Sector Recon Methodology Skill

Methodology for selecting non-regulated industry sectors with the highest WordPress vulnerability rates, compiling company domain lists, and running batch reconnaissance within authorized engagements. Distilled from surveying 600+ US company domains across 28 sectors under bug bounty and authorized testing programs.

When to Use

Planning a new recon campaign and need to choose sectors.
Expanding from tested sectors into new ones.
Building target lists from sector keywords via crt.sh.
After recon-playbook Phase 0 — this skill provides the sector intelligence.
Comparing your findings against baseline vulnerability rates per sector.

Prerequisites

curl, jq, httpx, and subfinder.
Understanding of the US regulatory landscape (HIPAA, GLBA, PCI-DSS) — regulated sectors have near-zero vulnerability rates.
An execution environment with explicit concurrency and rate limits.

How to Run

# Generate targets for a sector
SECTOR="landscaping"
curl --max-time 30 --connect-timeout 10 -sk "https://crt.sh/?q=%25.${SECTOR}%25&output=json" | jq -r '.[].name_value' | \
  sed 's/\*\.//g' | sed 's/^www\.//' | sort -u > ${SECTOR}_targets.txt

Script: scripts/parallel_sector_probe.py — OPSEC-controlled batch probe with random delays, generates per-domain findings files. Run python3 scripts/parallel_sector_probe.py targets.txt output_dir/ for a full WP/CORS/XMLRPC/leak scan.

Quick Reference

Tier	Sectors	Typical WP Rate	Best Pattern	Notes
1	Law, Landscaping, Pools, Pest, Roofing, Dental, Gyms, Real Estate, HVAC, Property, Auto Repair, Photography	30-50%	CORS + WP users	Minimal WAF, GoDaddy/Bluehost
2	Cleaning, Moving, Accounting, Septic, Window, Car Wash, Bakery, Locksmith, Solar, Chimney, Fire, Pet Grooming

Sector	Vuln Rate	Top Pattern	WordPress Rate	WAF Protection	Best Targets
Law Firms	25%	P-06 (CORS auth)	~30%	Minimal	Solo/small firm, GoDaddy-hosted
Landscaping	20%	WP-01 (user enum)	~50%	Minimal	Local SMB, franchise model
Pool Services	20%	WP-01 (user enum)	~45%	Minimal	Summer-seasonal businesses
Pest Control	20%	P-02 (CORS)	~40%	Minimal	Franchise-heavy
Roofing	15%	WP-01, P-17	~45%	Minimal	Local contractors
Dental Clinics	15%	WP-01 (user enum)	~35%	Some	Single-dentist practices
Gyms/Fitness	15%	WP-01 (user enum)	~40%	Some	CrossFit, yoga, martial arts
Real Estate	15%	P-02 (CORS)	~40%	Some	Independent brokerages
HVAC/Plumbing	14%	WP-01, P-02	~35%	Some	Franchise-heavy, staging common
Property Management	15%	P-02 (CORS)	~30%	Some	PII-heavy sector
Photography	10%	WP-01 (user enum)	~50%	Some	Portfolio sites, often WP
Funeral Homes	10%	WP-01 (user enum)	~33%	Minimal	WordPress + user enum found on 2 targets (funeral.example.com, memorial.example.com)
Senior Living	17%	P-02 (CORS) + XMLRPC	~33%	Cloudflare	senior-living.example.com (80 XMLRPC methods + CORS + multicall), senior-living2.example.com (CORS) — 2/12 tested = CRITICAL findings

Sector	Vuln Rate	Notes
Cleaning Services	13%	Carpet, window, mold remediation
Moving Companies	6%	Fewer WP, more SaaS platforms
Accounting/CPA	5%	Some regulated, some not — financial data at risk
Septic Services	25% source leaks	Massive source leak rate (.env, .git, wp-config)
Window Cleaning	25% CORS	Small operations, DIY WP
Car Washes	20% source leaks	Dockerfile, swagger, actuator endpoints common
Bakeries	18% CORS wildcard	28 leaked files on one target
Locksmiths	20% WP users + XMLRPC	38 subdomains on one target
Solar Installers	Minimal	Major brands use enterprise platforms
Chimney Sweeps	~10% CORS + XMLRPC	Small family businesses, WP common
Fire Restoration	~10%	Franchise model (Servpro, Belfor)
Pet Grooming	20% WP users	Dogtopia, Camp Bow Wow — WP detected

Sector	Vuln Rate	Why
Car Dealerships	0%	Enterprise CDK/Dealertrack platforms, not WordPress
Travel Agencies	0%	SaaS (Sabre, Amadeus), not self-hosted
Banks/Credit Unions	0%	GLBA regulated, mandatory security
Major Healthcare	0%	HIPAA regulated, HITRUST certified
Home Services	0%	Angi/Thumbtack platforms, not self-hosted

- [Common third-party integrations]
- [Typical infrastructure patterns]
- [PII/regulated data vectors]

## Sector-Specific Bypasses
