Summary

Congratulations are in order as Bugcrowd recognizes its top performers from October 2017, with todayisnew taking first place and noob and a private user rounding out the top three. These researchers earned significant bonuses for their outstanding work, which includes identifying high-severity bugs that pose critical security risks such as remote code execution or elevation of privilege. To excel in this field, one must be able to identify and submit high-quality bug reports, with those who do so earning substantial rewards and potentially even invitations to private bounty programs. Bugcrowd is grateful for the hard work of its researchers and looks forward to announcing the November Hall of Fame winners.
