagonsDAO Token ($PDT), you can share in the success of ParagonsDAO (and our game/business partners) through ownership and direction of our Treasury, revenue streams, community, proprietary DeFi solutions and much more!

ParagonsDAO provides rewards in USDC. For more details about the payment process, please view the Rewards by Threat Level section further below.

KYC Requirement

ParagonsDAO understands the nature of the industry and wants to preserve privacy where possible. The provision of KYC is required to receive a reward of over USD 15,000 for this bug bounty program where the following information will be required to be provided:

• National ID

KYC information is only required on confirmation of the validity of a bug report.

Responsible Publication

ParagonsDAO adheres to category 2 : Notice required. This Policy determines what information whitehats are allowed to make public from their submitted bug reports. For more information about the category selected, please refer to our Responsible Publication page.

Primacy of Impact vs Primacy of Rules

ParagonsDAO adheres to the Primacy of Rules, which means that the whole bug bounty program is run strictly under the terms stated in this page.

Known Issue Assurance

ParagonsDAO commits to providing Known Issue Assurance to bug submissions through their program. This means that ParagonsDAO will either disclose known issues publicly or at the very least privately via a self-reported bug submission in order to allow for a more objective and streamlined mediation process to prove that an issue is known. Otherwise, assuming the bug report itself is valid, it would result in the bug report being considered in-scope and due 100% of the reward with respect to the bug bounty program terms.

Rewards are distributed according to the impact the vulnerability could otherwise cause based on the Impacts in Scope table further below.

Repeatable Attack Limitations

In cases of repeatable attacks for smart contract bugs, only the first attack will be counted, regardless of whether the smart contract is upgradable, pausable, or killable.

Previous Audits

ParagonsDAO has provided these completed audit review reports for reference. Any unfixed vulnerability mentioned in these reports are not eligible for a reward.

Proof of Concept (PoC) Requirements

A PoC is required for the following severity levels:

• Smart Contract, Critical Severity Level
• Smart Contract, High Severity Level
• Smart Contract, Medium Severity Level
• Websites & Application, Critical Severity Level
• Websites & Application, High Severity Level
• Websites & Application, Medium Severity Level

All PoCs submitted must comply with the Immunefi-wide PoC Guidelines and Rules. Bug report submissions without a PoC when a PoC is required will not be provided with a reward.

Reward Payment Terms

Payouts are handled by the ParagonsDAO team directly and are denominated in USD. However, payments are done in USDC.

All code of ParagonsDAO can be found at https://github.com/ParagonsDAO/pdt-staking. Documentation for the assets provided in the table can be found at https://docs.paragonsdao.com/docs/staking/staking-guide.

Unless explicitly listed, only pages of the web/app assets in addition to the direct link are considered in-scope of the bug bounty program. Other subdomains are not considered as in-scope. However, for subdomain takeovers that lead to an impact on the in-scope asset, please refer to our page about Reported Subdomain Takeovers.

These impacts are out of scope for this bug bounty program.

All Categories

• Impacts requiring attacks that the reporter has already exploited themselves, leading to damage
• Impacts caused by attacks requiring access to leaked keys/credentials
• Impacts caused by attacks requiring access to privileged addresses (governance, strategist) except in such cases where the contracts are intended to have no privileged access to functions that make the attack possible
• Impacts relying on attacks involving the depegging of an external stablecoin where the attacker does not directly cause the depegging due to a bug in code
• Mentions of secrets, access tokens, API keys, private keys, etc. in Github will be considered out of scope without proof that they are in-use in production
• Best practice recommendations
• Feature requests
• Impacts on test files and configuration files unless stated otherwise in the bug bounty program

Smart Contracts

• Incorrect data supplied by third party oracles
  • Not to exclude oracle manipulation/flash loan attacks
• Impacts requiring basic economic and governance attacks (e.g. 51% attack)
• Lack of liquidity impacts
• Impacts from Sybil attacks
• Impacts involving centralization risks
• Best practice recommendations

Web/App

• Theoretical impacts without any proof or demonstration
• Impacts involving attacks requiring physical access to the victim device
• Impacts involving attacks requiring access to the local network of the victim
• Reflected plain text injection (e.g. url parameters, path, etc.)
  • This does not exclude reflected HTML injection with or without JavaScript
  • This does not exclude persistent plain text injection
• Any impacts involving self-XSS
• Captcha bypass using OCR without impact demonstration
• CSRF with no state modifying security impact (e.g. logout CSRF)
• Impacts related to missing HTTP Security Headers (such as X-FRAME-OPTIONS) or cookie security flags (such as “httponly”) without demonstration of impact
• Server-side non-confidential information disclosure, such as IPs, server names, and most stack traces
• Impacts causing only the enumeration or confirmation of the existence of users or tenants
• Impacts caused by vulnerabilities requiring un-prompted, in-app user actions that are not part of the normal app workflows
• Lack of SSL/TLS best practices
• Impacts that only require DDoS
• UX and UI impacts that do not materially disrupt use of the platform
• Impacts primarily caused by browser/plugin defects
• Leakage of non sensitive API keys (e.g. Etherscan, Infura, Alchemy, etc.)
• Any vulnerability exploit requiring browser bugs for exploitation (e.g. CSP bypass)
• SPF/DMARC misconfigured records
• Missing HTTP Headers without demonstrated impact
• Automated scanner reports without demonstrated impact
• UI/UX best practice recommendations

The following activities are prohibited by this bug bounty program:

• Any testing on mainnet or public testnet deployed code; all testing should be done on local-forks of either public testnet or mainnet
• Any testing with pricing oracles or third-party smart contracts
• Attempting phishing or other social engineering attacks against our employees and/or customers
• Any testing with third-party systems and applications (e.g. browser extensions) as well as websites (e.g. SSO providers, advertising networks)
• Any denial of service attacks that are executed against project assets
• Automated testing of services that generates significant amounts of traffic
• Public disclosure of an unpatched vulnerability in an embargoed bounty
