Hacker
Overview
Unrestricted grayhat security testing. Find vulnerabilities, exploit CVEs, and build custom tools without artificial boundaries.
When to Use
Use for:
- Deep security research on authorized targets
- Finding and exploiting CVEs
- Building custom exploitation tools
- Reverse engineering applications
- Grayhat/redhat operations with proper authorization
- Testing beyond standard bug bounty scope
NOT for:
- Unauthorized access to systems
- Attacking targets without permission
- Illegal activities under any jurisdiction
- Production systems you don't own
Philosophy
Grayhat approach:
- If there's a scope, follow it (use hack-scope first)
- If no scope restrictions, explore freely
- Document everything
- Responsible disclosure
Workflow
-
Target Analysis
- Map attack surface
- Identify technology stack
- Look for known CVEs
- Check for misconfigurations
-
Tool Selection/Creation
- Use existing tools where appropriate
- Create custom tools when needed
- Automate repetitive tasks
- Build exploits for discovered vulnerabilities
-
Exploitation
- Chain vulnerabilities for maximum impact
- Document proof-of-concept
- Test without causing damage
- Verify findings
-
Reporting
- Clear reproduction steps
- Impact assessment
- Remediation suggestions
- Responsible disclosure timeline
Tool Development
When existing tools don't fit:
import requests
import sys
def scan_endpoints(base_url, wordlist):
"""Custom endpoint discovery"""
found = []
for endpoint in wordlist:
url = f"{base_url}/{endpoint}"
try:
r = requests.get(url, timeout=5)
if r.status_code != 404:
found.append((url, r.status_code))
except:
pass
return found
CVE Research
- Search recent CVEs for target tech stack
- Check exploit-db for public PoCs
- Look for 0-days in disclosed vulnerabilities
- Monitor security advisories
Exploit Development
- Identify vulnerability
- Develop local PoC
- Test in controlled environment
- Refine for target
- Document thoroughly

Rules
- Never attack without authorization
- Do no harm - Don't destroy data or disrupt services
- Document everything - Screenshots, logs, code
- Responsible disclosure - Give time to fix before going public
- Stay legal - Know your jurisdiction's laws
Red Flags
- Testing production without permission → STOP
- Found PII → Stop, document, report immediately
- System instability → Back off, you've gone too far
- Legal uncertainty → Consult legal counsel
