Policy

Our team of dedicated security professionals works vigilantly to help keep customer information secure. We recognize the important role that security researchers and our user community play in helping to keep XTRM and our customers secure. If you discover a site or product vulnerability please notify us using the guidelines below.

Program Terms

Please note that your participation in the Bug Bounty Program is voluntary and subject to the terms and conditions set forth on this page (“Program Terms”). By submitting a site or product vulnerability to XTRM, Inc. (“XTRM”) you acknowledge that you have read and agreed to these Program Terms.

These Program Terms supplement the terms of XTRM User Agreement, the XTRM Acceptable Use Policy, and any other agreement in which you have entered with XTRM (collectively “XTRM Agreements”). The terms of those XTRM Agreements will apply to your use of, and participation in, the Bug Bounty Program as if fully set forth herein. If any inconsistency exists between the terms of the XTRM Agreements and these Program Terms, these Program Terms will control, but only with regard to the Bug Bounty Program.

To encourage responsible disclosures, XTRM commits that, if we conclude, in our sole discretion, that a disclosure respects and meets all the guidelines of these Program Terms and the XTRM Agreements, XTRM will not bring a private action against you or refer a matter for public inquiry.

As part of your research, do not modify any files or data, including permissions, and do not intentionally view or access any data beyond what is needed to prove the vulnerability.

Eligibility Requirements

To be eligible for the Bug Bounty Program, you must not:

  • Be a resident of, or make your Submission from, a country against which the United States has issued export sanctions or other trade restrictions (e.g., Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria);

If XTRM discovers that you meet any of the criteria above, XTRM will remove you from the Bug Bounty Program and disqualify you from receiving any Bounty Payments.

Disclosure Guidelines

By providing a Submission or agreeing to the Program Terms, You agree that you may not publicly disclose your findings or the contents of your Submission to any third parties in any way without XTRM’s prior written approval.

Failure to comply with the Program Terms will result in immediate disqualification from the Bug Bounty Program and ineligibility for receiving any Bounty Payments.

Scope for Web Applications

In-Scope Vulnerabilities

Accepted, in-scope vulnerabilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Log4Shell

    • Log4Shell RCEs, Data Exfil, WAF bypass will be treated as high or critical based on severity

    • Ping-backs where you can Interpolate the environment, hostname, IP address, or date or time are rated a medium

    • If a reproducible proof of concept is not included the report will be closed as informative

  • Disclosure of sensitive or personally identifiable information

  • Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

  • Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) for sensitive functions in a privileged context

  • Server-side or remote code execution (RCE)

  • Authentication or authorization flaws, including insecure direct object references and authentication bypass

  • Injection vulnerabilities, including SQL and XML injection

  • Directory traversal

  • Significant security misconfiguration with a verifiable vulnerability

  • Exposed credentials, disclosed by XTRM or its employees, that pose a valid risk to an in scope asset


Out-of-Scope Vulnerabilities

Certain vulnerabilities are considered out-of-scope for the Bug Bounty Program. Those out-of-scope vulnerabilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Any physical attacks against XTRM property or data centers

  • Reports that involve a secondary user account where an existing business relationship is being leveraged and the impact is limited solely to the parent account

  • Username enumeration on customer facing systems (i.e. using server responses to determine whether a given account exists)

  • Attacks involving payment fraud, theft, or malicious merchant accounts

  • Man-in-the-Middle attacks

  • Vulnerabilities involving stolen credentials or physical access to a device

  • Social engineering attacks, including those targeting or impersonating internal employees by any means (e.g. customer service chat features, social media, personal domains, etc.)

  • Open redirection, except in the following circumstances:

    • Clicking a XTRM-owned URL immediately results in a redirection, and/or

    • A redirection results in the loss of sensitive data (e.g. session tokens, PII, etc)

  • Host header injections without a specific, demonstrable impact

  • Scanner output or scanner-generated reports

  • Vulnerabilities found through DDoS or spam attacks. If you discover a vulnerability and believe it can cause DoS (for example, a logical flaw or known CVE), please submit it and we will review on a case-by-case basis. Do not attempt or execute DDoS attacks.

  • Self-XSS, which includes any payload entered by the victim

  • Any vulnerabilities requiring significant and unlikely interaction by the victim, such as disabling browser controls

  • Login/logout CSRF

  • Content spoofing without embedding an external link or JavaScript

  • Vulnerabilities only affecting users of outdated, unpatched, or unsupported browsers and platforms, including any version of Internet Explorer

  • Vulnerabilities that only affect one browser will be considered on a case-by-case basis, and may be closed as informative due to the reduced attack surface

  • Information disclosure of public or non-protected information (e.g. code in a public repository, server banners, etc.), or information disclosed outside of XTRM's control (e.g. a personal, non-employee repository; a list from a previous infodump; etc.)

  • Exposed credentials that are either no longer valid, or do not pose a risk to an in scope asset

  • Any XSS that requires Flash. Flash is disabled by default in most modern browsers, thus greatly reducing the attack surface and associated risk.

  • Any other submission determined to be low risk, based on unlikely or theoretical attack vectors, requiring significant user interaction, or resulting in minimal impact

  • Vulnerabilities on third party libraries without showing specific impact to the target application (e.g. a CVE with no exploit)
