    Open-source vulnerability disclosure and bug bounty program database

    • Hi, I want to make some experience with web pentesting and I wanted to take some small bug bounty programs from disclose.io/programs/ . But to be honest I am scared that maybe I will do something wrong and I will face legal consequences 😱 . I am scared that by making the report they will see that I exploited the bug too much and put them in danger or something like that. I heard about white hat hackers reporting vulnerabilities and facing legal action but they discovered them without a bug bounty program like in this case https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/ethical-hacker-exposes-magyar-telekom-vulnerabilities-faces-8-years-in-jail/ What is your opinion about this ?
