BugCrowd Bug Bounty Disclosure: P4 – Public Exposure of PII of NASA Meeting Registrations – chirag8023

Public Exposure of PII of NASA Meeting Registrations

Public Exposure of PII of NASA Meeting Registrations

Researcher: chirag8023
Engagement: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) – Vulnerability Disclosure Program
Disclosed at: 2025-09-25T16:52:13Z
Priority: P4
Status: Resolved

Summary

I discovered that multiple publicly accessible documents on NASA subdomains contained personally identifiable information (PII) of staff, collaborators, and stakeholders (names, emails, phone numbers, addresses). While the files were not hidden, they exposed sensitive contact details. I reported this exposure responsibly through Bugcrowd’s VDP so NASA could take corrective action.

The finding was made using only publicly available archival resources and manual inspection — no intrusive techniques.
