Rules
What the policy asks of you, and the bug types it won't reward, quoted from TuxCare, Inc.'s policy. "We" in these lines means the program, not this site.
While testing
-
Hold disclosure until TuxCare has published its advisory and notified you that the embargo has lifted, or until 90 days have elapsed from your initial report — whichever comes first.
-
Coordinate on timing if you plan to publish independent research, so we can align the advisory publication date.
-
Minimize impact during your research: avoid destroying data, do not disrupt production systems beyond what is needed to confirm the vulnerability, and do not access data belonging to other users.
-
Use exploits only to confirm the vulnerability — do not leverage access for any other purpose.
