Welcome to the Bug Hunting Checklist for Web App repository! This checklist is a comprehensive guide for conducting security assessments on web applications to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities. It covers various aspects of web application security, including reconnaissance, authentication, authorization, data validation, and more.
As security threats to web applications continue to evolve, it's crucial to have a systematic approach to identify and address potential vulnerabilities. This checklist serves as a valuable resource for security professionals, bug bounty hunters, and developers who want to ensure the security of web applications.
The checklist is organized into several sections, each focusing on a specific aspect of web application security. Here are some of the key sections covered in this checklist:
- Reconnaissance: Gathering information about the target web application.
- Single Domain Scanning: Scanning a single domain for vulnerabilities.
- Manual Checking: Manual assessment and exploration of the application.
- Configuration Management: Checking various configurations for security issues.
- Secure Transmission: Ensuring secure data transmission.
- Authentication: Testing various aspects of user authentication.
- OAuth Test Cases: Testing OAuth-based authentication and authorization.
- Session Management: Assessing how sessions are managed.
- Authorization: Checking for proper access control.
- Data Validation: Testing for various forms of data validation vulnerabilities.
- Denial of Service: Assessing vulnerability to DoS attacks.
- Business Logic: Testing for business logic issues.
- Cryptography: Checking for cryptographic vulnerabilities.
- Risky Functionality - File Uploads: Assessing file upload functionality.
- Risky Functionality - Card Payment: Assessing payment-related functionality.
- HTML 5: Testing HTML 5 features.
