Bug Bounty FAQ

A list of questions that bounty hunters frequently DM me about. 😄

How do I get started with bug bounty hunting? How do I improve my skills?

I have a simple philosophy that I share with everyone:

  • Learn to make it. Then break it!
  • Read books. Lots of books.

My tips for finding security issues in GitHub projects.

GitHub for Bug Bounty Hunters

GitHub repositories can disclose all sorts of potentially valuable information for bug bounty hunters. The targets do not always have to be open source for there to be issues. Organization members and their open source projects can sometimes accidentally expose information that could be used against the target company. in this article I will give you a brief overview that should help you get started targeting GitHub repositories for vulnerabilities and for general recon.

Mass Cloning

You can just do your research on github.com, but I would suggest cloning all the target's repositories so that you can run your tests locally. I would highly recommend @mazen160's GitHubCloner. Just run the script and you should be good to go.

$ python githubcloner.py --org organization -o /tmp/output

This post aims to give you a basic overview of the different issues that could possibly arise if a target links to an expired endpoint.

Unicode XSS via Combining Characters

Most application security practitioners are familiar with Unicode XSS, which typically arises from the Unicode character fullwidth-less-than-sign. It’s not a common vulnerability but does occasionally appear in applications that otherwise have good XSS protection. In this blog I describe another variant of Unicode XSS that I have identified, using combining characters. I’ve not observed this in the wild, so it’s primarily of theoretical concern. But the scenario is not entirely implausible and I’ve not otherwise seen this technique discussed, so I hope this is useful.

Recap of Unicode XSS

Lab: https://4t64ubva.xssy.uk/

A quick investigation of the lab shows that it is echoing the name parameter, and performing HTML escaping:
