Security and Vulnerability Disclosure Policy
If you believe you have found a security issue that meets our definition of a vulnerability, please submit the report to dpo@pulso-group.com using the reporting guidelines.
Definition of a vulnerability
We consider a security vulnerability to be a weakness in one of our websites or infrastructure that could allow an attacker to impact the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of the website or infrastructure.
We do not consider the following types of findings to be security vulnerabilities:
- Descriptive error messages.
- Fingerprinting / banner disclosure.
- Clickjacking and issues only exploitable through clickjacking.
- Low impact Cross-Site Request Forgery (e.g. logout CSRF).
- Content spoofing.
- Presence of application or web browser autocomplete or save password functionality.
- Lack of Secure / HTTPOnly flags on non-sensitive cookies.
- Weak captcha or captcha bypass.
- Login or Forgot Password page brute force and account lockout not enforced.
- Username / email enumeration.
- Missing HTTP security headers without a proof of concept demonstrating the vulnerability (e.g. Strict-Transport-Security, X-Frame-Options, X-XSS-Protection, X-Content-Type-Options, Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Security-Policy, X-WebKit-CSP, Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only, Cache-Control and Pragm)
- HTTP / DNS cache poisoning.
- DNS zone transfers.
- SSL / TLS Issues (e.g. BEAST, BREACH, Renegotiation attack, forward secrecy not being enabled, weak/insecure cipher suites)
- Self-XSS reports will not be accepted. Similarly, any XSS where local access is required (i.e. User-Agent Header injection) will not be accepted. The only exception will be if you can show a working off-path MiTM attack that will allow for the XSS to trigger.
- Vulnerabilities that are limited to unsupported browsers will not be accepted (i.e. "this exploit only works in IE6/IE7").
- Known vulnerabilities in used third-party software, libraries, or reports that an outdated third-party software or library (e.g. Plesk, jQuery, Apache, …) is used unless you can prove exploitability.
- Missing or incorrect SPF records of any kind.
- Missing or incorrect DMARC records of any kind.
- Source code disclosure vulnerabilities.
- Information disclosure of non-confidential information (e. g. issue id, project id, commit hashes).
- The ability to upload/download viruses or malicious files to the platform.
- Email bombing
- Request Flooding
- Lack of rate limiting
- CSV Injection
- UI and UX issues, including spelling mistakes.
Rules
- The use of automated scanners is strictly prohibited.
- Destructive or intrusive testing is strictly prohibited.
- You must ensure that customer data is not affected in any way as a result of your testing.
- If you believe to have found sensitive data (e.g. login credentials, API keys, ...) or a way to access sensitive data (i.e. through a vulnerability), please report it but do not attempt to successfully validate if it works.
- Reports need to be submitted in plain text. Associated pictures and videos are accepted as well as long as they're in standard formats. Non-plain text reports (e.g. PDF, Word, ...) are not accepted.
- Do not conduct non-technical attacks such as social engineering, phishing or unauthorized access.
- Do not conduct physical attacks on equipment, facilities or employees.
- Do not conduct denial of service attacks.
- Use non-destructive and non-intrusive payloads for proof of concepts.
Acceptable payloads
| Issue type | Acceptable payload |
| XSS |
A simple alert(1) should suffice. |
| SQL injection |
Non-destructive and non-intrusive payloads. |
| RCE |
A simple echo command should suffice. |
| Redirects |
Set the redirect URL to https://test.pulso-group.com |
| CSRF |
Non-destructive and non-intrusive payloads. |
| SSRF |
Use https://pulso-group.com/.well-known/security.txt |
