Amounts are the top reward per severity in the currency each program pays. Green marks the highest per severity. First response is the platform's measured average when it publishes one, else what the policy promises.
What is in scope
15 targets across all 2 programs, each listed once with the programs that cover it. 6 excluded.
-
Caching and information flow, covering cache contexts, cache tags, the page and dynamic page caches, and error output that could leak content or configuration to a session that should not see it
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
File handling as a whole: upload validation, the public and private delivery paths, and any route by which an authenticated low-privilege user reaches PHP execution or arbitrary file write
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The access system in full: node grants, entity access handlers, the permission and role machinery, and every check built on top of them
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The database layer end to end, covering the abstraction layer, the query builder and anywhere a query is assembled from data an untrusted user controls
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The Form API, CSRF token validation, and the routing and request pipeline that decides which controller runs for which session
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The render pipeline and Twig templating, where data reaches markup without the escaping the theme layer is supposed to apply
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The REST and JSON:API core modules that expose entity data over HTTP with their own access checks
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The security team takes reports at [email protected] against any supported core release, and nothing narrower than core is carved out. Google's Tier 1 patch row names the same asset, github.com/drupal/drupal
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The update, plugin and configuration-management machinery an administrator drives a running site through
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
-
The user and session subsystem: registration, login, password reset, session handling and account cancellation
Products and areas
Covered by Sorona
No target matches. Try part of a host name, such as the company name.
Out of scope 6
Don't test these. A program can exclude a host another program covers; the program you report to decides.
-
A patch the maintainers or the security team decline, since the reward panel states it will not second-guess a maintainer's decision
Sorona
-
Contributed modules and themes from drupal.org, which are separate projects with their own maintainers and are not the repository Google's Tier 1 row names
Sorona
-
One-line fixes for non-exploitable crashes, which the Patch Rewards rules exclude by name along with resource-exhaustion denial of service
Sorona
-
PHP itself and other upstream dependencies, which have their own separate pathway rather than being defects in Drupal core
Sorona
-
Reports that only demonstrate impact with an administrator account already in hand, since a full administrator is inside the trust boundary by design
Sorona
-
Site-specific misconfiguration: a permission an administrator granted, or a role that was set up more broadly than intended
Sorona
