Bug Bounty Program - BlaBlaCar

About the company

BlaBlaCar is the world's leading community-based travel network enabling over 100 million active members per year to share a ride across 21 countries.

Our technology fills empty seats on the road, connecting members looking to carpool or to travel by bus, making travel more affordable, sociable, and convenient.

Reporting & Disclosure Policy

BlaBlaCar believes that working with skilled security researchers across the globe is crucial in identifying weaknesses in any technology. If you believe you've found a security issue in our products or services, we encourage you to notify us. We welcome working with you to resolve the issue promptly.

  • Let us know as soon as possible upon discovery of a potential security issue, and we'll make every effort to quickly resolve the issue.
  • If you find the same vulnerability several times, please create only one report and eventually use comments. You'll be rewarded accordingly to your findings.
  • No vulnerability disclosure, full, partial or otherwise, is allowed without explicit approval.
  • Denial of service (DoS) attacks on {{BU_NAME}} applications, servers, networks or infrastructure are strictly forbidden.
  • Avoid tests that could cause degradation or interruption of our services.
  • Do not use automated scanners or tools that generate large amount of network traffic
  • Do not leak, copy, manipulate, or destroy any user data or files in any of our applications/servers.

Reward Eligibility

We are happy to thank everyone who submits valid reports which help us improve the security of BlaBlaCar, however only those that meet the following eligibility requirements may receive a monetary reward:

  • You must be the first reporter of a vulnerability.
  • The vulnerability must be a qualifying vulnerability
  • The report must contain the following elements:
    • Clear textual description of the vulnerability, how it can be exploited, the security impact it has on the application, its users and BlaBlaCar, and remediation advice on fixing the vulnerability
    • Proof of exploitation: screenshots demonstrating the exploit was performed, and showing the final impact
    • Provide complete steps with the necessary information to reproduce the exploit, including (if necessary) code snippets, payloads, commands etc
  • You must not break any of the testing policy rules listed above
  • You must not be a former or current employee of BlaBlaCar or one of its contractors.

Reward amounts are based on:

  • Reward grid of the report's scope
  • CVSS scoring and actual business impact of the vulnerability upon performing risk analysis

Scopes of the program

In general BlaBlaCar and BlaBlaCar Daily websites and apps are part of this bug bounty. Please refer to the detailed list of scope if you have a doubt.

However, though listed in the out-of-scope list, if you really feel that a bug will leave an impact on our platform, please come up with a convincing and working POC. If that convinces us to change our code, we will reward you with a bounty.

Out of scopes

  • Any website that is not listed explicitly in the scope.
  • However, though listed in the out-of-scope list, if you really feel that a bug will leave an impact on our platform, please come up with a convincing and working POC. If that convinces us to change our code, we will reward you with a bounty.
  • Finally, fraud related reports are out-of-scope if they do not exploit a security vulnerability. Therefore, fraud activity enabled by bug or incomplete business rules enforcement are out-of-scope. However, a fraud activity enabled by a CSRF exploit for example is valid.

Vulnerability types

Qualifying vulnerabilities

  • SQL Injection (SQLi)
  • Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
  • Remote Code Execution (RCE)
  • Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR)

  • Authentication bypass & broken authentication
  • Business Logic Errors vulnerability with real security impact
  • Local files access and manipulation (LFI, RFI, XXE, SSRF, XSPA)
  • Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) with real security impact
  • Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF) with real security impact
  • Open Redirect
  • Exposed secrets, credentials or sensitive information on an asset under our control and affecting at least one of our scopes
