About
Prerequisite: Complete [Junior Pentester](https://www.darkrelay.com/learning-path/junior-pentester) and [Web Application Pentester](https://www.darkrelay.com/learning-path/web-application-pentester) before this module. You should already be comfortable with SQLi, XSS, SSRF, IDOR, and LFI from a pentesting perspective before you apply them in a bounty context. In this module of the Bug Bounty Hunter learning path, you will practice bug bounty hunting against a simulated corporate bounty program on bounty.ciberbots.local. You will move beyond isolated vulnerability exploitation and learn the full bounty lifecycle: reading scope documents, running targeted recon, triaging findings by impact, exploiting bounty-relevant bug classes, writing reports that survive triage, and completing a full-scope capstone simulation. This module does not re-teach WAPT foundations. Instead, it frames each bug class through the lens of bounty operations: What does the scope allow? What severity does this finding earn? How do you prove impact? How do you write a report that gets accepted and paid? Upon completion of the module, students will be able to: - Parse bug bounty program scope documents and rules of engagement. - Run targeted recon to map attack surface on a bounty target. - Identify subdomain takeover and broken link hijacking opportunities. - Exploit client-side injection flaws (DOM XSS, open redirect, clickjacking) with bounty-grade proof of concept. - Exploit server-side flaws (SSRF, LFI) and frame findings for maximum triage impact. - Frame SQL injection findings around data exfiltration impact. - Exploit authentication flaws including password reset bypass, session fixation, and MFA bypass. - Exploit authorization flaws including IDOR, mass assignment, and rate-limit bypass. - Write structured vulnerability reports that maximize triage acceptance. - Complete a full-scope bounty simulation collecting and validating multiple findings.
