Bug Boundy Methodology, Tools & Resources

Start by defining a clear objective, such as exploiting a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability or bypassing authentication on your target. Then, consider how you can achieve this goal using various attack vectors like XSS, SSRF, or others - these are simply tools to help you reach your objective. Use the target as how a normal user would, while browsing keep these questions in mind: 1)How does the app pass data? 2)How/where does the app talk about users? 3)Does the app have multi-tenancy or user levels? 4)Does the app have a unique threat model? 5)Has there been past security research & vulnerabilities? 6)How does the app handle XSS, CSRF, and code injection?

Install & set up mitmweb or mitmproxy in Linux

Step 1: Go to the mitmproxy page and download the binaries. Step 2: Install the downloaded tar file with the command " tar -xzf <filename>.tar.gz " Step 3: In the FoxyProxy add the proxy 127.0.0.1:8080  and turn it on. Step 4 : In the terminal run command " ./mitmweb " Step 5: Go to the page  http://mitm.it/   and download the mitmproxy's Certificate. Step 6: If you downloaded the certificate for Firefox, then go to " settings -> Privacy & Security -> Click View Certificates -> Click  Import ", then import the certificate.  Step 7: Now you are ready to capture the web traffic. Step 8 : In terminal run " ./mitmweb"

pip error in Kali Linux: error: externally-managed-environment : SOLVED

 error: externally-managed-environment × This environment is externally managed ╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try apt install     python3-xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to     install.     If you wish to install a non-Kali-packaged Python package,     create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.     Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip. Make     sure you have pypy3-venv installed.     If you wish to install a non-Kali-packaged Python application,     it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a     virtual environment for you.
