Impacts in Scope

Impacts Body

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.

Severity
Critical
Title

Direct loss of funds

Severity
Critical
Title

Permanent freezing of funds (fix requires hardfork)

Severity
Critical
Title

Direct theft of any user funds, whether at-rest or in-motion, other than unclaimed yield

Severity
Critical
Title

Permanent freezing of funds

Severity
Critical
Title

Network not being able to confirm new transactions (total network shutdown)

Severity
Critical
Title

Unintended permanent chain split requiring hard fork (network partition requiring hard fork)

Severity

Title

Unintended chain split (network partition)

Severity
High
Title

Theft of protocol revenue

Severity
High
Title

Theft of Yield

Severity
Medium
Title

Temporary freezing of network transactions by delaying one block by 500% or more of the average block time

Severity
Medium
Title

Increasing network processing node resource consumption by at least 30% without brute force actions, compared to the preceding 24 hours

Severity
Medium
Title

Shutdown of greater than or equal to 30% of network processing nodes without brute force actions, but does not shut down the network

Out of scope

Program's Out of Scope information
  • Any affected code, from dependant Solana client implementations (eg. Agave or Firedancer) should be reported upstream.
  • Example code (https://github.com/jito-foundation/jito-programs/tree/master/example-programs)
  • any findings should be exploitable without being a trusted third party, findings involving a trusted third party for example BAM node may be considered on a discretionary basis since these would be more defense in depth controls rather than a direct exploit path
  • any findings which assume misconfiguration, for example a deployment of a program gone wrong or a validator misconfigured are not in scope
  • any findings which can only be demonstrated using unit tests only are out of scope. The attack must be a possible attack vector under realistic network/deployment conditions to be considered. A unit test can be used to demonistrat and can be a sufficient POC if it meets this criteria but can not be the sole determining factor.
Default Out of Scope and rules

Blockchain/DLT specific

  • 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

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 (including, but not limited to: governance and strategist contracts) without additional modifications to the privileges attributed
  • 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
  • Impacts requiring phishing or other social engineering attacks against project's employees and/or customers
