Project Overview

Bluefin is a decentralized perpetuals trading protocol enabling users to trade perpetual contracts globally with leverage up to 20x. Designed for accessibility and flexibility, Bluefin provides a trustless platform for traders seeking high-leverage exposure within the decentralized finance ecosystem.

Rewards by Severity

Program Overview Bluefin is dedicated to maintaining a secure and resilient platform by encouraging the responsible disclosure of vulnerabilities through its Bug Bounty Program. This initiative invites ethical hackers and security researchers to contribute to the safety and integrity of Bluefin’s smart contracts, applications, and supporting infrastructure.

Reward Structure All reported vulnerabilities are assessed using a 4-tier severity model, with payouts determined based on both the criticality of the issue and the affected component. For critical smart contract vulnerabilities, rewards are capped at 10% of the economic damage, with consideration given to the amount of funds at risk, potential reputational damage, and other business impacts. High-severity vulnerabilities may be rewarded with up to 100% of the funds affected, based on the value calculated at the time of the report submission.

Submission Requirements Bug reports must include a Proof of Concept (PoC) along with clearly outlined steps to reproduce the issue. Reports that rely solely on narrative explanations or lack executable code will not be eligible for rewards.

Payouts Rewards are issued in USD and distributed directly by the Bluefin team.

In-Scope Vulnerabilities
Only the following impacts are accepted within this bug bounty program. All other impacts are not considered in-scope, even if they affect something in the assets in scope table.
Web Application
Critical
Remote code execution enabling attackers to compromise the entire system
Direct theft of user and project's assets(e.g. NFTs; tokens)
Unauthorized access allowing full control over user accounts or wallets
Access to sensitive internal data (private keys; database and server credentials)
Unauthorized alteration of NFT Metadata
Subdomain(with already-connected wallet) takeover or availability disruption of critical assets (e.g. NFT URI; RPC server)
Major
Sensitive user data disclosed for a large amount of users (p.e. physical address; email; phone number)
Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) without limitations
Access sensitive data from the database through SQL injection
Bypass of essential authentication mechanisms granting administrative privileges
Unauthorized access to functions that modify sensitive user or application data
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities leading to unauthorized sensitive data access or manipulation of internal systems
Public access to wallet information without connecting the wallet
Unauthorized access to non-critical user data
Security misconfigurations that could be exploited under certain conditions
Limited Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS)
Malicious redirection without interaction on domains with already-connected wallet
Out-Of-Scope Vulnerabilities
The following vulnerabilities are excluded from the rewards for this bug bounty program:
  • Vulnerabilities that have already been exploited
  • Centralization-related vulnerabilities related to: private keys, privileged addresses, governance, credentials, etc.

Program Rules
  • Please provide detailed reports with reproducible steps. If the report is not detailed enough to reproduce the issue - the issue will not be eligible for a reward.
  • Submit one vulnerability per report - unless you need to chain vulnerabilities to provide impact.
  • When duplicates occur we only award the first report that was received (provided that it can be fully reproduced).
  • Multiple vulnerabilities caused by one underlying issue will be awarded one bounty.
  • Make a good faith effort to avoid privacy violations - destruction of data - and interruption or degradation of our service. Only interact with accounts you own or with explicit permission of the account holder.
  • Do not attempt to conduct post-exploitation including modification or destruction of data - and interruption or degradation of services.
  • Do not attempt to perform brute-force attacks or denial-of-service attacks.
  • Do not attempt to target employees or customers including social engineering attacks - phishing attacks or physical attacks.
The following activities are prohibited by this bug bounty program:
  • Any testing with mainnet or public testnet contracts.
  • All testing should be done on private testnets.
  • Automated testing of services that generate significant amounts of traffic.
  • Public disclosure of an unpatched vulnerability in an embargoed bounty.
  • Social engineering (e.g. phishing, vishing, smishing) of any kind.
