Essential Bug Bounty Tools & Commands

1. Reconnaissance & Subdomain Enumeration

 Subfinder (Fast subdomain discovery) 
subfinder -d example.com -o subdomains.txt

Amass (In-depth subdomain enumeration) 
amass enum -d example.com -active -o amass_results.txt

Assetfinder (Quick subdomain search) 
assetfinder --subs-only example.com > assets.txt 

2. Vulnerability Scanning with Nuclei

 Run Nuclei with common vulnerability templates 
nuclei -u https://example.com -t ~/nuclei-templates/ -o nuclei_results.txt

Fast scan with critical severity checks 
nuclei -u https://example.com -severity critical,high -silent 
  1. Web Application Testing with Burp Suite & OWASP ZAP
    Start OWASP ZAP in daemon mode 
    zap.sh -daemon -port 8080 -host 0.0.0.0
    
    Automated scan with ZAP 
    zap-cli quick-scan --spider -r -s all http://example.com 
    

4. Exploiting Common Vulnerabilities

 SQL Injection with SQLmap 
sqlmap -u "http://example.com/page?id=1" --dbs --batch

XSS Testing with XSS Hunter 
curl -X POST "http://example.com/search?q=<script>alert(1)</script>" 

5. Automating Bug Hunting with Bash

!/bin/bash 
 Auto-recon script 
echo "Running recon on $1" 
subfinder -d $1 -o subs.txt 
httpx -l subs.txt -o live_subs.txt 
nuclei -l live_subs.txt -t ~/nuclei-templates/ -o vulns.txt 

What Undercode Say

Bug bounty hunting is a lucrative skill, but it requires persistence. Here are key takeaways:
– Recon is King: The more subdomains and endpoints you discover, the higher your chances of finding bugs.
– Automate Repetitive Tasks: Use scripts to speed up scanning and filtering.
– Stay Updated: Follow platforms like HackerOne, Bugcrowd, and GitHub for new bug reports and techniques.
– Practice Legal Hacking: Always get permission before testing.

For advanced hunters, explore:

  • Linux Privilege Escalation:
    linpeas.sh  Automated Linux priv esc checker 
    
  • Windows Exploitation:
    whoami /priv  Check user privileges 
    

Prediction

Bug bounty programs will grow exponentially, with AI-assisted vulnerability discovery becoming mainstream. Expect more automated bug hunting tools and higher rewards for critical exploits.
