Google's definitely doing all that it takes to get rid of bugs and other defects on their Chrome browser, and the sheer success of their Chromium Security Rewards program, which they launched a little over two years ago, is just an extension of that thought. In an official post on the Chromium blog, Google has revealed its plan of expanding their Chrome Security Rewards Program to cover the crucial, severe Chromium OS bugs. Google, according to this post will pay a base reward of $2,000 for "well-reported, significant cross-origin bugs, such as a Universal XSS flaw, while issuing “bonuses” ranging from $500 to $1000, if a bug reporter is willing to fix the bug, they have found, themselves. However, to be eligible for the latter, the reporter will have to work with the Chromium community and develop a peer reviewed patch, and these bonuses, according to the post will be an added advantage above the base reward and it usually is between $500 and $3133.70.
