Google is starting a new program that will pay security researchers a $500 bounty for every security bug they find in Chromium, the open-source codebase behind the Google Chrome browser. The program is modeled after one started some time ago by Mozilla, which also pays $500 bounties. Google is looking for flaws in the Stable, Dev and Beta channels of the Chromium codebase, and said it will not pay for bugs that are disclosed publicly before they re disclosed to Chromium developers.
