The proof-of-concept should be of high quality and include the minimum amount of code possible to demonstrate the issue. This can include video recordings, debugger output, or other relevant information. Proof-of-concept: A report should include a proof-of-concept that effectively demonstrates the vulnerability. This analysis should be thorough and provide enough information to understand the underlying cause of the vulnerability. Root cause analysis: A report should include a full root cause analysis that describes why the issue is occurring and what Android source code should be patched to fix it. The description should be detailed enough to easily understand the issue and begin working on a fix. There are a few key elements we are looking for:Īccurate and detailed description: A report should clearly and accurately describe the vulnerability, including the device name and version. The highest quality and most critical vulnerabilities are now eligible for larger rewards of up to $15,000! We believe that this new system will encourage researchers to provide more detailed reports, which will help us address reported issues more quickly and enable researchers to receive higher bounty rewards. This system will rate vulnerability reports as High, Medium, or Low quality based on the level of detail provided in the report.
We are pleased to announce that we are implementing a new quality rating system for security vulnerability reports to encourage more security research in higher impact areas of our products and ensure the security of our users. One way we do this is through our Vulnerability Reward Programs (VRP), which incentivize security researchers to find and report vulnerabilities in our operating system and devices. This is why at Google and Android, security is a top priority, and we are constantly working to make our products more secure. Posted by Sarah Jacobus, Vulnerability Rewards TeamĪs technology continues to advance, so do efforts by cybercriminals who look to exploit vulnerabilities in software and devices.
