Rules

What the policy asks of you, and the bug types it won't reward, quoted from Shell's policy. "We" in these lines means the program, not this site.

While testing

  • report the vulnerability to us in the manner set out above;
  • report the vulnerability as soon as you can to prevent that threat actors exploit the vulnerability before we have a chance to fix it;
  • report the vulnerability with us while keeping the information confidential (jn particular if it concerns personal data);
  • do not disclose the vulnerability to others;
  • do not use social engineering to gain access to our IT infrastructure or services;
  • do not install your own backdoor in our systems to disclose the vulnerability as this may result in unnecessary damage and security risks;
  • do not exploit a vulnerability further than necessary to confirm the vulnerability finding;
  • do not copy, modify, or remove data from system (an alternative is to create a directory listing of the system);
  • do not modify the system;
  • do not use Denial of Service attacks or brute force access technology;

Not accepted
