Hunt Client-Side Path Traversal vulnerabilities where attacker-controlled input is concatenated into the path of a fetch() or XHR request, enabling redirection and chaining to XSS or data exfiltration.

Discover and exploit XML External Entity injection vulnerabilities to read server files, perform SSRF, and exfiltrate data during authorized penetration tests.

OS command injection occurs when user input is passed unsanitized to a system shell via dangerous APIs: Java `Runtime.exec()`, Python `os.system/subprocess`, PHP `system/shell_exec/exec/proc_open`, C `system/exec`. Detect via pipe `|`, semicolon `;`, `&&`, `||`, backtick, `$()` operators, and time-delay payloads (`sleep 5`). Tools: Commix, Burp Suite, OWASP WebGoat.

Stored XSS (persistent XSS) occurs when attacker-supplied input is saved server-side and later rendered unencoded to other users. Common injection points include profile fields, comments, forum posts, file upload filenames, and application logs. Detect via PHP `$_GET/$_POST/$_REQUEST/$_FILES`, ASP `Request.Form`, JSP `request.getParameter`, and BeEF hook injection. Tools: Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, BeEF, PHP Charset Encoder, Hackvertor.

Tests web applications for Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities by injecting JavaScript payloads into reflected, stored, and DOM-based contexts to demonstrate client-side code execution, session hijacking, and user impersonation.

Crafts and injects custom network packets using Scapy, hping3, and Nemesis during authorized security assessments to test firewall rules, IDS detection, protocol handling, and network stack resilience against malformed and spoofed traffic.

Detect and exploit JavaScript prototype pollution vulnerabilities on both client-side and server-side applications to achieve XSS, RCE, and authentication bypass through property injection.

Detect and exploit SQL injection vulnerabilities using sqlmap to extract database contents during authorized penetration tests.

Detect and exploit XML External Entity (XXE) injection vulnerabilities in XML parsers, including file disclosure, SSRF, and blind out-of-band exfiltration.

Detect and defend against prompt injection hidden in documents, web pages, and images consumed by an agent.

Performs a static-analysis penetration test to find exploitable vulnerabilities, providing proof-of-concept payloads and fixes. Covers injection, XSS, authentication bypass, authorization flaws, path traversal, command injection, CSRF, SSRF, hardcoded secrets, and insecure deserialization, with a full attack surface.

Enumerate SMB, WinRM, LDAP, and MSSQL services, validate credentials, spray passwords, and execute commands on remote hosts using NetExec during authorized penetration tests.

Execute HTTP Parameter Pollution attacks to bypass input validation, WAF rules, and security controls by injecting duplicate parameters that are processed differently by front-end and back-end systems.

Guides authorized Active Directory security research covering Kerberos attacks, AD CS vulnerabilities, BloodHound path analysis, NTLM relay, and domain privilege escalation techniques.

Deploy XM Cyber's continuous exposure management platform to map attack paths, identify choke points, and prioritize the 2% of exposures that threaten critical assets.

Bypass Web Application Firewall protections using encoding techniques, HTTP method manipulation, parameter pollution, and payload obfuscation to deliver SQL injection, XSS, and other attack payloads past WAF detection rules.

Use to design or audit the executive escalation path for a major account — intake, ownership, communication cadence and follow-through — so escalations are resolved rather than merely attended. Trigger for "design our escalation process for key accounts", "an executive escalation went badly", "customer went to our CEO", red account war rooms, or escalations that get attention and then quietly stall.

Exploit path traversal and local/remote file inclusion (LFI/RFI) via URL parameters, cookies, and hidden fields using ../ sequences, URL encoding (%2e%2e%2f), double encoding (%252e%252e%255c), Unicode bypasses (..%c0%af), and Windows UNC paths. PHP include/require with $_GET/$_POST/$_COOKIE pattern. Target /etc/passwd, boot.ini, web.config. Tools: DotDotPwn, WFuzz, Burp Suite, ZAP.

Deep web exploitation beyond initial scanning. Covers SQLi (blind, OOB, second-order), NoSQL injection (MongoDB, operator bypass), GraphQL injection (introspection, batching, mutation abuse), XSS (reflected/stored/DOM with full source-sink analysis), SSTI (Jinja2/Twig/Freemarker/ERB engine identification and RCE), SSRF chains, file upload bypass (polyglot creation), XXE (blind, DOCX/SVG injection, Content-Type switching), deserialization (Java/PHP/Python/.NET), command injection, path traversal (LFI wrapper bypasses), race conditions, CSRF, JWT attacks (none/key confusion/kid injection), HTTP request smuggling (CL.TE/TE.CL/H2), CRLF injection, open redirect bypass chains, CORS exploitation, web cache deception/poisoning, OAuth misconfiguration, prototype pollution, session management, and business logic flaws. Uses sqlmap (advanced modes), commix, xsser, wapiti, davtest, and manual http(action="request", ...) payloads. Every technique includes actual payloads, commands, and code snippets for immediate use. Ch

Collect Active Directory data with SharpHound and Entra ID data with AzureHound, ingest into BloodHound Community Edition, and analyze on-prem, cloud, and hybrid attack paths with built-in queries and custom Cypher.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "follow red team methodology", "perform bug bounty hunting", "automate reconnaissance", "hunt for XSS vulnerabilities", "enumerate subdomains", or needs security researcher techniques and tool configurations from top bug bounty hunters.
