Bounty Platform used:

Hexway

https://hexway.io/hive

We respect the privacy of clients we are working on Hackerone.com & use only passive techniques, we do not share anything related to security misconfigurations, and everything is taken from passive resources, including the techniques performed. The purpose is for Educational only!

We will update the list everytime we add/remove tools.

Some of the Methodologies we use during our Stream, since we had many requests to post it, here you go:

As seen on Hackerone.com Passive Bounty Focused for Quick Pwning:

Project Notes & Recon Approach Techniques:

Main Domain:

XXXX Enter from Scope XXXX

Secondary . Domains:

XXXX Enter from Scope XXXX

Single Sub-domains:

XXXX Enter from Scope XXXX

Passive Recon Techniques:

You can use also BHEH-SUB-PWNER New!

https://github.com/blackhatethicalhacking/bheh-sub-pwner

1. Create Folders (Subdomains, URLS, IPs)

2. Recon-ng - Recon Passively for subdomains/ips/ports/params/js

3. Export lists from recon-ng and use httpx to create urls/probing (urls/IPs/Subdomains)

4. Use isup.sh to filter ips

UPLOAD ALL RESULTS INTO PLATFORM

Note:

If you see domain.* you have to use the below technique:

TLD Wordlist:

https://gist.githubusercontent.com/gingeleski/b01633b07183ff572198dd7e31bbd4b0/raw/5e015d43b4e7b692be49fb3f42f03e1693c370bb/domain_extensions_payloads.txt

Ctrl+H with regex mode enabled and replace ^ with domainname

Then Use :

https://github.com/blackhatethicalhacking/Domain2IP-Converter

Then Run subdomains using httpx for urls

Use updog to offer easier workflow when uploading/checking directories locally.

For example when using a raspberry pi, or VPS it helps uploading files locally on the machine.

---

5. Use Nmap Aggressive Scan & Save to XML to Import into Bounty Platform:

nmap -iL ips.txt -sSV -A -T4 -O -Pn -v -F -oX nmap2.xml

Extra Sn1per - WebApp Mode:

sniper -f /root/Desktop/Bounty/Airbnb/ips/valid-airbnb_ips.txt -m massweb -w airbnbtestweb

UPLOAD ALL RESULTS INTO PLATFORM

Examine Some Services Manually from the Cloud Platform Hive: New!

Use Metasploit + Searchsploit to manually search - note down certain areas of interest including Log4j Patterns.

This could take days/weeks - So, its a non stop process.

5b. Extra Osmedeus Scan New!

You can use on the list of IP addresses, a domain or list of URLs gathered Osemedeus with UI to go for more in depth recon/attacks on CVEs:

osmedeus server

for the UI

Directly run on vuln scan and directory scan on list of domains

osmedeus scan -f vuln-and-dirb -t list-of-domains.txt

Scan list of targets

 osmedeus scan -T list_of_targets.txt

Get target from a stdin and start the scan with 2 concurrency

 cat list_of_targets.txt | osmedeus scan -c 2

Start a simple scan with default 'general' flow

 osmedeus scan -t sample.com

One Liner Very Powerful Techniques New!

Check for Heartbleed:

cat subdomains.txt | while read line ; do echo "QUIT" | openssl s_client -connect $line:443 2>&1 | grep 'server extension "heartbeat" (id=15)' || echo $line: safe; done

Extract Javascripts from domains, and fetch only the URLS from those big files, can also be used with any type of file containing huge data:

First use getJs to get the Javascripts:

getJS --url website.com --output /root/results.txt

getJS --input urls.txt --output /root/results.txt

Extract URLs directly or from a file using this one-liner:

From any type of file: cat file | grep -Eo "(http|https)://[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_-]"

Directly from a website: curl https://domain.xx/file.js | grep -Eo "(http|https)://[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_-]"

OSINT: (Can be done on RPI)

Check for Domain TakeOver with Takeover by M4llok

Takeover Tool:

takeover -l sub_domains.txt -v -t 10

**Check for open Amazon S3 buckets

ls | grep s3 from nuclei-templates/technologies

Can use nuclei -l urls.txt -t /root/nuclei-templates/technologies/s3-detect.yaml

Attack Buckets: New!

https://github.com/blackhatethicalhacking/s3-buckets-aio-pwn

6. Use ParamSpider to Hunt for URLS with Parameters automatically from wayback machine - You can also use Arjun, we are switching to ParamSpider as part of building a workflow

python3 paramspider.py --domain DOMAINNAME.com --exclude woff,png,svg,php,jpg --output /root/Desktop/Bounty/params.txt

Technique to Clean Params from XSS:

sed 's/unix/linux/g' reconfile.txt

7. Use Smuggler on URLs list to test for http requests that could desync, and posting multiple chunked requests to smuggle external sources so the backend server will forward the request with cookies, data to the front end server

(Can be done on RPI)

cat list_of_urls.txt | python3 smuggler.py -l /root/location.txt

Bonus

A) Eyewitness to take Screenshots of all URLS, Will run on VPS only! New!

eyewitness -f /root/Desktop/Bounty/Client/urls.txt

zip -r name.zip folder

Examine the Results Manually

B) Pattern Check Example for Results with gf & gf-patterns:

After you have the Parameters Gathered, we want to check for specific patterns and possible vulnerable URLs that can be attacked using Meg or other Fuzzing Tools.

cat /root/Desktop/Bounty/params.txt | gf xss | sed 's/FUZZ/ /g' >> /root/Desktop/Bounty/xss_params_forMeg.txt

Very Powerful One Liner - You can Pipe also directly to Meg.

8. Use Meg with Seclist fuzzing for Links: (Gathered from gau/arjun/paramspider/gf)

For Meg, we must remove the ‘FUZZ’ from paramspider and replace it with a null character:

sed 's/FUZZ//g' reconfile.txt

meg -v LFI-gracefulsecurity-linux.txt /root/Desktop/Bounty/urls.txt /root/Desktop/urls.txt -s 200

9. JSScanner:

Scanning Javascript Files for Endpoints, Secrets, Hardcoded credentials,IDOR, Openredirect and more

Paste URLS into alive.txt

Run script alive.txt - Examine the results using GF advanced patterns

Use tree command, cat into subdirectories:

cat * /.txt cat /.js | gf api-keys cat //.txt | gf ssrf > /root/Desktop/ssrf.txt

Or New Method with GitLeaks: New!

Scan a Directory with Javascripts, Files, Json Etc.. for Secrets!

gitleaks --path=/directory -v --no-git

Scan a File with Any Extension for Secrets!

gitleaks --path=/file.xxx -v --no-git

10. Find XSS Vulnerabilities from Paramspider & Dalfox New!

Since we have params urls from paramspider, dalfox needs to know where to inject, and you can define it with XSS instead of FUZZ, so here is a command to replace this from the result, and create a new list to be used on dalfox.

sed 's/FUZZ/XSS/g' reconfile.txt

You are now ready for parsing the urls into dalfox in pipe mode:

cat /root/Desktop/Bounty/xss_params.txt | dalfox pipe | cut -d " " -f 2 > output.txt

or

dalfox file /root/Desktop/Bounty/xss_params.txt | cut -d " " -f 2 > output.txt

For Deeper Attacks add this:

--deep-domxss

Silence --silence Prints only PoC When found and progress

10 - After Recon: New!

When you find Keys/Tokens - Check from here:

OSINT & Passive Amplified Attacks: (Raspberry Pi)

OSINT:

Perform OSINT using spiderfoot

One off 1337 Powerful Command Attacks with amass:

1. Nuclei:

amass enum -passive -d [subdomain] -v | httpx -verbose | nuclei -t /root/nuclei-templates/cves/ -o /root/Desktop/Bounty/location.txt

2. Jaeles:

amass enum -passive -d [Domain] -v | httpx -verbose | jaeles scan -s 'cves' -s 'sensitive' -s 'fuzz' -s ‘common' -s 'routines' report -o /root/Desktop/Bounty/reportname.txt --title "[Client] Jaeles Full Report"

3. Use Eyewitness to take screenshots from URLs

eyewitness -f /root/Desktop/Bounty/Client/urls.txt

More Tools: chopchop / inception / jsql

./gochopchop scan --url-file /root/Desktop/Bounty/urls.txt --threads 4

Sn1per - Bounty Mode on Active Results

sniper -f /root/Desktop/Bounty/Airbnb/ips/valid-airbnb_ips.txt -m massweb -w airbnbtestweb

RPI Copy: scp -P 7 /root/Desktop/test.txt [email protected]:/root

use Gotty https://github.com/yudai/gotty

gotty -p 1337 -w recon-ng

Gau - for realtime URL extraction when performing manual search so you can have urls to attack.

Hunt for Links that have Parameters by using gau (Get all URLS) and displaying all links that have params:

cat subdomains.txt | gau | tee /root/Desktop/urls.txt | lolcat

gau domains -o urls.txt gau example.com gau -o example-urls.txt example.com gau -b png,jpg,gif example.com
