Bug bounty scope gap on highest-TVL contracts
Aave v3's assessment for RD-F-183 — scored green on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.
Evidence summary #
Immunefi program covers core Aave v3 contracts with $1M max payout and 83 in-scope assets per T-10. The rsETH OFT adapter exploited in April 2026 was a Kelp DAO contract, not an Aave core contract. No evidence that Aave's highest-TVL contracts (Pool, PoolAddressesProvider, etc.) are excluded from bounty scope.
