How i won my first Bug Bounty from Google

Approved

Session Description

In this talk , i want to discuss about how i went on to find a bug in google's firestore database which has its code open sourced in Github

I found a security vulnerability and also fixed it too.

I want to discuss about how anyone can get started on contributing in open source

Also on a discussion on how open source is better for security as in closed source, fixing and discovering exploits would not be possible

I'll email them for more info? Speaker bio doesn't help either - I am a software engineer by passion with a focus on cybersecurity.

Reviewer #3 Not Sure

I don't know if we have enough time to coordinate with the speaker to validate the talk further. We could try this as a short lightning talk, given that people are on the fence.
