Reporting a Vulnerability

To report a vulnerability, please email [email protected] and provide all the necessary details to reproduce it, such as:

  • Release version
  • Operating System
  • Consensus / Execution client combination and version
  • Network (Mainnet or other testnet)

Please include the steps to reproduce it using as much detail as possible with the corresponding logs from mev-boost and/or logs from the consensus/execution client.

Once we have received your bug report, we will try to reproduce it and provide a more detailed response. When the reported bug has been successfully reproduced, the team will work on a fix.

Bug Bounty Program

To incentive bug reports, there is a bug bounty program. You can receive a bounty (up to $25k USD) depending on the bug's severity. Severity is based on impact and likelihood. If a bug is high impact but low likelihood, it will have a lower severity than a bug with a high impact and high likelihood.

Severity Maximum Example
Low $1,000 USD A bug that causes mev-boost to skip a bid.
Medium $5,000 USD From a builder message, can cause mev-boost to go offline.
High $12,500 USD From a builder message, can cause a connected validator to go offline.
Critical $25,000 USD From a builder message, can remotely access arbitrary files on host.

Scope

Bugs that affect the security of the Ethereum protocol in the mev-boost and mev-boost-relay repositories are in scope. Bugs in third-party dependencies are not in scope unless they result in a bug in mev-boost with demonstrable security impact.
