Google pauses bug bounty submissions for open-source software

Google has stopped accepting vulnerability reports for open-source software through its bug bounty program as of October 1. The company will temporarily no longer pay rewards for product flaws found in open-source projects, though reports on its own flagship products continue. The move is drawing attention in the security community, as the open-source incentive program was seen as an important way to support researchers auditing widely used projects.
Why now: Security researchers and developers are reacting to Google quietly suspending rewards for open-source vulnerability reports.
