Contest registration closes at 5:00 p.m. Japan Standard Time on Jan 16th, 2025.
4. PRIZES.
Trend Micro is offering cash and prizes during the competition for vulnerabilities and exploitation techniques against the listed targets in the categories below. The first contestant to successfully compromise a target within the selected category will win the prize amount indicated for that specific target. All cash prizes are in US currency.
Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to add or modify the device list if a new version of one of the devices is released, recalled, becomes unavailable, or reaches end-of-life between the release of the rules and the contest.
Categories and Prizes:
The contest has four categories consisting of:
Each category has a set of targets that can be selected by the contestant during the registration process. All entries must compromise the device and demonstrate arbitrary code execution on the device.
If the contestant's attempt is successful, it might be eligible for an Add-on Bonus. This Add-on Bonus results in additional monetary prizes and Master of Pwn points. The contestant must identify which Add-on Bonus they are attempting during the registration process. It is possible to remove the Add-on bonuses during the attempt as long as the attempt meets the requirements of the original category without the Add-ons. If the Add-on bonus is removed during the attempt, this will impact the potential Master of Pwn points award as defined in the Master of Pwn section below. The eligibility requirements for the various Add-on Bonuses are documented in each category below.
Tesla Category
An attempt in this category must be launched against the target under test, a Tesla Model 3/Y (Ryzen-based) or equivalent bench top unit. A successful attempt against a given target must obtain remote code execution on the specified target through any vector or subsystems that are necessary to reach that specified target. Some targets will require you to exploit multiple subsystems to reach the selected target. The prize amount is based on where the final code execution occurs. The prize amounts are not cumulative.

· Any “Infotainment” entry that is leveraging vulnerabilities in the built-in browser must be chained with a sandbox escape or a root/kernel privilege escalation. The sandbox escape must result in code execution outside the browser containment measures, not just the Chromium sandbox.
· USB-based attacks in the “Infotainment” category must target the USB port that passengers would routinely plug into that is openly exposed on the center console or glovebox. Any other exposed USB ports are not in scope for this target.
· Entries against Ethernet attacks in the “Infotainment” category are eligible for an additional $10,000 USD bonus if the entry targets a service other than the exposed Odin and Update services.
· Entries targeting Odin and Update services that require physical access to the Ethernet or USB are not eligible for the Unconfined Root/Kernel Escalation of Privilege prize.
· In the “Any Tesla ECU” target, we are referring to ECUs authored/developed by Tesla. A winning entry must demonstrate arbitrary control of the target CAN bus.
· Unconfined root is defined as executing code under the "root" Linux user with full Linux capabilities, while also not restricted by any apparmor, seccomp, or iptables policy, or any Linux namespace.
· Entries related to relay, cloning, or rolljam attacks are not in scope for the contest.
· Entries that require physical access are out of scope, unless otherwise stated.
· Entries that leverage the Broadcom/LGIT Bluetooth stack are not in scope for the contest.
· Entries that require pairing a Bluetooth device must have an associated Bluetooth sandbox escape to be considered a successful entry.

Entries against the Automotive Grade Linux target are eligible for an additional $10,000 USD bonus if the entry leverages vulnerabilities in the BlueZ or the ConnMan subsystems.
Master of Pwn:
The contestant with the highest total points at the end of the contest ("Master of Pwn") will receive 65,000 ZDI reward points (estimated at $25,000 (USD)). Total points are calculated by the sum of the successful entries based on the allocated Master of Pwn points in the tables above. For example, if a contestant has a successful entry on the Automotive Grade Linux target and a successful entry in the ChargePoint Home Flex target then their total points would be 9. If two or more contestants have the same number of points at the end of the contest, each of these contestants will receive 65,000 ZDI reward points (estimated at $25,000 (USD)).
If the contestant decides to remove an Add-on Bonus during their attempt, the Master of Pwn points for that Add-on Bonus will be deducted from the final point total for that attempt. If the contestant decides to withdraw from the registered attempt after the start of the contest, the Master of Pwn points for that attempt will be divided by 2 and deducted from the contestant's point total for the contest.
Along with the prize money, the first-round winner for a given category will win the device (estimated value of $1,000 (USD)) unless otherwise stated in the Category description in Section 4. Winners of these prizes are not entitled to the difference, if any, between the actual prize value and the estimated prize value. The estimated prize value is as of the date of printing of these Contest Rules.
It is possible that a category may have no winner. If a category has no winner, Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, choose to use the prize money from that category to offer additional prize(s) in another above listed category that may be equal to or less than the initial prize offering for such category. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible participants in a category and the ability to meet the requirements of this skills-based Contest. Prizes will be distributed within eight (8) weeks after each winner has fulfilled the requirements set out herein.
Prizes must be accepted as awarded and cannot be transferred, assigned, substituted, or redeemed for cash except at the sole discretion of Sponsor. Any unused portion of a prize will be forfeited and has no cash value. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to substitute a prize of equal or greater value if a prize (or any portion thereof) cannot be awarded for any reason. Taxes on prizes, if any, are the sole responsibility of the winner.
Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to add or modify the categories if a new version of one of the targets is released, updated, hardened, becomes unavailable, or recalled between the release of the Contest Rules and the Contest.
The Sponsor shall not assume any liability for any lost or misdirected prizes.
5. WINNER SELECTION.
If more than one contestant registers for a given category, the order of the contestants will be drawn at random. Based on the contestant order, the first contestant will be given an opportunity to attempt to compromise the selected target. If unsuccessful, the next randomly drawn contestant will be given an opportunity. This will continue until a contestant successfully compromises the target. The first contestant to successfully compromise a selected target will win the prize money for that target in the category. After a target has been compromised, the contest for that category is over and no other contestants will participate in the contest for that category (unless Sponsor has offered an additional winner option, which would be announced at the Contest, if applicable).
A successful entry must leverage a vulnerability to modify the standard execution path of a program or process in order to allow the execution of arbitrary instructions. The entry is required to defeat the target's techniques designed to ensure the safe execution of code, such as, but not limited to, Data Execution Prevention (DEP), Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) and/or application sandboxing. If a sandbox is present, a full sandbox escape is required unless otherwise stated in the Category description in Section 4.
The sensitive information that the exploit must retrieve is defined by the Sponsor and will be information normally inaccessible from the application's sandbox. The exact details of the information to retrieve in the attempt will be communicated to the contestant prior to the contest.
A contestant has up to three (3) attempts to succeed. Each of the three (3) attempts will be individually limited to a time period of ten (10) minutes. For an attempt to be deemed successful, all elements of the attempt must be completed within the 10-minute window. All three (3) attempts must be completed within thirty (30) minutes, excluding the time needed to setup the device prior to the attempt. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sponsor may extend a contestant’s time period, at Sponsor’s discretion, if during an attempt, the contestant experiences any connection issues caused by inaccessible or unavailable networks, servers, Internet Service Providers, or other connections that are outside of contestant’s or Sponsor’s control.
A successful entry against these targets must require no user interaction beyond the action required to launch the attempt and must occur within the user's session with no reboots, or logoff/logons. For example, having to interact with a dialog in order to successfully complete the attempt is not allowed.
A given vulnerability may only be used once across all categories. The initial vulnerability utilized in the entry must be in the registered target. The sandbox escape utilized in the entry must be in the registered target (unless the entry leverages a kernel privilege escalation).
The targets will be running on the latest, fully patched version of the software available on the selected target. All targets will be installed in their default configurations. Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to allow non-default configurations if the Sponsor deems them to be in the normal use case of the target under test.
The vulnerabilities utilized in the attack must be unknown, unpublished, and/or not previously reported to the vendor or the Sponsor. If the entry leverages a previously known vulnerability, as evidenced by the vendor or Sponsor, Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, choose to accept the entry(ies) and offer the prize(s) at a value less than the initial prize offering for a given category.
If authentication is present, the exploit must occur prior to authentication to the service or include an authentication bypass. If the entry requires a man-in-the-middle attack, Sponsor may, in its sole discretion, choose to accept the entry(ies) and offer the prize(s) at a value less than the initial prize offering for a given category.
Sponsor reserves the right to solely determine what constitutes a successful entry. The Sponsor may, AT its sole discretion, choose to accept the entry(ies) and offer the prize(s) at a value less than the initial prize offering for a given category if the Sponsor deems that part of the exploit chain fails to meet the above rules. For example, if the entry contains a previously known vulnerability, and the vendor has not yet released a patch, Sponsor may accept the entry(ies) and offer the prize(s) at a value less than the initial prize offering for a given category.
Upon successful demonstration of the exploit, the contestant will provide Sponsor with a fully functioning exploit plus a whitepaper explaining the vulnerabilities and exploitation techniques used in the entry. In the case that multiple vulnerabilities were exploited to gain code execution, details about all of the vulnerabilities (memory corruption, infoleaks, escalations, etc.) leveraged and the sequence in which they are used must be provided to receive the prizes. Vulnerabilities and exploit techniques revealed by contest winners will be disclosed to the affected vendors and the exploits and whitepapers will become the property of the Sponsor in accordance with the ZDI researcher agreement.
6. INDEMNIFICATION BY CONTESTANT.
By entering the Contest, contestant releases and holds Sponsor harmless from any and all liability for any injuries, loss, or damage of any kind to the contestant or any other person, including personal injury, death, or property damage, resulting in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, from acceptance, possession, use, or misuse of any prize, participation in the Contest, any breach of the Contest Rules, or in any prize-related activity.
