Web 3 bug bounty platform Immunefi has suspended white hat security company Trust Security for 90 days after accusing it of unjustly refusing to pay a bug bounty after discovering a serious vulnerability that could have led to the theft of funds. On November 12, Trust Security revealed on X that its bounty team had discovered a critical funds theft vulnerability on the forked mainnet of an unnamed project.
