Rewards by Severity

Program Overview The IceCreamSwap Bug Bounty Program invites security researchers and ethical hackers to identify and report vulnerabilities within the IceCreamSwap ecosystem. This initiative strengthens the platform’s reliability, protects user funds, and ensures the secure operation of its smart contract infrastructure.

Reward Structure All valid reports are evaluated using a 4-level severity model, with payouts based on the severity and scope of the issue. For critical smart contract vulnerabilities, rewards are capped at 10% of the economic damage, factoring in the amount of funds at risk as well as potential PR and brand implications, as determined by the IceCreamSwap team. High-severity vulnerabilities are eligible for rewards up to 25% of the funds affected, calculated at the time the report is submitted.

Submission Requirements Submissions must include a working proof of concept (PoC) and detailed reproduction steps. Reports that do not contain code or fail to demonstrate a tangible impact on an in-scope asset will be disqualified.

Payouts All rewards are denominated and paid in ICE, and are distributed directly by the IceCreamSwap team following successful validation and completion of KYC.

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.
Smart Contract
Critical

Unauthorized mint/burn/transfer of assets
Permanent denial of services
Double spending
Protocol insolvency
Major
Access control is bypassed - including privilege escalation
Theft or permanent freezing of unclaimed yield
Medium
Unexpected logic executions (doesn’t lose value)
Griefing (e.g. no profit motive for an attacker but damage to the users or the protocol)
Low
Important gas optimizations
Smart contract functionality significantly differs from how it is described in its official repo
Smart contract fails to deliver promised returns - but doesn’t lose value
Application/Web
Critical
Theft of users funds
Major
Remote code execution and code injection
SQL injection
Obtaining high-impact sensitive information from the internal system
XXE/XML injection vulnerability with high-security impact
Authentication and authorization bypass with high impact
Medium
Account takeover
Stored XSS on general pages
CSRF involving core business etc
IDOR with medium security impact/Horizontal and Vertical Privilege Escalation

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:
  • 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.
FAQs
