Elevate Your Earnings: Bug Bounty Xss Write-up For $$$$$ Success – Hi all! This is Haroon Hamid and I here to share our recent findings on the Synack Red team about DOM-based XSS. In this blog post, I will discuss the bug bounty report of this discovery.
Let’s start! Our main focus is on the main domain, which is https://redacted.com, so we don’t want to count any subdomains and juicy and fortunately we found two interesting javascript files, where we found the following javascript. Duties:

In the code above, when an unauthorized user clicks Save Zone, it will send an Ajax request (an Ajax request is an HTTP request that uses the XMLHttpRequest object to exchange data asynchronously with the web server. This allows dynamic web page updates without requiring On a full page load this code will store the selected regionId (regionId is a parameter passed to a function) in a cookie, then reload the page (or redirect to the specified URL). It then returns the user’s path (UAPathway) with the “start” value. Sets a cookie for
Xss Vs Csrf: Differences & Similarities Of The Attacks
The above code is vulnerable to DOM-based XSS. If an attacker manages to inject malicious JavaScript into the “url” parameter, the resulting code will be executed on the page. The code uses the “getParameterByNam”e function to retrieve the value of the “url” parameter, which is used in the “window.open” function.
In this JavaScript code, the “getParameterByName()” function, which is used to retrieve parameters from a URL, allows an attacker to manipulate the “url” parameter to run malicious code on a website.
The following is an example payload that can be used to execute JavaScript commands and access DOM elements, such as document.domain and document.cookie:
After understanding the javascript code you will clearly see that it will take user input from the ‘url’ parameter and execute it in DOM aka sync.
Hacking Hackazon. Finding And Exploiting Vulnerabilities…
So, we sent Synack’s Quality Rule Project Best Quality Report to the Synack Red Team and were awarded 3/3 stars and $$$.
How great! “Sometimes hackers are people who spend more time than others expect” It’s always good to see things that seem pointless.
We are open to working with individual pentesting projects. If you have such a project, DM one of us. Thank you!

Hacktrick: SVG Image Stored XSS via Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is a type of security vulnerability that occurs when an attacker manages to inject his code into the web… 61 bug bounty programs analyzed over two years published by MIT. Their summary highlights some elements that they and their colleagues in the industry have observed:
Cross Site Scripting: The Real WordPress Supervillain
To Western security researchers, that salary looks more like a monthly salary than an annual salary. Since top hackers work full time, it is important that they come from a low cost of living area.
This information raises the question: Is it worth running a bug bounty program and outsourcing some security work to hackers overseas?
Many organizations do not allow people from abroad to access their data in sensitive areas such as politics and healthcare. The main reason for this policy is access to legal remedies. For example, if a person decides to post a database on the open Internet, they can be sued for civil or even criminal charges in the United States.
If the hacker-for-hire is based in a country that does not have a Mutual Legal Assistance Agreement (MLAT) with the United States, there is little chance that they are unethical. Legal action is still possible if the individual is in an MLAT country, but effectiveness decreases as costs increase.
Cross Site Scripting (xss)
Many organizations provide isolated examples of bug bounty hackers using. But if the discovered vulnerability can be used in production, trust those hackers not to reveal it until you fix it.
Companies like Zerodium buy zero vulnerabilities for up to two million dollars. Therefore, you believe that the hacker needs relatively little money against the potential loss.
It is worth noting that some bug bounty platforms offer services that only use verified hackers in the US However, this option often increases the cost of the bug bounty program much more than the cost of a comparable pentest.
During the last SOC2 audit, I informed the auditor that the company has an active bug bounty program. They explained that although the bug bounty program is positive and will be recorded in reports, it does not directly address demand. This is because bug bounty programs do not follow a comprehensive pentest method to test all API endpoints; Usually, it’s just that different hackers use specific techniques. Fortunately, the company conducted a traditional pentest and continues to do so annually to comply.
Part 1: A Pragmatic Guide To Building Your Bug Bounty Program
Individual bug bounty programs vary widely in terms of whether vulnerabilities are limited, the number of vulnerability reports received, and the amount offered/paid for grants. Due to the uneven landscape, it is difficult for auditors to assess the effectiveness of bug bounty programs as a security control.
Currently, compliance standards such as CSA STAR, ISO27001, HIPAA and SOC2 have no clear reference to bug bounty programs.
So while bug bounty programs certainly help with application security in the real world, they currently don’t help much with compliance.
In general, I have found that the cost of licensing and paying bounties for bug bounty programs is more expensive than traditional penetration testing.
Lockbit’s Bounty: Consequences Matter
The reason is that the platform tends to charge multiple license fees, which itself competes with the cost of a single penetration test. From there, each vulnerability discovered has a price tag associated with its severity. It’s like paying for penetration testing one item at a time.
In addition to upfront costs, there are hidden costs for internal staff time. Vulnerability reports are typically confirmed 5-20% of the time; This means there are many tests that look for vulnerabilities that don’t really exist. Unlike a pentest that takes place over a period of time, this creates a problem that requires confirmation to commit engineer time throughout the year. You need to budget these costs and the actual availability of your developers, if these programs work for your company.
If there’s one area where bug bounty programs excel and provide a return on investment, it’s finding vulnerabilities that could stop a true data breach. Hackers looking for bounties try some of the tricks you’d expect real hackers to do. They often discover vulnerabilities that aren’t visible in pentests or code checks.
If your web application is open to the public, some hackers have already tried to find vulnerabilities. Having a bug bounty program gives them the opportunity to monetize your bad data on board instead of trying to find ways to monetize it.

If the report is tested and improved effectively, the grant program must help improve the security of the application continuously.
A bug bounty program should be considered a feather in the cap of your computer security program. Properly managed, they help you fix vulnerabilities before malicious hackers find them. However, despite being marketed to the contrary, they will not solve compliance problems and should not replace penetration testing.
