Description

At Glassdoor we take our security very seriously and welcome any responsible disclosure of potential gaps in our systems. We believe that working with skilled security researchers across the globe is crucial in providing a trusted and secure service to help people everywhere find jobs and companies they love.Please read through the following details to help you focus on the areas most important to us. Additionally, Glassdoor may award an additional reward bonus for exceptional reports. This will be done at Glassdoor's discretion. Good luck, and happy hunting! Engagement Rules Respect our users' privacy If during your research you happen to encounter any information about another user or other individual, immediately stop and report this to Glassdoor. To participate in this program, you only need to explain the technical vulnerability you discovered You must avoid any viewing, copying, altering, destroying, or otherwise interacting with any data, in particular data of other individuals, to which you may gain access through your research. If a vulnerability provides unintended access to data, limit the amount of data you access to the minimum required for effectively demonstrating the vulnerability; cease testing, and submit a report immediately if you encounter any user data during testing. This may include Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Diversity and Inclusion data, or Proprietary Information. Leave the Site as you found it Do not copy, save, store, transfer, disclose, or otherwise retain any information you find on our site during your research, except to report your research to Glassdoor. Don't violate our Terms of Service or the law All access to our Site must otherwise be in accordance with our Terms of Service and all applicable laws In the event you access PII or other sensitive data, note that you are required to follow all laws and regulations applicable to the access and processing of such personally identifiable information and/or data, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, New York Privacy Act 2021, once they become effective, and the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), including the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses regarding the transfer of personal data to processors Don't impact our services You must avoid causing any interruption or degradation of our services. Researchers who are found to be using aggressive automated tools will be reported to Bugcrowd for non co-operation. No interacting with others Any form of interaction with others on or through our Site, including but not limited to other Glassdoor users, is strictly prohibited. Do not make any attempts to phish users or employees. Cooperate with Glassdoor You will be expected to cooperate with us if we request your assistance in connection with your research. Ratings/Rewards For the initial prioritization/rating of findings, this engagement will use the Bugcrowd Vulnerability Rating Taxonomy . However, it is important to note that in some cases a vulnerability priority will be modified due to its likelihood or impact. In any instance where an issue is downgraded, a full, detailed explanation will be provided to the researcher - along with the opportunity to appeal, and make a case for a higher priority.

Targets

Testing is only authorized on the targets listed as in scope. Any domain/property of Glassdoor not listed in the targets section is out of scope. This includes any/all subdomains not listed above. If you happen to identify a security vulnerability on a target that is not in scope, but it demonstrably belongs to Glassdoor, you can report it to to this engagement. However, be aware that it is ineligible for rewards or points-based compensation. Participation Eligibility Current employees or contractors of Glassdoor are not eligible to participate in the program. Former employees and contractors are eligible to participate in the program only, if: They have left Glassdoor more than 1 year prior to submission, and They are not making use of, or referring to, any non-public Glassdoor information obtained when they were an employee or contractor Engagement Guidelines Please do not perform any testing on live bowls or real company pages. Do not submit job applications, opt into job sourcing, or submit surveys, ratings, or reviews against real employers. All testing must happen in our approved Bugcrowd bowl (or private test bowls you create) or the Acme / Winkler Web Design company pages. Failure to comply may result in disqualification from our program Do not execute testing in any manner that would alter the behavior of our AI-powered features for our users or abuse AI-powered feature rate limits. Potential post-exploitation scenarios: If you believe you've identified a vulnerability that may lead to post-exploitation activity including modification or destruction of data please stop testing and submit your finding. We will work with you to evaluate the vulnerability and award you accordingly for the final impact and severity You are testing on production. Behavior that compromises the stability and integrity of the target(s) is out of scope For example, do not target other users' data (use one of your other sets of credentials), delete/remove/edit parts of the site, engage any sort of DoS attack, and/or compromise any target's ability to function for other users. If you believe that you have found a vulnerability of this nature, please stop further testing and report it PII Data in our platform refers to data that readily identifies an individual on the face of the data (e.g. a name, email address, phone number, national ID number, etc.) If the data exposed includes this type of data, all the data exposed with it is also considered PII. However, if facially identifiable data is not present in the exposure (i.e. it is not possible for a third-party to identify who the data belongs to) then the exposed data does not constitute PII as exposed (even if it would constitute PII within Glassdoor’s systems because it is normally connected to facially identifiable data) Localization: Glassdoor is an international company with many different subdomains for different countries, running the same applications in different languages. Localized versions can share the same codebase and therefore, a vulnerability found on many may only be eligible to be rewarded once Third party applications: For third party applications, such as Wordpress or Salesforce, will only be eligible for reward if there is a reasonable action Glassdoor can take to mitigate issues identified. A good example of something we wouldn't payout for is the output of WPScan showing recently out of date plugins, since regular patching is part of our WP management. An example of something we would payout for is a POC showing unintended behavior that isn't in a vendor patch, which is in our ability to fix Disclosing results: This bounty requires explicit permission to disclose the results of a submission Report Guidelines Reports must contain a clear explanation of the issue and the security impact along with detailed steps to reproduce it. If the issue cannot be reliably reproduced based on your report, it may be considered ineligible for a reward Please include a video PoC for exploits that are more complicated in nature Do not submit more than one vulnerability per report. In cases where demonstrating impact requires chaining multiple vulnerabilities together, those can be included in the same report as long as the linkage is clearly explained We do not accept reports that contain low-effort or AI-generated content. Submissions must demonstrate original analysis, clear understanding of the issue, and actionable detail. Reports lacking meaningful human input will be rejected Access All applications within scope are publicly accessible Credentials To register on Glassdoor or Fishbowl, please sign up for an account using your @bugcrowdninja.com email address.
