Hello Hackers ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ”

Rapido Logo

I hope youโ€™re all doing well and continuing to secure our digital landscape ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ’ป

Today, I want to share how I discovered a security vulnerability in Rapido and responsibly disclosed it to their team ๐Ÿš•โšก

๐Ÿ” The Discovery

While casually exploring Rapidoโ€™s website, my curiosity as a security researcher and ethical hacker kicked in ๐Ÿค”. During my testing, I came across a subdomain and decided to perform directory brute-forcing.

During this process, I discovered a configuration file that exposed sensitive information such as:

  • ๐Ÿšจ API Keys
  • ๐Ÿ”‘ Tokens
  • ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Credentials

This was a serious case of:

  • โš ๏ธ Sensitive Information Disclosure
  • โš™๏ธ Security Misconfiguration

Since the issue is currently being fixed, I wonโ€™t disclose specific technical details or file names.

๐Ÿข Responsible Disclosure

As an ethical hacker and bug bounty hunter, I immediately reported the vulnerability responsibly to the Rapido team without exploiting the issue.

Responsible disclosure is a crucial part of ethical hacking our goal is always to protect users and strengthen systems, not misuse vulnerabilities ๐Ÿ”’

โœ… Response & Acknowledgment

After submitting the report, I was genuinely happy to receive acknowledgment from the Rapido team ๐Ÿ™Œ

In many cases especially in India ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ companies silently fix vulnerabilities, mark reports as duplicates, or sometimes donโ€™t even respond.

However, Rapido stood out. Despite not having a public bug bounty program, their team appreciated the report and is actively working on fixing the issue ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Acknowledgment

This reflects their professionalism and shows how seriously they take user data protection and digital security ๐Ÿ”

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Final Thoughts

Always follow ethical hacking principles. If you discover a vulnerability, report it responsibly and give the organization time to fix it.

Together, we can make the internet a safer place ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ”
