I see that a lot of people are getting into the cybersecurity industry and are seriously looking at different career paths, learning the basics, getting their hands dirty with hands on experience, joining communities.

This is a thread. Kindly follow along.
I have also noticed that here on twitter a few CyberNewbies do not actually take their personal branding as serious as they should in line with their learning skills.
So, this is for us to learn how important Personal Branding is.

- Ongoing #NAFOIntel thread -

In both kinetic and information warfare as conflict progresses both the tactics involved and the terrain of the battlefield changes.

We hope this thread helps the #NAFO community along on their journey to assist #Ukraine to victory. #SlavaUkraine
To begin the thread we would like to focus on the issue of #NAFOfellas now getting put in time out or getting the big bonk themselves permanently.

We have people and groups that hunt trolls and report TOS violations..

They have Pro-Putin trolls that hunt Fellas & do the same.
One of their tactics, adopted from our own.. To trigger you, and bait you into your own #TangoDown ..

Never play chess with a pigeon. Even when you win.
The pigeon just knocks all the pieces over, shits all over the board, then struts around like it won. Image

1/ I am taking a little break but couldn’t resist checking-out my favourite open-source projects for any updates. Doing so, I thought it will be useful to share my top 10 projects that anyone in the #infosec field should know about. Here they are 🧵:
2/ 📊 HELK (buff.ly/3BHn9iR): The Hunting ELK (HELK) project provides an analytics and threat hunting platform for security teams to identify and respond to threats in their environment. Just load your logs and start hunting! #HELK #ThreatHunting Image
3/ 🔍 Sigma(buff.ly/3q12WOC ): Sigma enables infosec peeps to create rules for SIEM systems for detecting and responding to security incidents. It also allows us to share our rules in a non-vendor-specific format! Free detections anyone!?! #Sigma #SIEM

A lesser-known yet effective way of #bugbounty hunting is called "hacktivity" hunting. It involves bypassing fixes on disclosed reports found on @Hacker0x01's hacktivity page. This approach helped me score a $5k bounty! Here's how it works.👇

#InfoSec #CyberSecurity
With hacktivity hunting, the hard part - finding interesting behavior or insecure features - is already done for you. Your main role is to find a bypass.

For example, I found a bypass for a report on hackerone.com/reports/949643

#BugBountyTips
The original report tried to restrict access to /admin by restricting the path in Nginx. However, I bypassed it using simple encoding - /%2561dmin. Endpoints required authentication, but I bypassed this by adding ".json" at the end.

Two factor Authentication bypass : ⚔️

- In applications registration , it required a mobile number for compulsory 2 factor authentication.
- Captured the request for mobile number addition
POST /mobile/add

{XXNUMBERXX}
(1/n)

- Now followed the registration normally by adding a mobile number.
- Now when I login to account it required an otp to proceed.
- Used an invalid otp like 111111 and intercepted the request.
- Changed the request PATH and BODY to earlier captured request.
(2/n)

- They we’re implementing checks for all internal api endpoints before entering otp but forget to add check for mobile number addition request.
- I was able to add a new number without entering otp
- This led to 2fa bypass.

I have unfollowed most of the people I used to follow in #infosec and pretty much all of the musicians I used to follow, from Hall and Oates to Jamiroquai to Siouxsie and the Banshees.

Every world tour and every maskless convention selfie is a betrayal... #CovidIsNotOver 🧵
I'm finally in a point in my life where I can afford overpriced concert tickets and some travel if it's something that's really a priority to me.

But fuck no. The musicians I genuinely used to love now will never see a dime out of me ever again...
I BitTorrent their music, because even Spotify and YouTube plays would give them a fraction of a cent each time.

My favourite musicians (musically, at least) aren't even starving artists. Have you seen Jay Kay's car collection?!

😱 I asked ChatGPT "What are some of the unpopular SQL injection areas" and this is what it replied.

🧵👇

#bugbounty #cybersecurity #infosec #sqli
1. Error messages: Sometimes error messages can reveal important information about the application's database, such as table names or column names. An attacker can use this information to craft a SQL injection attack.
2. Search fields: Search fields are often overlooked when testing for SQL injection vulnerabilities, but they can be an easy target for attackers. In un-sanitized search queries, an attacker can inject SQL code to retrieve sensitive data from the database.

HTTP Parameter Pollution @SecGPT has seen in its training. Image
1. ATO via password reset

The attacker manipulates the HTTP parameters of the password reset page to change the email address associated with the account; then use the password reset link => ATO.
2. Price manipulation in e-commerce platforms

The attacker manipulates the HTTP parameters of an e-commerce website to change the price of a product. The attacker can then purchase the product at a lower price than intended.
