Web Application Security & Bug Bounty (Methodology, Reconnaissance, Vulnerabilities, Reporting)

Hello Folks , Hope everyone is doing good. This blog is basically for Web Security Methodology (WSM).

Have you read my last post regarding “Bug Bounty Methodology” ? If you missed it go to this BBM link https://medium.com/@infosecsanyam/bug-bounty-hunting-methodology-toolkit-tips-tricks-blogs-ef6542301c65

Bug bounty methodology (BBM) :)

Now this time i will share methodology for Web Application Security Assessment from beginning to end (Recon to Reporting/ R&R) . Try to cover most of the vulnerabilities links for web application security.

Methodology of Application Vulnerability Assessment & Pen-testing

Defining a Scope

Reconnaissance

Manual Assessment (Web Security Vulnerabilities)

Reports

Defining a Scope :

Each bug bounty or Web Security Project has a “scope”, or in other words, a section of a Scope of Project ,websites of bounty program’s details that will describe what type of security vulnerabilities a program is interested in receiving, where a researcher is allowed to test and what type of testing is permitted. On Bug-crowd, a bounty’s scope can be found in the “Program Details” bounty brief section of a program page. In your web application project has give the scope which websites , subdomains, api’s links for assessment.

Reconnaissance:

Therefore I will not be explaining how to test for vulnerabilities, but rather where to test for them & the tools you can use. This is mainly just a general overview of how someone would map out a target site and efficiently perform reconnaissance to gain as much info on the site as possible before beginning their audit.Recon is an essential element of any penetration testing.

For Finding Web Security Vulnerabilities are not very simple . When you’re taking part in a bug bounty program, you’re competing against both the security of the site, and also against the thousands of other people who are taking part in the program. For this reason, it’s important to think critically.

This is why passive and active reconnaissance is especially important for Scope, as you need to look a lot deeper than you would in a regular penetration test.

Sometimes I forgot to do That and Shit happens Submitting things that aren’t within scope of the bounty program, tells the people running the program that you haven’t properly read the terms, and it will lead to them not taking your future reports seriously. I mean Seriously

Start a Reconnaissance

Subdomain Finding :

1. https://pentest-tools.com/

2. https://virustotal.com/

3. https://www.shodan.io/

4. https://crt.sh/?q=%25taregt.com

5. https://dnsdumpster.com/

6. https://censys.io

7. http://dnsgoodies.com

Github Open Source tools for Subdomain Finding :-

1. https://bitbucket.org/LaNMaSteR53/recon-ng
2. https://github.com/michenriksen/aquatone
3. https://github.com/aboul3la/Sublist3r
4. https://github.com/rbsec/dnscan
5. https://github.com/Cleveridge/cleveridge-subdomain-scanner

After getting all sub-domains we found two methods to scan an ip’s, ports and Services:

1. Masscan can also help https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/masscan

2. Aquatone : https://github.com/michenriksen/aquatone

3. Nmap

Also Just don’t get limited to Subdomains Try extracting vhosts 🙂 tools like

1. https://pentest-tools.com/information-gathering/find-virtual-hosts
2. https://github.com/jobertabma/virtual-host-discovery
3. https://github.com/ChrisTruncer/EyeWitness 🙂
4. httpscreenshot https://github.com/breenmachine/httpscreenshot/
5. WAF (+ WAF type) — https://github.com/EnableSecurity/wafw00f
6. https://github.com/danielmiessler/SecLists
7. https://github.com/yasinS/sandcastle
8. https://digi.ninja/projects/bucket_finder.php

Also Don’t forget your best friend Google :p Use google Dorks U can make your own or use make by others 😉

Try it out

1. https://pentest-tools.com/information-gathering/google-hacking
2. https://github.com/1N3/Goohak/
3. https://github.com/ZephrFish/GoogD0rker/

Google Dorks :

site:target.com -www
site:target.com intitle:”test” -support
site:target.com ext:php | ext:html
site:subdomain.target.com
site:target.com inurl:auth
site:target.com inurl:dev

Information Gathering Part

1. Whois Information

2. Subdomains

3. Dir info

4. S3 Buckets

5. social accounts

6. API Endpoints

7. emails

8. Vhosts

9. Backend IP address

10. Open Ports / Services running

11. Service version info (if applicable)

12. server banners

13. directory listings

14. presence security headers

Make sure to spend as much time as possible performing recon, until you have a pretty good feel of how the site operates,

There are even occasions where passive recon can lead to some important information Disclosure. i.e. searching github or pastebin for the company name and stumbling across some random source that ended up online after some sloppy developer wrote it.

For that I would prefer

1. https://github.com/1N3/Sn1per (for web)
2. https://github.com/michenriksen/gitrob (for github)
3. https://github.com/dxa4481/truffleHog
4. https://github.com/IOActive/RepoSsessed
5. https://github.com/anshumanbh/git-all-secrets

Don’t forget to look deep into Js files well manually you will love it But time saving is the goal so try using tools like

1 https://github.com/jobertabma/relative-url-extractor

To look for older content that can give u ideas of site structure or maybe vulnerable endpoints 😉 For that use

1. https://web.archive.org/
2. https://gist.github.com/mhmdiaa/2742c5e147d49a804b408bfed3d32d07

Maybe reverse whois lookup will help to discover more potential targets but make sure that they are in scope

1. http://viewdns.info/reversewhois/?q=

Alright, so then there’s this thing called PunkSpider. (https://www.punkspider.org) “It is a global web application vulnerability search engine. Don’t get too excited though.

Web Application Vulnerabilities & Bug Bounty Reference

A list of bug bounty / web app security write-up that is categorized by the bug nature,

1 Sql Injection :

SQL injection is a kind of injection vulnerability in which the attacker tries to inject arbitrary pieces of malicious data(Code) into the input fields of an application, which, when processed by the application, causes that data to be executed as a piece of code by the back end SQL server, thereby giving undesired results which the developer of the application did not anticipate.

Writing Successful Bug & Vulnerability Submission Report

What does a good report look like?

Legend has it that the best bug bounty hunters can write reports in their sleep. OK, jokes aside, while writing reports is a very important part of bug bounty hunting, we can simplify this whole process by following these basic guidelines.

Summary

The first section of your report should start with a brief summary introducing the reader to your finding. Summaries can be as simple as:

example.com is vulnerable to reflected XSS via the q parameter.

Or as detailed as:

https://imgur.com/vidgif/url endpoint is vulnerable to a SSRF vulnerability which allows an attacker to craft connections originating from imgur servers to any destination on the internet and imgur internal network and craft outgoing UDP-packets / telnet-based protocol sessions (for example, to connect to SMTP servers from imgur and send spam). [1]

Vulnerability Description

This section covers all the details related to your finding. State what you found again, make the technical points clear, and explain what causes the issue. There are exceptions though where this section can be skipped. There is a popular English idiom:

“A picture is worth a thousand words.”

The same can be said about an excellent proof of concept:

“A phenomenal security vulnerability proof of concept is worth a thousand words.”
- Probably Gandhi

Proof of concept

The proof of concept is where you really need to demonstrate the impact in the “flashiest” way possible. Make it as easy as possible for the program to see what the issue is. If your issue is cross-site scripting, then an alert(document.domain) can go a long way to help the program figure out where the issue lies.

Browsers verified in

Even if the issue is not browser-dependent, it is good practice to inform the program about what browser you used to trigger the vulnerability. This can help the team behind the bug bounty program reproduce your finding.

• Google Chrome: visit chrome://version/
• Mozilla Firefox: top-right menu icon → ? “Help” → “About Firefox”
• Microsoft Internet Explorer: top-right cog → “About Internet Explorer”
• Microsoft Edge: … → “Settings” → scroll down

Mitigation

If you followed the advice in “How do I get started with bug bounty hunting?”, you should be capable of giving a brief description of how the bug bounty program should fix your finding. It is also a good idea to link to the relevant OWASP Prevention cheat sheet.
