Description

Our Online Enrollment for Students Application allows students to apply for educational programs at the university or university colleges. Each year, approximately 40,000 applicants enter their personal information and educational preferences through this platform. As with all of our systems, we strive to maintain a secure and seamless experience. We invite researchers to challenge the security of our Online Enrollment for Students Program by identifying and reporting any vulnerabilities they may find. Your contributions help us protect the sensitive information of our applicants and ensure the integrity of the enrollment process.

Types of users

  • Only logged in users can access the Enrollment application. The login is provided by the Identity & Access Management system of KU Leuven.

Guidelines

  • Write your report in Dutch or English.
  • Describe the problem in sufficient detail and include the necessary evidence, such as IP addresses, log entries, screenshots, etc.
  • Provide detailed but to-the-point reproduction steps
  • Include a clear attack scenario; a step by step guide in the PoC is highly appreciated
  • Remember: quality over quantity
  • Only notify the ICTS department of KU Leuven of your findings, and only via this procedure. Do not publish details about the security issue through other channels. Making the problem known through other channels or the media, even before or after notifying the KU Leuven via this procedure and even when not all details are provided, will be considered irresponsible behaviour and can still lead to the filing of criminal charges.
  • Do not exploit the identified leak: only collect the information necessary to demonstrate its existence.
    Handle any found data in a responsible manner: if you can demonstrate that there is a security problem with a small portion, do not go any further
    Please do NOT discuss bugs before they are fixed

Our promise

  • We will response to your report as soon as possible, if you have provided contact information.
  • If we require additional information, we may choose to contact you, if possible.
  • We will do everything possible to solve any shortcomings as quickly as possible, and we will keep you posted.

In scope

The link above is for logging in or creating an account. Please note that the registration and login processes are considered out of scope for vulnerability testing. Once logged in, you can proceed to the actual enrollment application, which is in scope.

We are particularly focused on, but not limited to, identifying vulnerabilities such as:

  • Horizontal or vertical privilege escalation
  • Exploits that enable information theft
  • Exploits that allow data modification

Feedback
Would you like to help us improve our program or have some feedback to share, please send your anonymous feedback here:

Severity assessment

It will be the responsibility of intigriti to pay ethical hackers in a timely and legal way. Payouts will only take place after agreement with KU Leuven on the criticality of the impact and only if the submission was the first of its kind and agreed to be valid.

Exceptional

  • Remote code execution
  • Access to the underlying infrastructure

Critical

  • Acquire sensitive data of our users
  • Full database access
  • Vertical privilege escalation
  • Access to all user data or access to a targeted user
  • Data loss

High

  • Access to data of random users
  • Stored cross-site scripting
  • Impersonation of other user (1 user per time)

Medium

  • Reflected cross-site scripting with low or no user interaction
  • Stored cross-site scripting that requires a lot of user interaction
FAQ

How should we create the accounts?

In order to enroll users must first create an account to enter the application here: https://associatie.kuleuven.be/inschrijvingen/oli_login_50000050

When creating an account, you have to provide first name and last name. First name must be "intigriti" and last name must be "Test". Mailaddress must be your intigriti-mailaddress.

How long does it take to fix a vulnerability?

Our goal is to implement a fix as soon as possible. Depending on the criticality and the affected system it can take up to multiple months to implement a fix.

All aboard!
Please log in or sign up on the platform

For obvious reasons we can only allow submissions or applications for our program with a valid Intigriti account.

It will only take 2 minutes to create a new one or even less to log in with an existing account, so don't hesitate and let's get started. We would be thrilled to have you as part of our community.
