Facebook

Facebook has a bug bounty program with a minimum payout of $500, but as the very direct language in their responsible disclosure policy attests, they do not tolerate mucking about with production data: if you comply with the policies when reporting a security issue to Facebook, they will not initiate a lawsuit or law enforcement investigation against you in response to your report.

The amount of information available for their program is minimal. You'll find a side-by-side example of a submission report and an improved version, with some non-qualifying vulnerabilities, but not much in the way of universal lessons or professional tips.

As the legalese signals, Facebook is very sensitive to misuse of its platform  especially given recent increased scrutiny. And because so many exploits will be aimed at affecting users, it's critical to stop short of writing any code that could subvert an account.
