Immunefi is a leading bug bounty platform where security researchers can report vulnerabilities in exchange for rewards. Malek Mohamed, an Offensive Security Researcher, recently discovered multiple high-severity bugs on Immunefi, earning significant bounties.
You Should Know:
1. Setting Up for Bug Hunting
Before diving into bug hunting, ensure you have the right tools:
– Burp Suite (burpsuite) for intercepting and modifying web traffic.
– OWASP ZAP (owasp-zap) for automated vulnerability scanning.
– Nmap (nmap -sV <target>) for network reconnaissance.
– Subfinder (subfinder -d <domain>) for subdomain enumeration.
2. Common Vulnerabilities to Hunt For
- SQL Injection: Test input fields with payloads like
' OR 1=1 --. - Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Try `` in form inputs.
- Broken Authentication: Check for weak session management.
- Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR): Manipulate URLs like `/user?id=123` to
/user?id=124.
3. Automating Recon with Bash
!/bin/bash domain="example.com" subfinder -d $domain -o subs.txt httpx -l subs.txt -o live_urls.txt waybackurls $domain > archive_urls.txt gf xss live_urls.txt > xss_potential.txt
4. Reporting the Bug
- Follow Immunefi’s disclosure guidelines.
- Provide a detailed PoC (Proof of Concept) with steps to reproduce.
- Include impact analysis and suggested fixes.
What Undercode Say
Bug bounty hunting requires persistence, deep technical knowledge, and ethical responsibility. Always stay updated with new attack vectors and practice on legal platforms like Hack The Box or TryHackMe.
Prediction
As blockchain and DeFi projects grow, Immunefi will see more high-value bounties, making bug hunting a lucrative career path for skilled researchers.
Expected Output:
- Bug Report Submission
- Bounty Reward Confirmation
- Public Recognition on Immunefi
