Mission Vector Zero is dedicated to uncovering high-impact vulnerabilities in 30+ targets, each demonstrably affecting over 250,000 users or digital assets, and meeting the severity threshold of CVSS 6.0 or VRT P1-P3 classification.

Through Mission Vector Zero, we aim to identify vulnerabilities in widely used systems and software. Our focus spans the entire technology stack, from web applications to hardware with deliberate emphasis on high-impact, widely adopted targets. Every finding must meet strict, verifiable criteria for impact and adoption.
In scope (examples):
Note: Inclusion in scope does not mean every category will be actively tested. These are potential target types available for selection.
We will not pursue low-impact or trivial issues. Each vulnerability considered for this mission must meet the following standards:
Unlike previous missions focused on CVE hunting, we cannot always disclose full details of the vulnerabilities identified, especially for private bug bounty or government engagements (e.g., Department of Defense).
Instead, for institutional verification, we will provide the following metadata:

Alasdair Gorniak identified a sensitive data exposure vulnerability on one of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) subdomains. The vulnerability was submitted on Sep 16, 2025 and was resolved on Oct 27, 2025.
Alexandru Ionut Raducu identified a XSS vulnerability in ProjectSend and later increased the severity of the vulnerability from a simple XSS to full administrator account takeover.
Luke Smith (Daeda1us) discovered that Apache Druid versions through 34.0.0 use a weak, guessable fallback secret for signing Kerberos authentication cookies when druid.auth.authenticator.kerberos.cookieSignatureSecret is not configured. Because the system relies on ThreadLocalRandom, a non-cryptographic PRNG, attackers may be able to predict or forge tokens. The issue also results in each node generating its own secret, causing inconsistent authentication behavior in distributed clusters.
