Description:

In this live bug hunting demonstration, participants were given the opportunity to observe and learn from an experienced bug hunter during real-time bug hunting session. The purpose of the demonstration was to provide practical insights into the bug hunting process and showcase the methodologies and techniques used to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in software systems.

The bug hunting demonstration started with an overview of the bug hunting process, including the importance of reconnaissance, and manual testing. The trainer emphasized the need for a systematic and thorough approach to identify potential security flaws.

The demonstration focused on web application bug hunting, as web applications are a common target for attackers due to their accessibility and potential vulnerabilities. The bug hunter utilized a combination of manual testing and automated tools to scan the target web application for vulnerabilities.

Trainer demonstrated the usage of various tools, including web vulnerability scanners, proxy tools, and browser extensions and emphasized the need to clearly and effectively communicate the discovered vulnerabilities, providing detailed information on the steps to reproduce and mitigate the issues.

The demonstration concluded with a discussion on responsible disclosure and the importance of ethical bug hunting. The bug hunter emphasized the need to report vulnerabilities to the software developers and wait for a fix before disclosing the issue publicly.
