Where to report

The one public program XCP-ng runs.

Amounts are the top reward per severity in the currency each program pays. First response is the platform's measured average when it publishes one, else what the policy promises.

What is in scope

14 targets. 5 excluded.

  • https://xcp-ng.org

    Web

  • Backup and export paths, including XVA import and export and the archives they produce and consume

    Products and areas

  • Networking, including the Open vSwitch integration and the host network configuration applied on top of it

    Products and areas

  • Pool membership and the trust relationship between pool members, including the pool secret

    Products and areas

  • Storage in full: the storage manager, the SMAPI drivers and VDI handling across local, NFS, iSCSI and other backends

    Products and areas

  • The console proxy and any remote display path bridging a client to a guest console

    Products and areas

  • The control domain and everything shipped inside it, including the patched Xen build XCP-ng distributes

    Products and areas

  • The guest tools and every path a guest uses to talk to the control domain

    Products and areas

  • The installer and the host upgrade path

    Products and areas

  • The update and patching mechanism, including package signature verification

    Products and areas

  • The XAPI management stack and its XML-RPC and JSON-RPC API, including authentication and the role-based access control model

    Products and areas

  • The XCP-ng specific patches and packages layered over the upstream Xen and XenServer heritage

    Products and areas

  • Vates publishes a dedicated security address for XCP-ng and coordinates hypervisor-level issues through the Xen pre-disclosure list it has belonged to since 2018, while also tracking Citrix Hypervisor advisories. The path is documented on the docs site rather than in a security.txt file, and no component of the distribution is carved out

    Products and areas

  • XCP-ng's side of the interface Xen Orchestra talks to

    Products and areas

No target matches. Try part of a host name, such as the company name.

Out of scope 5

Don't test these. A program can exclude a host another program covers; the program you report to decides.

  • Citrix Hypervisor code rather than XCP-ng's distribution and patching of it

  • Defects in upstream Xen itself, which belong to the Xen Security Response Team under the XSA process, unless XCP-ng's own patches are the cause

  • Guest operating system defects

  • Operator configuration such as exposing the management interface to an untrusted network

  • Xen Orchestra's own codebase, which is a separate product with separate reporting
