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.

Unlocking the Secrets: Breaking Access Controls, the basics πŸ‘‡

(from the AI model I'm currently training on security reports) Image
1. Direct object reference

This occurs when an attacker is able to access a resource directly by manipulating a parameter in the URL or form data.
2. Horizontal privilege escalation

This occurs when an attacker is able to access resources or perform actions that are intended for another user with the same level of access.

Often times to simplify my work I build scripts.πŸ‘‡

I recently discovered katana by @pdiscoveryio. And I turned this:

katana -d 5 -c 50 -p 20 -ef "ttf,woff,svg,jpeg,jpg,png,ico,gif,css" -u <https://tld> -cs "regex-to-restrict-to-tld-and-subdomains"

into this:

kata <tld>
1. The long command does the following:

-d => depth 5
-c => concurrency 50
-p => threads in parallel 20
-ef => exclude these
-u => supply the top level domain (i.e. twitter.com)
-cs => scope for this regex (limited to the tld and its subdomains)
2. You can download the kata bash script from my repo below. Use it as:

kata <tld>

Do me a favor and star the repo, thanks!

As much as I love automation in recon, 98% of the findings in my pentests have nothing to do with it. Why? πŸ‘‡
1. Inspired by @NahamSec recent video.

First, in a large majority of the web pentests, clients want me to focus only on their app and it's features. So, there's no need for subdomain enumeration/bruteforcing or any other large recon tactic.
2. This doesn't mean that I don't use automation. I automate some of the boring and repetitive tasks via bash and python.

More practice, less theory (but not 0 theory)

In the past, I criticized Top 1% THM who know close to nothing about the real-world aspects of a pentest.

My point was not understood and I got a lot of hate for it. Image
1. Again, there's less value in being Top 1% if your experience is purely theoretical.

Yet, you will go way further if you complement your experience (from day-to-day work in cybersecurity) with continuous practice on THM and other platforms (focusing on non-CTFish materials).
2. If you're not working in cybersecurity yet, but you want to, no problem.

Get your daily real-world experience from VDPs (and not paid bounties).

Today marks the first anniversary of the Russia-Ukraine #cyberwar that killed <checks Microsoft's & Mandiant's reports> no one.

Let's go over last year's mass cyberwar #panic. We'll begin with one of the earliest calls to #boycott @Kaspersky:
There was an immediate feeling that everyone must cancel all Kaspersky subscriptions, as if customers -- especially corporate clients -- had a competitor's product waiting in the wings to replace it in some trivial fashion:
Likewise, there was an immediate plea to [translated] "remove Kaspersky from your PC. Now. Immediately." Again, as if customers -- especially corporate clients -- could do it trivially and without serious consequences:

(1/6) To all investigators out there who have heard of #Maltego before, but still looking for more information. Here's what you need to know about Maltego πŸ‘‡ #OSINT #infosec
(2/6) #Maltego is a link analysis tool that helps you automatically pull and map data from over 70 public data sources (#OSINT) and third-party data providers, and your own imported or custom data integrations. All of this done with a few clicks on the mouse in one interface.
(3/6) You start by providing input information for your investigation (name, alias, domain, IP address, etc.), install the data integrations you want to use, and #Maltego will retrieve relevant Entities from the data integrations and visualize the data connections between them.

More SQLi tips.

1. Append a ' or " to a valid param value.
2. If the response changes, replace the ' or " with each of these in turn (sub ' with " as needed):

' '
'||'
'+'

3. If you get the original response back, you likely have SQLi.

#bugbountytips #Cybersecurity #InfoSec
I call this the "break and repair" method. Your initial ' or " breaks the statement syntax.

The 3 values in step 2 are "repairs". They change your initial break into a valid concatenation with an empty string, which results in the original value (and response).
Once you have a potential SQLi, you can use boolean logic to confirm it.

Replace your repair with:

' AND '1'='1
' AND '1'='2

The first should get the same response as the initial (non-SQLi) value. The second should not.
