triage-validation

To validate bug bounty findings before reporting, you can use a 7-Question Gate process and 4 pre-submission checks to ensure findings have real-world impact, avoid deduplication, and meet report quality criteria. This reduces N/A ratios.

A comprehensive Never Submit List identifies specific security findings that should never be submitted. By checking your findings against this list before reporting, you ensure submissions are actionable and meet necessary criteria.

Conditionally valid security findings require a chain of additional findings to be considered valid. The validation process provides specific guidance on when a bug chain is required to prove the real-world impact of your submission.

To determine bug severity using CVSS 3.1 scoring, you can reference the provided CVSS 3.1 Quick Reference. This helps ensure accurate severity ratings during the bug validation and triage process before submission.

Yes, this triage validation applies to security researchers and bug bounty hunters. It validates the validity of bug submissions by ensuring they meet specific criteria and rules through careful analysis of findings.

The best pre-submission checks for security testing reports include 4 pre-submission gates that verify real-world impact, check for deduplication, and ensure report quality. These gates apply after a 7-Question validation process.
