Hey awesome hackers!

The Yahoo Bug Bounty team wants to let you know how much we appreciate you participating in this private version of our Bug Bounty program! To show that appreciation, for all medium or higher severity reports you will receive a 25% bonus on top of the regular bounty! This bonus comes from a bounty pool of 50K so resources are limited, and it only lasts through the private program. First reported, first served!

As this is a private program, we also ask that you please avoid sharing the program or your participation on social media and other public platforms for now. Maintaining the element of surprise is crucial until we are ready to launch this program publicly on Intigriti!

If you have any questions or need assistance, don't hesitate to contact our Bug Bounty Program team through Intigriti's “Ask scope question” feature. We're here to help!

Once again, thanks a million for being part of our Bug Bounty Program. We're thrilled to have you on board and can't wait to see what incredible vulnerabilities you uncover!

Cheers,
The Yahoo Bug Bounty team
