Think like a developer, act like an attacker. Study how applications are built before you try to break them. Understanding architecture, common frameworks, authentication flows, and data handling patterns will give you a huge edge. Don’t chase bugs randomly — build hypotheses, validate them, and go deep. And most importantly, document everything. A disciplined hacker is a dangerous one. 😡😎

Here I will tell you a few things that will affect you in the bug bounty.

Mindset 🧠

Be patient, not desperate

Sometimes it doesn't catch you for a few days, but you still find a valuable bug.

Avoid burnout

By pushing too hard when your brain is tired, the quality of your work will decrease. Rest is part of the process.

Compare with yourself, not others

Someone who got a bug today might have been a zero last week.

In Hunting 🉐

Know the app inside out

Map out the architecture, APIs, auth flow, user roles, etc.

Always test edge cases

Strange inputs, unusual usage patterns, or borderline behaviors.

Automate the boring parts

automate the web application changes or when a subdomain get http service up

Re-test old stuff after updates

Updates may create new auth bypass, XSS, or misconfig.

There are many places to fuzz in an HTTP request, but there’s one often-overlooked spot that’s actually very promising. Check out this URL:

redacted[.]com/index.php?mode=show&q=meydi

Most people focus on fuzzing parameters and paths — and yes, that’s always necessary. But one smart approach is value fuzzing, especially when changing a single value can significantly alter the response.

For example, take this:

redacted[.]com/index.php?mode=FUZZ&q=meydi

Here, fuzzing the mode parameter can lead to interesting behavior. It’s a great spot to test for hidden functionalities

توی نسخه جدید Firefox Nightly، یه تکنیک مخرب به اسم DOM Clobbering بگا رفت!

💡 قبل از این تغییر، اگه یه المنت HTML مثل

<img name="currentScript">

توی صفحه می‌ذاشتی، می‌تونست مقدار

 document.currentScript

رو خراب کنی یعنی مرورگر به جای اینکه به <noscript> واقعی اشاره کنه، اون img رو نشون می‌داد 😬

اما حالا:
دیگه نمی‌تونی با name یا id، ویژگی‌های داخلی document رو بازنویسی کنی (مثل document.currentScript, document.forms, document.location و غیره)

<img src=a name=currentScript>
<noscript>
alert(document.currentScript) 
</noscript>
