Microsoft is excited to announce the addition of Exchange on-premises, SharePoint on-premises, and Skype for Business on-premises to the Applications and On-Premises Servers Bounty Program.
Through this expanded program, we encourage researchers to discover and report high-impact security vulnerabilities to help protect customers. We offer awards up to $26,000 USD for eligible submissions. The following products are now eligible for bounty awards:
That’s not all! The bounty also includes high-impact scenarios offering the highest awards to research in areas with the highest potential impact to customer security.
Security Impact | Severity Multiplier |
---|---|
EXCHANGE ONLY: Server-Side Request Forgery allows an attacker to make server-side HTTP requests to arbitrary URLs. | 20% |
SHAREPOINT ONLY: Authenticated Server-Side Request Forgery allows an attacker to make authenticated server-side HTTP requests to arbitrary URL | 20% |
Insecure deserialization of user-controllable data, leading to remote code execution on server | 30% |
Arbitrary file write of user-controlled data on user-controlled location on the server. | 20% |
Authentication bypass allows for unauthenticated exploitation which results in mass exploitation of vulnerabilities | 20% |
Vulnerabilities within Exchange Emergency Mitigation Service (EEMS) | 15% |
