Chinese online casino — admin access priority
ITL996 is a Chinese real-money online casino operating at https://www.itl996.com. The platform offers slot games, live dealer tables, sportsbook betting, lottery-style games, and virtual gaming — all backed by payment rails handling deposits, withdrawals, and internal wallet transfers.
This bounty program is designed around one primary target: admin access. The platform's administration consoles — user management, game configuration, payout controls, audit logs — represent the highest-value attack surface. A single validated admin-level compromise is worth $5,000 USD. Full chain, proven exploitation, no exceptions.
All ITL996-operated web applications, APIs, admin panels, payment integrations, game backend services, and CDN edges are in scope. If they host it, proxy it, or sign it — you can test it.
Admin Access
Primary payout target. Any admin console takeover — full control over user accounts, balances, game outcomes, and platform configuration.
Payment Manipulation
Deposit/withdraw bypass, balance tampering, transaction forgery, wallet draining via API or backend flaws.
Game Integrity
RNG manipulation, bet-result forgery, house-edge bypass, jackpot or payout-ratio tampering through game API compromise.
Casino-grade risk surface
Chinese online casinos operate on thin trust margins. ITL996 connects real-money deposits to game outcomes, user account balances, and withdrawal pipelines through a stack that includes:
- Customer-facing web lobby with user registration, authentication, and wallet views
- Admin back-office for user management, blacklist/whitelist, KYC verification, balance adjustments, and game configuration
- Payment gateway integration — deposit (Alipay, WeChat, USDT, bank transfer) and withdrawal processing
- Game server APIs — RNG seed, bet placement, outcome resolution, jackpot state
- Agent/affiliate management — commission tracking, sub-account creation, revenue share
Admin access is the crown jewel. A single admin session takeover yields control over all user balances, game outcomes, withdrawal approvals, and audit trails. It is the highest-impact finding this program will pay for.
$5,000 per validated critical
There is exactly one bounty amount that maps to payouts 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 must exhibit (a) attacker-readable kill-chain storytelling and (b) objective proofs of successful exploitation replayable by ITL996 responders (Burp transcripts, scripted API sequences, SSRF egress captures, session-token extraction traces…).
Admin console takeover or privilege escalation; mass user account takeover; payment/bank balance manipulation across multiple accounts; RNG or game outcome forgery affecting real money; database access or credential dump affecting production; SSRF/cloud metadata pivot through ITL996 infra.
- Admin-level auth bypass (login, session hijack, role escalation)
- Cross-user or mass balance tampering via API or SQL injection
- Bet outcome / game RNG seed manipulation demonstrable on live games
- Full database read or write access through exposed endpoints
Illustrative map (non-exhaustive)
These rows do not impose limits — shorthand for tagging reports. Anything ITL996 hosts, signs, proxies, caches, verifies, or routes counts as bounty ground even if undocumented here. Treat "not listed" ≠ "out-of-scope": default stance is open scope across ITL996.

| CDN edge, cached assets, worker functions, redirect surfaces | Infra | $5,000 / validated bug |
Everything ITL996 operates — no exclusions list
This playbook refuses "only these SKU endpoints." Sandbox shards, mirrored tenants, game staging environments, feature-flag planes, SMTP bridges, automation hooks ITL996 patches — all bounty eligible when critical impact is reproducible across real-money surfaces.
- Every apex / vanity hostname routing through ITL996 edge — claim routing evidence in your chain write-up.
- Admin back-office panels and agent management portals
- Third-party game provider integrations ITL996 proxies or whitelabels
- Payment aggregator APIs and callback webhooks processing real money
- Mobile-responsive surfaces and PWA builds served from ITL996 origins
Rules of engagement
- Prove exploitation success. Ship artefacts third parties rerun: scripted curl flows, Burp/HAR exports, SSRF egress captures, session token forgery scripts with verified callback acceptance.
- Articulate kill chain granularity. Number each hop: auth boundary → abused endpoint → escalation → monetizable damage (admin takeover, balance manipulation, game outcome tampering, data exfiltration…).
- Responsible blast radius documentation. Quantify users or funds affected even when exercised only on staging mirrors that mirror routing + auth faithfully.
- Encrypt & ship privately. Use sanctioned intake (see submit section) before broadcasting exploit details.
- Honor duplicate fairness. First fully qualifying chain + reproducible exploitation wins treasury on collisions.

# Severity self-classification → must map to ITL996 critical definitions above
## Attack chain narrative (numbered, no gaps)
1. Preconditions (session / API key / admin context)
2. Entry primitive — exact HTTP verb/path/query/body

4. Final hop → admin takeover / balance manipulation / game outcome forgery equivalent
## Successful exploitation evidence

Node.js API vignette · admin privilege escalation through misconfigured auth middleware
// BUGGY: Admin panel middleware trusts any valid session, not role check
function adminAuth(req, res, next) {
const token = req.header('Authorization');
if (token && jwt.verify(token, secret)) {
// Missing: role claim validation — any valid user token = admin
req.user = jwt.decode(token);
next();
} else {
res.status(401).json({ error: 'Unauthorized' });
}
}
// Attack: take any user JWT (register a free account),
// send to /admin/users, /admin/withdrawals, /admin/game-config
// Result: full admin console access via user-level token
Frequently asked questions
Is anything actually "out of scope" besides illegal stuff?
No discretionary product carve-outs — only universal legal/ethical lines. If ITL996 hosts, proxies, or documents a surface, testers escalate until triage disqualifies specifics.
Do speculative write-ups without a working exploit get paid?
No. $5K critical payouts require both narrative and evidence of successful attack replay. Theory-only stalls without compensation.
Are staging / dev nets fair game?
Yes whenever ITL996 labels or operates them.
Mirror configs realistically where possible.
Can I test game RNG or outcome logic?
Yes — game backends, RNG endpoints, bet placement/resolution APIs are in scope. Use test accounts and minimal real stakes. If you can demonstrate predictable outcomes or forged results, the chain counts.
How is admin access verified for payout?
Submit a replayable PoC showing escalation from a non-privileged user session to administrative capabilities — panel access, user management, balance adjustment, game configuration, or withdrawal approval. Screenshots + raw request traces required.
Duplicates?
First validated chain + reproducible exploitation wins; followers acknowledged only.
Lower severities rewarded?
Not under this $5K-flat critical playbook — escalate impact or accept acknowledgement without cash.
Critical chain + working exploit = $5,000
