Offensive OSINT — External Red-Team Arsenal

v3.0 — Refactored 2026-05-02 from a 4,168-line monolith into a lean SKILL.md (~400 lines) plus 15 modular reference files in references/. Detail content loads on demand — Claude reads only the reference files relevant to the current task.

0. When to use / When NOT

Use this skill when:

• You need concrete probe paths, wordlists, regexes, payloads, scoring rules, or tool URLs.
• You're executing reconnaissance and need the actual technical reference (vs. methodology).
• You're building a recon automation and need specific lists to seed it.

Do NOT use this skill when:

• The user is asking for active exploitation, post-exploitation, or anything past reconnaissance.
• The user is asking for defensive / blue-team detections.
• The target's authorization isn't established — see §1.

---

1. Authorization & Legal Posture

For assets the operator owns or has written authorization to assess. Soft scope check before acting against an unverified third-party target — see methodology skill §1 for the full posture.

---

2. Confidence Levels

• TENTATIVE — plausible based on indirect evidence (snippet-only dork match, single-source asset, inferred email pattern).
• FIRM — directly observed (subdomain resolves, HEAD-confirmed bucket exists, banner returned).
• CONFIRMED — verified via independent corroboration OR direct verification (live PMAK validation, multiple sources agree, listable bucket with object retrieval).

---

3. Output Format Conventions

Findings should carry: id, module, asset_key, category, severity (info/low/medium/high/critical), confidence, title, description, evidence (url + UTC timestamp + sha256 + raw ≤ 2 KiB), references, remediation. UTC timestamps everywhere.

---

4. Source Hygiene & Citations

URL + UTC timestamp + SHA-256 + tool version + run_id, every artifact. PNG screenshots, JSONL run logs, raw HTTP captures capped at 2 KiB body.

---

5. Do NOT

• Don't paste creds/PII/session tokens into cloud LLMs.
• Don't run destructive probes outside DEEP/--aggressive.
• Don't use validated credentials for anything except read-only liveness check.
• Don't single-source attribute.
• Don't assume vendor labels are ground truth.

---

6. General OSINT (curated tool refs)

• OSINT Bookmarks — comprehensive bookmarks.
• OSINT Framework — tool/resource directory.
• IntelTechniques Tools — investigative suite.
• Bellingcat Toolkit — investigative journalism.
• CyberSudo OSINT Toolkit — OSINT websites list.
• Google Dorks — efficient Google searching.
• Distributed Denial of Secrets — leaked datasets.
• Country-Specific Resources — country-targeted OSINT.

---

How to use this skill

This skill is a lean operational index. Most concrete data (wordlists, regexes, dorks, endpoint catalogs, severity examples) lives in the references/ subfolder, organized by topic.

Workflow when this skill triggers:

1. Read this SKILL.md to anchor on principles (§0-5), scoring rubrics (§20-21), attack-path templates (§39), and the references index below.
2. For task-specific data, read only the reference file(s) you need — do NOT pull all 15. Each reference is self-contained.
3. Use the bug-bounty skill for the local toolkit at ~/security-research/bug-bounty-resources/ and osint-methodology for the planning framework.

Loading rules of thumb:

• Single-class question (e.g., "what's the regex for AWS keys?") → load secret-patterns.md only.
• Multi-class engagement (e.g., "do an external recon on target.com") → load probes-and-wordlists.md first, then add others as the engagement narrows.
• Severity / triage question → load severity-matrix.md.

20. Endpoint Interest Score — 0–100 rubric

For every classified endpoint (§22 in methodology skill), apply this rubric:

Signal	Points	Conditions
Unauth write	+40	POST/PUT/DELETE/PATCH endpoint returns 200/201/202/204 anonymously.
Open GraphQL introspection	+35	__schema query returns full type list anonymously.
Verb tampering bypass	+30	OPTIONS reveals method not documented; that method is accessible.
Reflected CORS + credentials	+25	Access-Control-Allow-Origin reflects request Origin AND Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true.
Sensitive keyword in path	+20	Path matches one of: admin, internal, debug, user, password, token, key, export, upload, backup, config, secret, private, delete, purge, wipe.
Schema leak in error	+20	Response body contains stack trace, ORM error class, framework signature (e.g., ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound, org.hibernate.exception.*, django.db.utils.IntegrityError).
API key in URL	+15	Path or query string contains api_key=, apikey=, token=, access_token=.
Wildcard CORS	+10	Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *.
Missing rate-limit headers	+10	No RateLimit-* / X-RateLimit-* headers; no Retry-After after rapid requests.

Thresholds:

Score	Severity
≥ 90	CRITICAL
70–89	HIGH
50–69	MEDIUM
25–49	LOW
< 25	INFO

For score ≥ 70, attach an attack_path_hint in evidence (see §29).

---

21. Mobile App Ownership Confidence — 0–100 rubric

Before running deep APK static analysis, score whether the discovered app actually belongs to the target. Threshold: ≥70 = accept.

Signal	Points
Package reverse-DNS matches target domain (e.g., com.acme.android ⟂ acme.com)	+40
Developer email is <anything>@<target-domain>	+25
Developer website URL is the target domain (or a confirmed sibling brand domain)	+20
App name contains a brand keyword from operator-supplied brand list	+10
App has ≥ minimum review-score threshold (default 20 reviews)	+5

Apps below threshold are tagged mobile_review_pending and shown but not analyzed. Operator can re-score with --mobile-ownership-threshold 50 for noisier collection.

---

---

39. Attack-Path Hint Patterns

When emitting a HIGH/CRITICAL API endpoint finding (score ≥ 70), include a one-sentence attack_path_hint in evidence so the operator knows where to start exploiting. Templates:

Trigger	Attack-path hint
Unauth POST / PUT / DELETE	"Unauthenticated {method} {path} — try IDOR + privilege escalation; check whether numeric IDs are sequential or guessable."
Open GraphQL introspection	"Open GraphQL introspection on {path} — enumerate mutations, look for createUser, setRole, transferFunds-shaped names; pivot to broken-auth or business-logic flaws."
Reflected CORS + creds	"Reflected CORS with credentials on {path} — host CSRF page on attacker-controlled origin; victim's browser will leak {sensitive-data-hint}."
Wildcard CORS + sensitive	"Wildcard CORS on {path} returning user-tied data without creds — exfiltrate via cross-origin fetch from any page victim visits."
Verb tampering	"Verb tampering: {hidden-method} allowed on documented-{visible-method}-only endpoint → likely missing-method-check authz bug; try {hidden-method} {path} with valid auth."
API key in URL	"API key in URL: ?{param}=... — token leaks to access logs, browser history, Referer headers, third-party CDNs. Check Wayback / Google for cached copies."
Schema leak in error	"Schema leak in error response — framework signature {framework} exposed; map to known {framework} vulns and craft targeted payloads."
Sensitive keyword	"Path contains '{keyword}' — review for direct object reference, mass-assignment, or hidden admin functionality."
Open RTDB Firebase	"Open Firebase RTDB at https://{project}.firebaseio.com/.json — read everything, then test write at /<random-key>.json with PUT to gauge ACL scope."
Listable cloud bucket	"Listable {provider} bucket {bucket} — recursive object listing + content-type analysis; look for backups, logs, customer data, AWS keys in JSON configs."
.git exposed	"Exposed .git/config on {host} — reconstruct repository with git-dumper or githacker; full source history."
.env exposed	"Exposed .env on {host} — grep for _KEY, _SECRET, _TOKEN, _PASSWORD; validate all credentials read-only via §23 validators."
/actuator/env	"Spring Boot /actuator/env exposed — dump environment variables; look for spring.datasource.password, JWT secrets, cloud creds."
/actuator/heapdump	"Spring Boot /actuator/heapdump exposed — download HPROF, run jhat or VisualVM, search for cleartext secrets in heap strings."
Open Elasticsearch	"Open Elasticsearch on {host}:9200 — /_cat/indices?v for index list; sample documents from each high-value index; test write to /test-idx/_doc to gauge ACL."
Open Redis	"Open Redis on {host}:6379 — INFO, KEYS *, sample reads; check for write access via CONFIG SET then BGSAVE to write authorized_keys."
Open MongoDB	"Open MongoDB on {host}:27017 — show dbs, show collections, sample find queries; check user collection for password hashes."
Subdomain takeover	"CNAME for {host} points to unclaimed {provider} resource → register {takeover-target} on {provider} to serve content from {host}; pivot to phishing or content injection on the trusted domain."
Open kubelet	"Open kubelet on {host}:10250 — GET /pods to list; POST /run/<ns>/<pod>/<container> for in-container exec without K8s API auth."
Open etcd	"Open etcd on {host}:2379 — etcdctl get / --prefix --keys-only for full cluster state; secrets stored under /registry/secrets/."
K8s API anonymous	"Kubernetes API on {host}:6443 with anonymous-auth — kubectl --server=https://{host}:6443 --insecure-skip-tls-verify get pods --all-namespaces."
Citrix unpatched	"Citrix NetScaler version {ver} on {host} — vulnerable to CVE-{cve} (KEV-listed); see vendor advisory; do not exploit but flag for client immediate patching."
F5 BIG-IP TMUI exposed	"F5 BIG-IP TMUI on {host} reachable; CVE-2022-1388 / CVE-2023-46747 KEV applicable; advise immediate patching to vendor-released hotfix."
VMware vCenter accessible	"vCenter at {host} accessible without VPN; CVE-2021-21972 RCE if unpatched; check version banner."
Cloud function URL unauth	"AWS Lambda Function URL at {url} accessible anonymously — review IAM auth configuration; if unauthenticated by design, audit input validation aggressively."
npm typosquat candidate	"Package name {candidate} is unregistered + similar to target's published {official} — typosquat takeover risk; advise client to defensively register."
DMARC missing/permissive	"DMARC p=none on {domain} — spoof of {anything}@{domain} deliverable to recipients; recommend enforcement to p=quarantine or p=reject after observing reports."
Live AI API key (Anthropic/OpenAI)	"Validated sk-{provider}-... key with model access — quota cost can be exfiltrated; rotate immediately + audit usage logs in provider console."
Public Slack invite link	"Slack workspace invite link discoverable via search engine — anyone can join the workspace without approval; trivially access internal channels."
Open Docker registry	"Public Docker registry at {host} — GET /v2/_catalog lists images; pull and scan layers for embedded secrets."
Telegram bot token live	"Telegram bot token validated — getUpdates reveals bot recipients (admin chats); if getMe shows bot is in channels, full message read access."
Sourcemap with sourcesContent[]	"Sourcemap on {host} includes embedded original sources — full frontend code reconstructable; grep for inline secrets and internal hostnames."

50. Changelog

• v2.1.1 (2026-04-27) — battle-test gap fixes from real-engagement smoke run. Added: §15.0.1 HudsonRock Cavalier direct-API recipe (curl + PowerShell, full JSON shape, free-tier redaction caveats, rate-limit guidance). §15.2 expanded with legacy-mail-decommissioned escalation pattern (NXDOMAIN legacy mail + breach corpus + autodiscover-confirmed cloud migration → CRITICAL SSO_EXPOSURE). §16.14 expanded with DMARC reporting-vendor table (Kratikal kdmarc / dmarcian / Valimail / Agari / EasyDMARC / DMARC Analyzer / Postmark) + full Windows/PowerShell parallel for the entire email security audit + caveat that PS 5.1 Resolve-DnsName -Type CAA errors (use PS 7+ or nslookup -type=CAA). §16.22 expanded TXT verification token catalog with 17 new tokens (zscaler-verification, cloudflare-verify, autosect, cisco-site-verification, mscid, _amazonses, salesforce-domain-verification, workday/shopify/klaviyo/mailchimp/hubspot/zendesk/freshworks/intercom/loom/miro/gitlab) + new "Autodiscover-as-confirmation" pattern for M365 detection when MX is wrapped by Mimecast/Proofpoint/Barracuda. §22.1 added passive Autodiscover IP correlation pattern with Microsoft Exchange Online IP ranges. §22.8 added clarification: SharePoint HEAD HTTP 200 = tenant exists, NOT anonymous access granted (operators commonly misread). New §16.23 legacy-app pivot block (when Wayback *.js returns empty for brochure-ware sites, pivot to .asp/.php/.jsp/.cfm/.aspx/.json/.xml/.yml/.ini/.conf — with full broad-sweep one-liner). New §16.24 Common-Prefix Subdomain Sweep — formalized active prefix-probe technique with 100+ ordered prefix list, PowerShell + bash + puredns recipes, and real-engagement validation note (passive enum misses 20-40% of high-value subdomains; always pair with active prefix probe). §27.0.1 added crt.sh fallback chain (Censys, CertSpotter, Calidog, Subfinder, OTX, ThreatMiner, URLScan, Anubis-DB) with PowerShell wrapper that retries crt.sh 3× then falls back to Subfinder. §28.1 added Bulk IP→ASN recipes (Cymru bulk WHOIS, RIPEstat, bgp.tools, IPinfo Lite) + caveat that bgpview.io API has aggressive rate limits unsuitable for bulk. §40 severity matrix gained 8 rows: vendor procurement portal exposed + breach corpus hits (HIGH), PII-collection portal over plain HTTP (HIGH), decommissioned legacy mail + breach + cloud migration (CRITICAL), public-facing intranet without VPN (MEDIUM), staging/preprod publicly resolvable (MEDIUM), vpn. resolves but vendor unknown (INFO escalating to HIGH-CRITICAL on KEV match), DMARC RUA → third-party vendor (INFO). §49 self-test expanded from 30 → 40 prompts targeting all new content.

Renumbered Runnable Helper → §48, Self-Test → §49 (refreshed for v2.1), Changelog → §50.
• v2.0 (2026-04-27) — major rewrite for external red-team posture. Added: pre-built wordlists (§16), 29-pattern secret catalog (§17), 50+ dork corpus (§18), GitHub code-search dorks (§19), endpoint interest score (§20), mobile ownership confidence (§21), identity-fabric concrete endpoints (§22), read-only secret validators (§23), Postman workspace search (§24), Stack Exchange sweep (§25), public SaaS dorks (§26), subdomain-source stack (§27), domain-level breach severity (§15.1), L2 explorer table (§30.2), USCC + ICP workflow (§14.2), cross-module sidecar coordination (§36), attack-path hint patterns (§39), severity decision matrix (§40), runnable secret-scan helper (§41). Strengthened: confidence levels (§2), output format (§3), do-not rules (§5). Original tool tables retained and lightly reorganized.

Related Skills & Chains

• web2-recon — When the arsenal needs to be executed against a live host set. Workflow primitive: this skill provides the probe paths and wordlists; web2-recon runs the actual subfinder → dnsx → httpx → katana pipeline that consumes them.
• osint-methodology — When this skill's concrete probes need a planning framework. Workflow primitive: osint-methodology is the planning skeleton (5-stage pipeline, asset graph, findings rubric); this skill is the operational arsenal that fills each stage with curl one-liners and regexes.
• hunt-subdomain — When this skill's subdomain enumeration finds stale CNAMEs. Workflow primitive: subdomains discovered via §27 / references/recon-stack.md get auto-routed to hunt-subdomain for takeover validation.
• hunt-cloud-misconfig — When this skill's cloud-bucket enum surfaces listable buckets / Firebase / actuator endpoints. Workflow primitive: §39 attack-path hints (listable bucket, /actuator/env, open Elasticsearch) hand off to hunt-cloud-misconfig for exploitation.
• m365-entra-attack / okta-attack — When identity-fabric fingerprinting finds Entra/Okta. Workflow primitive: references/identity-fabric.md fingerprints the IdP; matched platform skill (loaded by hunt-dispatch) takes over for active enumeration.
