I Automated My Entire Bug Bounty Workflow

[0:04]Bug bounty hunting can make you thousands per month if you do it right, but most people waste 80% of their time doing manual recon that should take 5 minutes. Manually running subfinder, manually running Nmap, manually checking each subdomain, then wondering why they're not finding bugs. Let me show you how to automate literally everything so you can focus on actual hacking instead of running the same commands for 6 hours. Three things you're going to automate: subdomain discovery and monitoring, port scanning and service enumeration, screenshot and text stack identification. Chain these together and you have recon running 24/7 finding new targets while you sleep. I'm not explaining installation because you have Google and it's straightforward. Focus on the methodology, not the setup. Let's start with subdomain discovery. You're watching tutorials and they tell you run subfinder on target, get list of subdomains. Cool, then what? Run it again tomorrow manually, check if new subdomains appeared. This is stupid, you're supposed to automate monitoring. I take subfinder and instead of running it once, I make script that runs it every day. Saves results to file, compares with yesterday's results. If new subdomain appears, sends me notification. Now I know immediately when company launches a new asset. New assets means untested attack surface. Untested means bugs. But subfinder alone isn't enough. I also run a mass and asset finder and CRT.sh scraping. Each tool finds different subdomains. I chain them all together, remove duplicates. Now I have complete subdomain list. This script runs automatically every 24 hours via cron job. I wake up to new targets without doing anything. Now I have automated subdomain discovery, but what about scanning? Can't manually run Nmap on 500 subdomains. Takes forever, so I automate that too. Scanning automation. Take those subdomains my script found, feed them into another script that runs HTTPX first to check which ones are actually alive. No point scanning dead hosts. Then take alive hosts and run Nmap on them, but not full port scan on all of them, that's slow and loud. I run quick scan first, just top 1,000 ports. Takes 2 minutes per host instead of 20. Save results, if I see interesting port like 8080 or 8443, or anything unusual, then I do full port scan on that specific host. This way I'm not wasting time scanning every single port on every single host. Smart scanning, not brute for scanning. Script also runs nuclei, which checks for known vulnerabilities using templates. Maybe there's exposed Git config, maybe there's Apache version with known CVE. Nuclei finds these automatically. I get notification if it finds anything interesting. But I don't know what each subdomain actually looks like. Maybe it's an admin panel, maybe it's an API documentation, maybe it's a login page. Can't tell from port scan, need to see it, so I automate screenshots. Script takes all the live web servers and feeds them into eyewitness. Eyewitness screenshots every single one, generates HTML report with all screenshots organized neatly. Now I can visually browse hundreds of subdomains in minutes instead of manually visiting each one. Also run wappalyzer or built with API to identify text stacks. Script tells me which sites run WordPress, which run Django, which run custom frameworks. This matters because WordPress has different attacks than Django. Now I know exactly where to focus. Last step, make sure you're doing it properly. Beginners just spam tools and hope. You're supposed to understand what you're looking for. Forgotten subdomains, outdated software, dev environments left public. Automation finds these before anyone else. Automation makes you faster than the competition. That's how you win.
