Bug Bounty Program

Overview

Transient Labs is the premier innovation platform for web3 creators, projects, and ecosystems around the world. Our mission is to unlock the potential of blockchain and smart contract technology, and redefine what ownership means now and in the future.

For more information about Transient Labs, please visithttps://transientlabs.xyz

This bug bounty program is focused on their smart contracts and is focused on preventing:

  • Loss of funds or NFTs by freezing or theft

  • Denial of service (smart contract is made unable to operate)

  • Access control is bypassed, including privilege escalation

  • Smart contract does not behave as intended

This is an overlay bug bounty program for Transient Labs smart contracts, websites, and applications.

Reward By Threat Level

Rewards are distributed according to the impact of the vulnerability based on the Immunefi Vulnerability Severity Classification System V2.3. This is a simplified 4-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.

The rewards stated here are additive to any existing bug bounty programs hosted by projects that are currently using Transient Labs technology.

Critical and high severity bug reports must come with a PoC in order to be considered for a reward.

Payouts are handled by the Transient Labs team directly and are denominated in USD. However, payouts are done in USDC.

Out of Scope & Rules

General

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

  • 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 & Blockchain

  • Incorrect data supplied by third party oracles

    • Not to exclude oracle manipulation/flash loan attacks

  • Basic economic governance attacks (e.g. 51% attack)

  • Susceptibility to block timestamp manipulation

  • Lack of liquidity

  • Best practice critiques

  • Sybil attacks

  • Impacts involving centralization risks

Websites & Apps

  • 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

  • Non-future-proof NFT rendering

Prohibited Actions

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
