Introduction

We invite you to participate in our Bug Bounty Program on BugCrowd, where you can contribute to our security process ethically and to the mutual benefit of all parties. We currently run only a public program.

If you want to report a bug without participating in our Bug Bounty Programs, or if your bug is out of scope, read the next section on submitting other security reports.

CVE Numbering Authorities (CNA) membership

Since December 2019, we have been a part of the MITRE CVE program as a member of the CNA. As such, we are able to evaluate submitted vulnerabilities against a range of criteria and assign CVEs where appropriate.

Read our blog post on to learn more about our CNA membership.

Other security reports (Out-of-Scope reports)

If you find a bug or vulnerability that is out of scope for our bug bounty program, you can still submit your report directly to us.

We also do not accept bugs in versions of Opera that are no longer supported.

Our Android apps

Our Android applications are listed in the (GPSRP), and are eligible for bounty by Google. As such, submissions related to one or more of our Android applications may also meet GPSRP criteria.

Please report any vulnerabilities to us first through the public bug bounty program if the respective app is in scope, or using  if it’s not.

If you think the vulnerability is eligible for Google’s reward program, you can submit a report to Google once the vulnerability has been confirmed and fixed. Please see the rules listed on the GPSRP website for more information about Google’s reward program.

Please note that bounties from the GPSRP are at Google’s discretion, and are not handled by us.
