Connect to the kCTF VRP cluster, obtain root and read the flag (read this writeup for how it was done before, and this threat model for inspiration), and then submit your flag and a checksum of your exploit in this form.

(If applicable) report vulnerabilities to upstream.

We strongly recommend including a patch since that could qualify for an additional reward from our Patch Reward Program, but please report vulnerabilities upstream promptly once you confirm they are exploitable.

Report your finding to Google VRP once all patches are publicly available (we don't want to receive details of unpatched vulnerabilities ahead of the public.)
