Vulnerability disclosure program
This is the official vulnerability disclosure program for Maintenance. If you're a security researcher and believe that you have found a security vulnerability within our software, please send us details through the "report" form on this page. Please include as detailed information as possible, so we could verify the issue and get back to you as soon as possible with either additional questions or with a potential fix. All valid security vulnerabilities will receive a CVE and may also earn you rewards from Patchstack Alliance bug bounty program.

Eligibility and responsibility
We would like to thank everyone who submits valid reports that help us improve the security of Maintenance. However, only those that meet the following eligibility requirements may receive a monetary reward for vulnerabilities found in the Maintenance source code.
You must be the first reporter of a vulnerability.
The vulnerability must be a qualifying vulnerability (see below).
Any vulnerability found must be reported no later than 24 hours after discovery and exclusively through patchstack.com.
You must avoid tests that could cause degradation or interruption of our service (refrain from using automated tools, and limit your requests per second). If you over do it, your IP address might be throttled or even (temporarily) blocked to protect our infrastructure. See how.
Reports on vulnerabilities are examined by our security analysts - our analysis is always based on worst case exploitation & the business criticality of the vulnerability, as is the reward we pay.
