Petcube Vulnerability Disclosure Policy (VDP)

1. Introduction

Petcube, Inc. is committed to maintaining a secure environment for our users, systems, and data. We believe responsible vulnerability disclosure plays a critical role in improving security for everyone. This Vulnerability Disclosure Policy (VDP) outlines the process for researchers to safely report vulnerabilities in our products and services.

2. Scope

This VDP applies to all of Petcube's mobile applications, web applications, APIs, and cloud platforms.

Please note: Vulnerabilities in third-party software or services used by Petcube are not covered under this policy. We encourage you to report such vulnerabilities directly to the respective vendor.

3. Reporting Process

We encourage users and security researchers to report discovered vulnerabilities using any of the following methods:

Email: support@petcube.com

Please include the following information in your report:

• • Detailed description of the vulnerability: Explain the nature of the vulnerability, its potential impact, and the steps to reproduce it.
• • Technical details: Provide technical details such as code snippets, proof-of-concept (PoC) code, or screenshots (if applicable) to validate the vulnerability.
• • Contact information: Include a valid email address or other contact information so we can reach you.

We appreciate your cooperation with the following guidelines:

• • Refrain from public disclosure of the vulnerability before it is coordinated with and acknowledged by Petcube.
• • Do not engage in any activities that may disrupt Petcube's systems or cause harm to users (e.g., denial-of-service attacks).
• • Maintain the confidentiality of any information not publicly disclosed by Petcube.

4. Response Timeline

• • In accordance with the Vulnerability Disclosure Policy, we commit to acknowledge your reported vulnerability within 24 hours (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm EST) upon receipt of the initial submission.
• • Once the reported security issue is verified based on its impact, severity, and the complexity of the potential concern, we will assign a Vulnerability Classification level and actions will be determined at that time. We may seek your ongoing assistance in addressing the vulnerability concern during the review and resolution period, up to 90 days, unless otherwise prohibited.
• • Throughout this process, we will provide updates on progress bi-weekly until a resolution is in place. We kindly request that you treat the vulnerability as confidential and refrain from engaging in activities such as unauthorized denial of service attacks, load testing, social engineering, or other undesirable actions until a solution has been implemented.
  

5. Resolution Process

• • Petcube will work diligently to develop a patch, workaround, or other solution to address the reported vulnerability.
• • Affected users and stakeholders will be informed about the vulnerability, mitigation steps, and potential risks.
• • After thorough testing and verification, the mitigation will be made available to users with clear instructions on implementation.
• • Public disclosure of the vulnerability details may be considered after proper remediation and user notification.

6. Guidelines for Researchers

We appreciate responsible security researchers who help us improve the security of our products and services. Please act ethically and legally throughout the reporting process.

Thank you for your cooperation!
