How I Approach a New Bug Bounty Target?

⚠️ Disclaimer This video is intended for educational purposes only. All demonstrations are performed against intentionally vulnerable applications or systems where I have explicit authorization to test. Do not attempt to test systems or applications without prior permission from the owner. Unauthorized access to computer systems is illegal and unethical. Always practice responsible and authorized security research. In this video, I walk through my methodology for analyzing a web application, identifying potential attack surfaces, and validating security findings. Rather than jumping straight into exploitation, I first talk about understanding the application's functionality and signals I like to look for. For this walkthrough, I'm using crAPI, an intentionally vulnerable web application built specifically for security training and education. Whether you're getting started with bug bounty hunting or looking to improve your web application testing methodology, I hope this video provides practical insights into how I approach a new target.
