Swipe through to see a few examples of config files to check and what they can reveal!

#BugBounty #HackWithIntigriti #BugQuest

Files like robots.txt and sitemap.xml were designed to help search engines, but they often leak valuable information about application structure, including endpoints not referenced anywhere else on the target.

Day 9 of #BugQuest! 🤠

Yesterday, we listed an overview of the primary ways to discover endpoints.

Today, we're diving deep into one of the easiest and most overlooked methods: common configuration files.

From common paths and API docs to JavaScript files and mobile apps, there are multiple ways to uncover hidden endpoints that may lack proper authorization checks.

Swipe through to see the main discovery techniques! 👇

Day 8 of #BugQuest! 🤠

This week is all about finding the endpoints and resources you need to test for BAC vulnerabilities.

Today, we're covering where to start your reconnaissance. BAC bugs can appear anywhere in an application, so thorough endpoint discovery is crucial.

We'll show you how to find hidden endpoints, enumerate APIs, and uncover the resources you need to test for BAC bugs. This is also where the real fun begins! 💪

#BugBounty #HackWithIntigriti #BugQuest

Understanding patterns can help a lot when hunting new targets.

Swipe through to see the most common locations where authorization checks fail.

Next week, we’ll start with the second chapter of this series, the discovery phase.

Day 7 of #BugQuest! 🤠

Theory part is almost over (we promise!)! We've covered what BAC is, how authentication and authorization work, and what counts as a valid finding.

Today, we’re covering where you can spot BAC vulnerabilities. BACs can appear almost everywhere within an application or API.

Understanding the CIA triad (Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) is what separates accepted reports from informative and non-applicable ones.

Swipe through to learn what programs accept and what findings are likely to get rejected as informative.

Day 6 of #BugQuest! 🤠

We're almost wrapping up theory week with a crucial topic: What actually counts as a valid BAC vulnerability in bug bounty?

Not every authorization issue is impactful. Programs may reject findings that don't demonstrate real risk.

Tomorrow, we'll move into some more practical examples to help identify impactful BACs. The exploitation phase starts next week. 💪

#BugBounty #HackWithIntigriti #BugQuest

When you're hunting for BAC bugs, knowing the authorization model tells you where to look. Is it role-based? Attribute-based? Something custom? 👀

Swipe through to learn the 4 main authorization models and where you'll find them in the wild!

Day 5 of #BugQuest! 🤠

We're almost wrapping up the theory section with one more crucial topic: authorization models. 😅

Applications use different models to decide who can access what. Understanding RBAC, ABAC, DAC, and MAC helps you identify which type of authorization check is missing or broken.

Big news for our hacker community! 🤠

We're excited to launch the official Intigriti Hacker Ambassador Program, designed to support community leaders who are already making a difference through meetups, content creation, mentoring, and bringing hackers together! 😎

Swipe through to learn how most targets are designed to check if you're allowed to access that admin panel, view another user's profile, or use premium features! 👇

#BugBounty #HackWithIntigriti #BugQuest

We'll break down the differences between vertical, horizontal, and custom authorization controls, and show you the typical HTTP request/response flow that makes it all happen.

Today, we're exploring the different authorization control levels.

Understanding the authorization flow is crucial for spotting BAC vulnerabilities.

Day 4 of #BugQuest! 🤠

We're still covering the fundamentals, but stick with us as this is the most important phase for beginners. 😅

Tomorrow, we'll dive into the different authorization-level checks, and why mixing these concepts (as a developer) leads to vulnerabilities. 👀

#BugBounty #HackWithIntigriti #BugQuest

Understanding these methods is essential because authorization checks occur after authentication. If you can understand how the app identifies users, you'll also learn where to look for authorization bugs.

Swipe through to see how each method works and where they're commonly used!

Day 3 of #BugQuest! 🤠

We've covered what broken access controls are and the differences between authentication and authorization.

Today, we're exploring authentication methods, the most common ways applications verify who you are.

Stick with us while we’re covering the fundamentals of BAC. We promise this will help you identify missing or weak authorization checks throughout the rest of the month.

And be sure to come back tomorrow for Day 3! 💪

#BugBounty #HackWithIntigriti #BugQuest

Developers can sadly mix these up, and that's exactly why broken access controls are the most commonly occurring vulnerability types. 😎

Swipe through the first post to see today's BugQuest issue!

Day 2 of #BugQuest is here! 🤠

Yesterday, we covered what Broken Access Control is and why it remain the most common vulnerability type on the OWASP Top 10 2025 list.

Today's topic covers a common misconception between authentication vs authorization.
