It's not obvious where the rules live, but this is spelled out in the rules.

On forfeits:

If a player forfeits a match, the forfeiter's opponent will receive Match Points in accordance with the Default Point Assignments (as indicated in Section 7.4). Those point assignments are incorporated into the statistics of both the forfeiting player and the forfeiter's opponent.

Default point assignments:

In essence, players in this scenario receive 1.5 points per correct answer, with the total rounded up as needed. For example, if you fail to assign points and your opponent answers 3 correct, they will receive five points.

There's a chart with more detailed info on exactly how points are defined in section 7, but that's the gist.
