SORA

The SORA community envisions a new economic world order — one that is truly decentralized and democratic. SORA is building to deliver financial inclusion for all without discrimination and provide a better method to manage day-to-day finances.

SORA is both a supranational world economic system that decentralizes the concept of a central bank as well as a network in the Polkadot ecosystem that will connect to the Polkadot relay chain and the parachains with built-in tools focused on DeFi.

The SORA network excels at providing tools for decentralized applications that use digital assets, such as atomic token swaps, bridging tokens to other blockchains, and creating programmatic rules involving digital assets. Besides Polkaswap, one of the main applications running on the SORA network is the SORA decentralized economic system itself.

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 classifications for websites/apps, smart contracts, and blockchains/DLTs, focusing on the impact of the vulnerability reported.

All bug reports must come with a Proof of Concept (PoC) with an end-effect impacting an asset-in-scope in order to be considered for a reward. Explanations and statements are not accepted as PoC and code is required.

Payouts are handled by the SORA team directly and are denominated in USD. However, payouts are done in TBCD and can be vested with the choice of the ratio at the discretion of the team.

If an impact can be caused to any other asset managed by SORA 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 the consideration by the project.

The latest release tag for the asset “https://github.com/sora-xor/polkaswap-exchange-web“ can be found here - https://github.com/sora-xor/polkaswap-exchange-web/tags

The following vulnerabilities are excluded from the rewards for this bug bounty program:

• Attacks that the reporter has already exploited themselves, leading to damage
• Attacks requiring access to leaked keys/credentials
• Attacks requiring access to privileged addresses (governance, strategist)

Smart Contracts and Blockchain

• Incorrect data supplied by third party oracles
  • Not to exclude oracle manipulation/flash loan attacks
• Basic economic governance attacks (e.g. 51% attack)
• Lack of liquidity
• Best practice critiques
• Sybil attacks
• Centralization risks

Websites and Apps

• Theoretical vulnerabilities without any proof or demonstration
• Attacks requiring physical access to the victim device
• Attacks requiring access to the victim’s local network
• Reflected plain text injection eg: url parameters, path, etc.
  • This does not exclude reflected HTML injection with or without javascript
  • This does not exclude persistent plain text injection
• Self-XSS
• Captcha bypass using OCR without impact demonstration
• CSRF with no state modifying security impact (ex: logout CSRF)
• 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
• Vulnerabilities used only to enumerate or confirm the existence of users or tenants
• Vulnerabilities requiring un-prompted, in-app user actions that are not part of the normal app workflows
• Lack of SSL/TLS best practices
• DDoS vulnerabilities
• Feature requests
• Issues related to the frontend without concrete impact and PoC
• Best practices issues without concrete impact and PoC
• Vulnerabilities primarily caused by browser/plugin defects
• Leakage of non sensitive api keys ex: etherscan, Infura, Alchemy, etc.
• Any vulnerability exploit requiring browser bugs for exploitation. ex: CSP bypass

Known issues here are out of scope for this program https://github.com/sora-xor/sora2-evm-contracts/commit/1e13152b7f7cf25abf8f6d44837bcd891a736b94/

The following activities are prohibited by this bug bounty program:
