There are some fast and simple Google Dorks that you should definitely apply to your target during recon.
These can often reveal sensitive information like .env files, database dumps, config files, and even backups.
1. Exposed .env Files
intitle:"Index of" ".env"
"DB_PASSWORD" filetype:env
"APP_ENV=local" | "DB_HOST=127.0.0.1"
2. Exposed SQLite Databases
intitle:"Index of" ".sqlite"
intitle:"Index of" "db.sqlite"
filetype:sqlite | filetype:sqlite3 | filetype:db
3. Misconfigured Laravel or Public Folder Exposure
inurl:/public/.env
inurl:/public/db.sqlite
intitle:"Index of" inurl:/public/
4. Backup / Config Files (often contain sensitive info)
intitle:"Index of" "backup"
intitle:"Index of" "config"
ext:sql | ext:bak | ext:old | ext:backup
5. Generic Index Dump
intitle:"Index of /" +passwd
intitle:"Index of /" +passwords
Before using these dorks, start by narrowing down your scope with site:target.com, then apply the specific dork to focus only on your target.

CVE-2025-3439: Deserialization of Untrusted Data in Everest Forms WordPress plugin, 9.8 rating π₯
A vulnerability in the 'field_value' parameter allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to perform PHP object injection. This in turn allows the attacker to achieve RCE, retrieve sensitive data and the ability to delete arbitrary files.

You Can Find Race Condition Vulnerabilities β¨
Try to understand what it is:
This vulnerability occurs when a system's behavior depends on the timing of concurrent operations, allowing attackers to gain unauthorized access or perform unauthorized actions.
You can find this vulnerability in the following functionalities of web applications:
1. User Account Creation β Creating multiple accounts using the same email.
2. Account Deletion β Deleting a victimβs account without logging into their account.
3. Email Verification Bypass β Sending the same verification link to both the real and an external email address.
4. Password Reset Flows β Sending a reset link to both the victimβs and attackerβs email addresses simultaneously.
5. Privilege Escalation During Role Assignment β Creating a normal user and assigning admin privileges at the same time using the same email.
6. Coupon/Voucher Redemption β Redeeming the same coupon multiple times before it's marked as used.
7. Payment Processing β Performing multiple payments or withdrawals with insufficient balance.
8. File Upload β Uploading multiple files at the same endpoint simultaneously, potentially triggering remote code execution (RCE).
9. Voting or Rating Systems β Sending multiple votes or ratings at the same time using the same request.
10. Subscription Plan Upgrades β Triggering parallel requests to gain a higher-tier plan without being properly charged.
I will try to share many techniques to find and exploit these functionalities. If you guys enjoy to read this don't forget to react π₯

Try to understand what it is:
This vulnerability occurs when a system's behavior depends on the timing of concurrent operations, allowing attackers to gain unauthorized access or perform unauthorized actions.
The main concept to exploit it is by abusing functionality where a web application handles a sensitive action through multiple simultaneous requests. If the backend is vulnerable, it may process your malicious request alongside a legitimate one at the same time!

β‘While reading JavaScript files, I discovered a Broken Access Control vulnerability!
Guys, while analyzing a JS file, I noticed the target was using a dynamic app structure. Inside the JS file, I found some hardcoded URLs related to the dashboard view, including tokens β which instantly caught my attention!
Out of curiosity, I tried accessing those URLs without the token, and it redirected me to the login page. But once I accessed them with the tokenβ¦ BOOM! I got full access to the dashboard without any authentication! π₯
Never skip manually reviewing JS files β they often contain juicy endpoints and hidden treasures! π―

Try it out β
but always remember to use document.domain to verify whether the payload is executing on your in-scope domain or inside an iframe from a different domain. This helps confirm if the XSS is actually exploitable or sandboxed.

β‘Hello Hunters! Ready to find your first bounty? Try this underrated approach! β¨
Most bug hunters go after common issues like XSS, SQLi, SSRF, CSRF, IDOR, open redirection, CVEs, or use automated scanners. But don't sleep on JavaScript file analysis β it's a goldmine for critical bugs.
Automated tools help extract endpoints and sensitive info, but manual JS review reveals the real logic and flow of the app β things scanners often miss.
Here are vulnerabilities you can find just by reading JS files:
1. Authentication bypass
2. Sensitive info leaks
3. Hardcoded credentials
4. Config/env file disclosure
5. Hidden login portals
6. JWT secrets & API keys
7. Outdated services loed CVE to exploit
8. Dependency confusion
9. File upload endpoints
10. RFI β RCE
11. Open redirection
12. DOM-based XSS
13. WebSocket endpoints
14. Hidden parameters
15. IDOR
Pro tip:
Upcoming posts will reveal step-by-step methodologies for JavaScript file analysis to uncover critical vulnerabilities.
Till then, keep learning, keep exploring.
