GitHub's Bug Bounty Program, launched in 2014, plays a crucial role in enhancing the security of its products by engaging external security researchers, and it has been consistently recognized as a top program by the research community. During Cybersecurity Awareness Month, GitHub highlights the contributions of talented researchers like @yvvdwf, who participates in the program as a hobby, finding bugs while working as a software engineer. The researcher discovered a passion for security after encountering a Git error and was inspired by the significant bounties awarded. With a background in web applications, their initial focus was on cross-site scripting (XSS), later expanding to server-side request forgery (SSRF) due to its intriguing complexity. @yvvdwf shares insights on adapting to the mindset of an "abnormal user" to uncover vulnerabilities and stresses the importance of foundational knowledge for aspiring bug hunters. The GitHub Bug Bounty Program continues to invite collaboration through platforms like HackerOne, encouraging more researchers to contribute to the security of GitHub's ecosystem.
