Don't forget to give ⭐ on the github** to motivate me to continue developing this book.
The web service is the most common and extensive service and a lot of different types of vulnerabilities exists.
Default port: 80 (HTTP), 443(HTTPS)
In this methodology we are going to suppose that you are going to a attack a domain (or subdomain) and only that. So, you should apply this methodology to each discovered domain, subdomain or IP with undetermined web server inside the scope.
Some tricks for finding vulnerabilities in different well known technologies being used:
If the source code of the application is available in github, apart of performing by your own a White box test of the application (no guide available yet in hacktricks) there is some information that could be useful for the current Black-Box testing:
Is there a Changelog or Readme or Version file or anything with version info accesible via web?
How and where are saved the credentials? Is there any (accesible?) file with credentials (usernames or passwords)?
Are passwords in plain text, encrypted or which hashing algorithm is used?
Is it using any master key for encrypting something? Which algorithm is used?
Can you access any of these files exploiting some vulnerability?
Is there any interesting information in the github (solved and not solved) issues? Or in commit history (maybe some password introduced inside an old commit)?
Take into account that the same domain can be using different technologies in different ports, folders and subdomains. If the web application is using any well known tech/platform listed before or any other, don't forget to search on the Internet new tricks (and let me know!).
You should look for these kind of vulnerabilities every time you find a path were a different technology is running. For example, if you find a java webapp and in /wordpress a wordpress is running.
If a CMS is used don't forget to run a scanner, maybe something juicy is found:
At this point you should already have some information of the web server being used by the client (if any data is given) and some tricks to keep in mind during the test. If you are lucky you have even found a CMS and run some scanner.
From this point we are going to start interacting with the web application.
/robots.txt
/sitemap.xml
Some 404 error - Some interesting data could be presented here.
If you find that WebDav is enabled but you don't have enough permissions for uploading files in the root folder try to:
Brute Force credentials
Upload files via WebDav to the rest of found folders inside the web page. You may have permissions to upload files in other folders.
Information about SSL/TLS vulnerabilities:
Launch some kind of spider inside the web. The goal of the spider is:
Read the next section "Special Findings" to search for more information on each file found.
Note that anytime a new directory is discovered during brute-forcing or spidering, it should be spidered.
Start brute-forcing from the root folder and be sure to brute-force all the directories found using this method and all the directories discovered by the Spidering (you can do this brute-forcing recursively and appending at the beginning of the used wordlist the names of the found directories). Tools:
Dirb / Dirbuster - Included in Kali, old (and slow) but functional. Allow auto-signed certificates and recursive search.
Recommended dictionaries:
Dirsearch included dictionary
/usr/share/wordlists/dirb/common.txt
/usr/share/wordlists/dirb/big.txt
/usr/share/wordlists/dirbuster/directory-list-2.3-medium.txt
Note that anytime a new directory is discovered during brute-forcing or spidering, it should be Brute-Forced.
Once you have found all the files, look for backups of all the executable files (".php", ".aspx"...). Common variations for naming a backup are: file.ext~, #file.ext#, ~file.ext, file.ext.bak, file.ext.tmp, file.ext.old, file.bak, file.tmp and file.old
While performing the spidering and brute-forcing you could find interesting things that you have to notice.
Look for links to other files inside the CSS files.
Comments: Check the comments of all the files, you can find credentials or hidden functionality.
If you are playing CTF, a "common" trick is to hide information inside comments at the right of the page (using hundreds of spaces so you don't see the data if you open the source code with the browser). Other possibility is to use several new lines and hide information in a comment at the bottom of the web page.
If the javascript code is obfuscated, these tools could be useful:
Try using different verbs to access the file: GET, POST, INVENTED
If /path is blocked, try using /%2e/path _(if the access is blocked by a proxy, this could bypass the protection). Try also /%252e/path_ (double URL encode)
Try Unicode bypass: /%ef%bc%8fpath (The URL encoded chars are like "/") so when encoded back it will be //path and maybe you will have already bypassed the /path name check
Other path bypasses:
site.com/secret –> HTTP 403 Forbidden
site.com/SECRET –> HTTP 200 OK
site.com/secret/ –> HTTP 200 OK
site.com/secret/. –> HTTP 200 OK
site.com//secret// –> HTTP 200 OK
site.com/./secret/.. –> HTTP 200 OK
site.com/secret.json –> HTTP 200 OK (ruby)
Other bypasses:
/v3/users_data/1234 --> 403 Forbidden
/v1/users_data/1234 --> 200 OK
{“id”:111} --> 401 Unauthriozied
{“id”:[111]} --> 200 OK
{“id”:111} --> 401 Unauthriozied
{“id”:{“id”:111}} --> 200 OK
{"user_id":"<legit_id>","user_id":"<victims_id>"} (JSON Parameter Pollution)
user_id=ATTACKER_ID&user_id=VICTIM_ID (Parameter Pollution)
X-Originating-IP: 127.0.0.1
X-Forwarded-For: 127.0.0.1
X-Remote-IP: 127.0.0.1
X-Remote-Addr: 127.0.0.1
X-ProxyUser-Ip: 127.0.0.1
X-Original-URL: 127.0.0.1
If the path is protected you can try to bypass the path protection using these other headers:
X-Original-URL: /admin/console
X-Rewrite-URL: /admin/console
Guess the password: Test the following common credentials. Do you know something about the victim? Or the CTF challenge name?
If any page responds with that code, it's probably a bad configured proxy. **If you send a HTTP request like: GET https://google.com HTTP/1.1 (with the host header and other common headers), the proxy will try to access _google.com_ and you will have found a SSRF**.
If the running server asking for authentication is Windows or you find a login asking for your credentials (and asking for domain name), you can provoke an information disclosure.
Send the header: “Authorization: NTLM TlRMTVNTUAABAAAAB4IIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=” and due to how the NTLM authentication works, the server will respond with internal info (IIS version, Windows version...) inside the header "WWW-Authenticate".
You can automate this using the nmap plugin "http-ntlm-info.nse".
It is possible to put content inside a Redirection. This content won't be shown to the user (as the browser will execute the redirection) but something could be hidden in there.
If you find a login page, here you can find some techniques to try to bypass it:
Check for comments inside the page (scroll down and to the right?)
Check if you can directly access the restricted pages
Check to not send the parameters (do not send any or only 1)
Check for default credentials
Check for common combinations (root, admin, password, name of the tech, default user with one of these passwords)
Check the PHP comparisons error: user[]=a&pwd=b , user=a&pwd[]=b , user[]=a&pwd[]=b
Create a dictionary using Cewl, add the default username and password (if there is) and try to brute-force it using all the words as usernames and password
You should also check for:
Check for **[SQL INSERT INTO Injections.*](../../pentesting-web/sql-injection/#insert-statement)\***
Check for this vulnerabilities:
Check if there are known vulnerabilities for the server version that is running. The HTTP headers and cookies of the response could be very useful to identify the technologies and/or version being used. Nmap scan can identify the server version, but it could also be useful the tools , or :
Search for ****
As commented the cookies can be very useful to identify the technology in used (if well known) but if the used cookies are custom, they could be vulnerable. So if you find a custom sensitive cookie you should . Also, the can also be interesting from a security point of view.

Use to checks for vulnerabilities (In Bug Bounty programs probably these kind of vulnerabilities won't be accepted) and use to recheck the vulnerabilities:
Find all files and folders (, , ). (lets see if you can takeover something). You can also find links using , which supports JS rendering.
Find all possible parameters for each executable file. You can help yourself in this matter using .

**** (Very interesting)
You use tools like **[Arjun]() and [Parameth]() to discover hidden parameters. If you can, you could try to search hidden parameters** on each executable web file.
If you find API endpoints you . These aren't files, but will probably "look like" them.
API keys: If you find any API key there is guide that indicates how to use API keys of different platforms: ,
S3 Buckets: While spidering look if any subdomain or any link is related with some S3 bucket. In that case, .
The JS code of a web application can be really interesting: It could contain API keys, credentials, other endpoints, and understanding it you could be able to bypass security measures. It could be also very useful to parse the JS files in order to search for other endpoints: , (wrap of LinkFinder), , . Another interesting approach could be monitoring the JS files with a tool like that checks for changes. You should also check if the application is using any outdated and vulnerable javascript library with: ****
Javascript Deobfuscator and Unpacker ()
Javascript Beautifier ()
BrainFuck deobfuscation (javascript with chars:"[]!+" )
In several occasions you will need to understand regular expressions used, this will be useful:
Try to stress the server sending common GET requests ().
Go to and check if in the past that file was worldwide accessible.
Fuzz the page: Try using HTTP Proxy Headers, HTTP Authentication Basic and NTLM brute-force (with a few combinations only) and other techniques. To do all of this I have created the tool .
Test manually .
Try to brute-force using a bigger dictionary ()
