Abstract

A large part of the internet relies on open source software, hence securing the open source ecosystem becomes more important than ever. The talk will offer insights into HackerOne programs which include code bases of open source software in scope. We will provide brief insights about how to approach open source targets on HackerOne. Lastly, we will provide an introduction to IBB, cover open source projects which are part of IBB, the reporting process to get rewarded via IBB, and a brief overview of some recent interesting bugs paid through IBB.
