Workpay Vulnerability Disclosure Policy
Workpay is committed to maintaining the security and privacy of our systems, applications, and user data. We welcome and appreciate the security research community's efforts in helping us identify potential vulnerabilities in our products and services.
Bug Bounty Hall of Fame
Date	Reporter	Severity	Classification	Status
2026-06-27	Himanshu Chaudhary (Email)	High	Information disclosure leading to reading of sensitive information	✓ Fixed
2026-02-02	Muhammad Hammad (LinkedIn)	Medium	Missing security header, leading to iframe injection	✓ Fixed
Overview & Purpose
This Responsible Disclosure Policy outlines the process for reporting security vulnerabilities and our commitment to working with security researchers in a responsible manner.
The Workpay Vulnerability Disclosure Policy (VDP) establishes a clear, secure, and standardized way for external security researchers, customers, partners, and other stakeholders to report security vulnerabilities in our products and services.
This program is designed to support coordinated vulnerability disclosure practices and to help us continuously improve the security, privacy, and resilience of Workpay’s cloud platform, integrations, and mobile applications. By following this policy, you help us protect the employers and employees who rely on Workpay to manage payroll, HR, and financial services every day.
Good faith reporting
Please note, Workpay does not currently operate a “bug bounty” program, and we do not offer monetary compensation, reward for submissions of potential vulnerabilities. However, we have a public Hall-Of-Fame platform to honor the efforts of researchers who submit valid security reports.
Scope
This policy applies to security vulnerabilities discovered in:
Workpay web applications
Workpay mobile applications (iOS & Android)
Workpay-hosted payroll, HR, and financial services backends
In-scope Vulnerabilities include:
Remote Code Execution (RCE)
Authentication or authorization bypass
Privilege escalation across tenants or roles
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) with meaningful impact
SQL, NoSQL, or command injection
Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) with data exposure
Insecure direct object references (IDOR)
Exposed secrets, credentials, or sensitive configuration
Insecure deserialization or memory corruption
Significant misconfigurations leading to data exposure
Sensitive Information Disclosures
Out of Scope
The following are explicitly not covered by this policy:
DoS/DDoS attacks or stress testing our infrastructure
Missing security headers without demonstrated impact
Clickjacking and open redirects
Brute-force attacks against authentication endpoints
Vulnerabilities that require rooted devices or non-standard environments
Reports that only describe theoretical risks without a viable proof-of-concept
Third-party applications, websites, or services not owned or controlled by Workpay
Social engineering attacks against Workpay employees or customers
Physical attacks against Workpay facilities, equipment, or personnel
Vulnerabilities requiring physical access to user devices
Issues related to software or systems not maintained by Workpay
Spam, phishing, or other non-technical attacks
Publicly available files with no sensitive information
Missing best practices in SSL/TLS configuration
Reporting Guidelines

Affected Systems: Specific URLs, applications, or systems affected
Impact: The impact of the vulnerability
Severity Assessment: Your assessment of the vulnerability's severity and potential impact. Use CVSS v3.1 scoring here
Recommended Fix: Suggestions for remediation (if available)

Our Commitment to Researchers
Response Timeline
We are committed to acknowledging and responding to security vulnerability reports in a timely manner:
Initial Acknowledgment: Within 2 business days of receipt
Status Update: Within 5 business days with preliminary assessment
Regular Updates: Every 10 business days until resolution
Resolution Timeline: Varies based on complexity and severity (typically 30-60 days)
Hall of fame: Upon Report closure, we will add the researcher to our Hall of Fame.
Investigation Process
Upon receiving a vulnerability report, we will:
Acknowledge receipt and assign a unique tracking identifier

Reproduce and verify the reported vulnerability
Develop and test appropriate remediation measures
Deploy fixes in a coordinated manner
Provide final resolution status to the reporter.
Workpay will agree on a disclosure date with the researcher after a fix is validated.
Researcher Guidelines

Only access data necessary to demonstrate the vulnerability
Avoid downloading, copying, or retaining sensitive data
Respect user privacy and refrain from accessing personal information
Not perform testing on production systems when possible
Limit testing to the minimum necessary to demonstrate the vulnerability
Avoid automated scanning tools that may impact system performance
Prohibited Activities
