The Challenge

Platforms like HackerOne and Bugcrowd are now packed with security researchers. This makes the chances of getting informative, N/A, or duplicate reports much higher. So, whenever you find a valid bug, it becomes even more valuable! 💎

Recently, I found several valid bugs, and I was thrilled about it. However, due to Bugcrowd's policies, I can't disclose the full details of the bug. I've already been warned before, so I need to be cautious.

But I can still share a tip to help you in your bug hunting! 🕵️‍♂️

💡 Bug Hunting Tip

If a website uses WordPress in the backend, you can use this wordlist:

This can help you discover some interesting P2–P4 bugs! 🔍🐞
