💡 TIPS FOR THE WEEK
Read What Others Already Found
Look at old reports to make sure you don’t waste any time. Start where bugs were found before.
Look For Logic Mistakes Not Just Pop Up Bugs
Instead of only XSS, see if you can break how the app works (free stuff, wrong access, or skipping steps)
Follow the Rules!
Stay in scope and read carefully! One small mistake can get your report closed instantly.
Use Tools But Think For Yourself
Tools find basic stuff. Do not go mindlessly using tools. Understand what they do inside and out.
Write Clear Reports
Simple steps, proof, and why this report matters. Clear reports get paid faster, and possibly more.
