AmlGroup (amlgroup.top) Bug Bounty: $5,000 Each Validated Critical — Full Scope, Kill Chain Required

AmlGroup at https://amlgroup.top/ operates as an exchange / mixer-style venue: deposit tagging, pool or delay queues, payout routing, ticketing and support surfaces, automation bots, REST or messaging hooks, operator consoles — full amlgroup.top-operated perimeter in-scope. Each critical with reproducible chain pays $5,000 USD. Mandatory kill chain + working exploit. No laundering, sanctions evasion, or harming unrelated users — defensive coordinated research only.

01 — Overview

Pool accounting & payout routing under stress

AmlGroup concentrates commingled deposits, anonymity-set bookkeeping, timed releases, fee sweeps, and privileged views — fertile ground for balance theft, attribution leaks, or double-spend in pool ledgers. Each critical earns $5,000.

In scope: amlgroup.top hosts, APIs, bots, signing services, staging shards.
Legal floor: financial crime, harassment — barred; bounty is for defensive security.

Minimum evidence bar — non-negotiable:
1️⃣ Kill chain from root cause → exploit steps → measurable loss or integrity break  2️⃣ Proof the attack succeeds (replayed APIs showing balance drift, withdraw replay, admin boundary cross). Narratives without replayable exploits stall below payout threshold.
02 — Why this matters

Why probe AmlGroup?

Flat $5K critical payouts

Validated critical exploits with reproducible payloads earn exactly $5,000 USD — no spreadsheet bingo.

Trading + custody blast radius

Order APIs, WS books, withdraw workers — bugs cash out as silent drift until someone scripts the replay.

No fake micro-scope list

If AmlGroup can patch it — pool math to payout workers — escalate until severity lands.

Responsible disclosure halo

Demonstrated chains earn coordinated publication credit after fixes ship.

03 — Reward

$5,000 per validated critical

There is exactly one bounty amount on this ledger: validated critical findings pay $5,000 USD each. Novel low-severity items may qualify for goodwill credit but not this stipend. Paid rows require attacker-readable kill chains and replayable exploitation artefacts (Burp exports, parallel withdraw harnesses, WS replay dumps, signing traces…).

Critical $5,000 USD ea.

Unauthorized withdrawals or balance inflation at scale; forging signed API/withdraw intents; universal read of other users’ positions or deposit history; break-glass access to signing or treasury policy; persisted RCE in trading or custody control plane; SSRF into HSM/KMS bridges AmlGroup exposes.

  • Cross-user ledger bleed, margin math desync, or duplicate settlement
  • Withdraw/deposit pipeline integrity break exploitable remotely
  • SSRF from AmlGroup workers to cloud signing metadata planes
Operational truth: If you can't yet prove the exploitation moves money state inside AmlGroup’s trust boundary, iterate on mirrors until logs objectively show success — triage shelves “maybe” theories.
04 — Scope inventory

Illustrative map (non-exhaustive)

Rows below do not cap surface. Anything AmlGroup hosts, signs, matches, settles, or withdraws through counts as bounty ground. “Not listed” ≠ “out-of-scope.”

Surface Class Critical payout
amlgroup.top, subdomains, web UI Web $5,000 / validated bug
Pool / mixer APIs · deposit credentials Backend $5,000 / validated bug
Payout orchestration · signing policy Custody $5,000 / validated bug
Admin / support rails Ops $5,000 / validated bug
05 — Scope policy

Everything AmlGroup operates — no exclusions list

Sandbox books or pool clusters, Grafana, bot hooks for risk alerts, partner APIs fronted by AmlGroup — all eligible when critical impact reproduces.

  • Vanity domains CNAME’d into AmlGroup edge — show DNS/traffic proof in your write-up.
  • Wallet connector SDKs or bookmarklets AmlGroup ships
  • Colocated market-making or liquidity pool containers they operate
  • Bridge, on-ramp, or pool callbacks verified with AmlGroup-issued secrets
Legal floor (not bounty shrink): laundering, indiscriminate draining of unrelated liquidity venues, harassment — always off-limits even if endpoints tempt you.
06 — Rules

Rules of engagement

  1. Prove exploitation success. Provide scripts, HARs, parallel request captures, or signing traces showing fund/state impact — not paper analysis alone.
  2. Number your hops. Session/API primitive → escalation → treasury or book integrity break.
  3. Minimize real-user blast radius. Prefer mirrors, low-value accounts, and reversible payloads when demonstrating theft-class bugs.
  4. Private coordination first. Use official intake on amlgroup.top before public threads.
  5. Duplicate fairness. First qualifying PoC wins; followers close acknowledged-only.
07 — Submit

How to submit a report

Use the security / vulnerability disclosure contact published on https://amlgroup.top/ (security@amlgroup.top is a common guess — verify on the live site before emailing). Template below.

Report Template
# Title
[Critical][Exploit-Proven] <tight title>

# Executive summary — trader/treasury impact in one paragraph

# Severity self-classification → must map to AmlGroup critical definitions above

## Attack chain narrative (numbered, no gaps)
1. Preconditions (session, API key tier, market symbol, account ID)
2. Entry primitive — HTTP/WS line + signature headers
3. Pivot(s) → privilege/order/withdraw escalation
4. Final hop → balance theft / forged payout / infra takeover equivalent

## Successful exploitation evidence
• Scripted replay showing ledger/withdraw impact
• Parallel request traces (race/double-spend)
• Custody or admin log lines proving attacker-forged intent accepted

## Reproduction package
Commands + fixtures + commit/patch SHAs

## Disclosure ack
Private channel only until AmlGroup clears publication
Gating reminder: Missing chain steps or lacking replayable exploitation bumps the ticket to rework — no payout until solved.
08 — Example

Withdraw race vignette · pair with parallel request logs

Illustrative race on debit + enqueue — worthless without captures on amlgroup.top.

Node · illustrative misuse
// BUGGY: non-atomic balance check + debit — parallel wins double payout
async function requestWithdraw(userId, amount) {
  const bal = await db.getBalance(userId);
  if (bal < amount) throw new Error('insufficient');
  await db.debit(userId, amount);
  await queue.enqueuePayout(userId, amount);
}
09 — FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is anything “out of scope” besides crime?

No discretionary product carve-outs — only legal/ethical bases. If AmlGroup routes traffic there, document the chain until triage rejects specifics.

Theory-only reports?

No payout. $5K demands reproducible success proof.

Staging fair game?

Yes when AmlGroup operates and labels it; mirror production auth & routing semantics.

Duplicates?

Fastest fully valid PoC wins treasury.

Lower severities?

Not under the $5K critical rubric — escalate impact or accept non-cash acknowledgement.

Critical chain + working exploit = $5,000

No narrow scope appendix — document the attack, prove it lands, file privately.
