    Hi,

    Thank you for reaching out and for your interest in helping improve the security of F-Secure products.

    Please note that vulnerability reports submitted to our Vulnerability Reward Program are handled by a dedicated security team. As community moderators, we do not have access to or visibility into the status of reports submitted through that program.

    We kindly ask you to refer to the official Vulnerability Reward Program page and follow the instructions provided there for submitting or following up on a report:
    https://www.f-secure.com/en/vulnerability-reward-program

    If your report was submitted previously and you have not yet received a response, we recommend submitting a follow-up through the official channel listed on the page so the security team can review your request directly.

    Thank you for helping us keep our services secure.

    Chameni.

    Hello,

    I am only an F-Secure user.

    Sorry for my comment. Just to better understand the situation (like, what the problem might be).

    Did you use "security@f-secure.com" address? Did you encrypt the email using PGP key as their suggested (with providing your public key)?

    The page dedicated to the Vulnerability Reward Program has not been updated, saying "the current vulnerability reward program will end June 30, 2025." (as well as .well-known's security.txt). So, did you receive any response from "security@f-secure.com" or all communication was within Live Chat and 'further' tickets there?

    Screenshot mentions the point that they call it "Bug Bounty Program" (managed internally on a best-effort basis) there. Perhaps there was a misunderstanding regarding which channel to use for communication and from whom to expect a response? Did the agent tell you routine clearly at that time?

    // I don't know if you can 'ping' @gancal on this subject.

    Hi @Hunter0923,

    Thank you for your interest in our bug bounty program. At the moment, program is currently on hold, we really appreciate your effort in reporting issues and helping us keep our products secure. Your submission will still be reviewed by the team, and they’ll get back to you once possible.

    Best regards.

    Hi @Hunter0923,

    Thank you for your patience. It appears that your previous email sent to security@f -secure.com may have been placed in quarantine, which is why you did not receive a response.

    If you are still willing to proceed, we kindly ask you to resubmit your report by sending the email, details of the issue, and any attachments to security@f -secure.com again. To help prevent the message from being quarantined, please place the attachments in a password-protected archive when sending them.

    Thank you again for taking the time to report this and help improve our security.

    Thanks for the tag @Ukko ! I'm still here 😁

    @Hunter0923 , as noted by @Chameni earlier, your report was quarantined by our mail server as it probably was detected as containing suspicious attachment therefore it never landed in security@f-secure.com inbox.

    To support you better, can you resubmit your report to the same email address, but this time zip up the attachment in a password-protected zip?

    Regarding the eligibility of the reward, note that the report has to be in scope as listed in the program page. At the time of the program when it was active last year, the scope of product eligible for reward is F-Secure Total in Windows, Mac, Android and iOS. Issues related to backend services and public web pages were not in scope of the program hence not eligible for reward. We would however still fix any valid security issue and list contributors to our Hall of Fame page upon fix release.

    Hope this answers your question and concerns.
