Project Overview

Mutuum (MUTM) is a decentralized, non-custodial liquidity protocol that empowers users to participate as lenders, borrowers, or liquidators. Lenders can deposit crypto assets into Mutuum’s liquidity pools to earn passive income, while borrowers access overcollateralized loans by securing sufficient collateral. Designed for transparency and security, Mutuum eliminates intermediaries, enabling trustless and efficient lending markets within the DeFi ecosystem.

Rewards by Severity

Program Overview The Mutuum Finance Bug Bounty Program invites ethical hackers and security researchers to identify and report vulnerabilities across our smart contracts, frontend interfaces, and API infrastructure. This program is a critical part of our commitment to proactive security and ensuring a reliable and secure experience for our users.

Reward Structure Bounties are awarded according to a 4-tier severity model, adjusted by the criticality of the discovered issue and the type of system impacted. For critical vulnerabilities in smart contracts, rewards are capped at 10% of the economic damage, primarily considering the funds at risk, along with PR and reputational factors. High-severity issues may be rewarded with up to 100% of the funds affected, based on the impact assessment at the time the report is submitted.

Submission Requirements To be eligible for a reward, all bug submissions must include a working Proof of Concept (PoC) and clear reproduction steps that demonstrate the vulnerability’s impact on assets in scope. Submissions lacking code or technical demonstration will not be considered.

Payouts All validated bug reports will be paid in USDT following successful review and compliance with program terms.

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 and tokens)
Unauthorized access allowing full control over user accounts or wallets
Access to sensitive internal data (private keys and 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 and RPC server)
Major
Sensitive user data disclosed for a large amount of users (p.e. physical address and email and 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
Medium
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
Low
Minor information disclosure of sensitive data with low security risk
Use of deprecated or outdated security practices that can cause security risk
Validation errors that lead to low-security risk
HTML and text injection in sensitive features with a low security risk
Other vulnerabilities with low-security impact
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.
Web Application
Best practice recommendations
Susceptibility to brute force attacks aimed at retrieving passwords or tokens
Non-Sensitive Data Disclosure
Attacks requiring physical access to a user's device
Exposure of non-sensitive API keys
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) on unauthenticated forms or forms with no sensitive actions(e.g. Login/Logout CSRF)
Reports exploiting the behavior of - or vulnerabilities in - outdated browsers
Unconfirmed reports from automated vulnerability scanners
Issues that require unlikely user interaction
Previously known vulnerable libraries without a working Proof of Concept
Missing best practices in SSL/TLS configuration
Any activity that could lead to the disruption of our service (DoS)
Email Spoofing - SPF/DMARC Records Misconfiguration
Spam / Flooding
Tab nabbing
Social engineering
Presence of autocomplete attribute on web forms
CORS misconfiguration with no security impact
Self-XSS with no security impact
CSV/formula injection
Missing HTTP security headers or cookie flags without demonstrated impact
Clickjacking with no security impact
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.
FAQs
How do I search for active bounties?
A: Active bounties can be viewed here [CertiK URL], and by filtering for bounties on the Security Leaderboard. Projects will post bounties along with the assets in the scope of the bounties with a corresponding bounty reward.
How do I submit a bounty?
To submit a bug report, first register an account with us https://www.certik.com/auth/signup. Once your account is created, you can log in and select “Submit Bug” for the specific bounties you're interested in. You will be prompted to fill out a webform; follow the instructions and upon successful submission, you will receive an email confirmation with a reference ID.
Who do I contact if I'm having trouble with my bug report submission?
You can reach out to bugbounty@certik.com for updates and assistance with your bug bounty submission.
I submitted my bug report. What now?
Once your bug report is submitted, CertiK will evaluate the report and contact the respective project. Depending on the criteria stated within a bug bounty, a KYC may be required. With valid bug reports, you will be contacted to begin the process of evaluating the bug with the project.
How is KYC handled?
CertiK has a team of investigative professionals that will handle any needed KYC services for bug bounty submissions requiring KYC.
Why was my bug report submission rejected?
A description of dismissal will be available for any bug bounty that is rejected.
The project is being slow responding to my bug report. What are their required response times / SLAs?
There can be multiple bug bounty submissions therefore there might be some delay in process times.
