Democracy Live Vulnerability Disclosure

SUBMIT A VULN

* By submitting a vulnerability, you agree to the Terms of Use.

Overview

This Responsible Disclosure Program (the “Program”) page is for security researchers interested in reporting application security vulnerabilities. This is intended for application security vulnerabilities only.

Vulnerabilities submitted to the Program through the form provided will be reviewed by Synack, Inc. (“Synack”). Submissions will be reviewed to confirm they are within the Program scope and a valid security issue. If you submit a valid vulnerability, you will be notified after a fix has been issued, and you will have the opportunity to be added to the Acknowledgments page and to disclose the vulnerability. The submission review and validation process is managed exclusively by Synack through their platform and you must follow the Guidelines, Rules of Engagement, and Scope set forth below to participate. All submissions and queries regarding the Program should be submitted through the Submission Form.

Guidelines

In submitting a request, you agree to:

• Accept and adhere to the Terms of Use.
• Work directly with Synack on vulnerability submissions.
