Samsung Mobile bug bounty: Samsung has launched a bug bounty program, offering up to $200,000 to anyone who discovers a critical software vulnerability that would allow one of its devices to be compromised.
The findings identified by the researchers should affect devices, services, or applications developed and signed by Samsung or by third-party companies specifically designed for Samsung.
All devices should be fully up to date and affected services should be active.
Samsung Mobile bug bounty: The list of devices participating in the vulnerability bounty contest includes the latest models, such as the S8, S7, and Note 8, as well as older models released in 2016, such as the J3 and A5. The Samsung Galaxy S6 is also included in the program.
“We take security and privacy issues very seriously. As a token of appreciation for helping Samsung Mobile improve the security of our products and minimize the risk to our end consumers, we offer a reward program for appropriate security vulnerability reports,” Samsung says.
“Through this program, we hope to build and maintain valuable relationships with researchers who coordinate the disclosure of security issues with Samsung Mobile.”.
Samsung also said it will not pay researchers for flaws that lead to app crashes without an exploit.
Of course, all vulnerabilities you discover should not be disclosed to the public, but reported privately to Samsung, which will then review your findings and decide whether to issue a payment or not.
