Ethical Hacking/Pentesting & Bug Bounty Hunting v2 2025 (Udemy.com)

Welcome to Ethical Hacking / Penetration Testing and Bug Bounty Hunting Course v2.0 . This course covers web application attacks and how to earn bug bounties. There is no prerequisite of prior hacking knowledge and you will be able to perform web attacks and hunt bugs on live websites and secure them.

This course is not like other hacking or penetration testing course with outdated vulnerabilities and only lab attacks. This contains maximum live websites to make you comfortable with the Live Hunting Environment.

This course will start from basic principles of each vulnerability and How to attack them using multiple bypass techniques, In addition to exploitation, you will also learn how to fix them.

This course is highly practical and is made on Live websites to give you the exact environment when you start your penetrating testing or bug hunting journey.

We will start from the basics of each vulnerability and move ahead to the advance level of exploitation and multiple edge case scenarios on live websites.

This course is divided into a number of sections, each section covers how to hunt, exploit and mitigate a vulnerability in an ethical manner.

After identification of a vulnerability, we will exploit to leverage the maximum severity out of it. We will also learn how to fix vulnerabilities which are commonly found on the websites on the internet.

In this course, you will also learn How can you start your journey on many famous bug hunting platforms like Bugcrowd, Hackerone, Synack, Private RVDP, Intigriti, NCIIPC Govt of India and Open Bug Bounty.

Along with this, you will be able to hunt and report vulnerabilities to NCIIPC Government of India, also to private companies and to their responsible disclosure programs.

You will also learn Advance techniques to bypass filters and the developers logic for each kind of vulnerability. I have also shared personal tips and tricks for each attacks where you can trick the application and find bugs quickly.

This course also includes the Breakdown of all Hackerone Reports which are found and submitted by other hackers for better understanding as we will cover each type of technique in the course.

This course also includes important interview questions and answers which will be helpful in any penetration testing job interview.

Here's a more detailed breakdown of the course content:

In all the sections we will start the fundamental principle of How the attack works, Exploitation and How to defend from those attacks.

In Lab Setup, We will cover what is Burpsuite Proxy and Linux, also we will learn how to setup both for further pentesting and hunting.

1. In Subdomain Takeovers, we will cover all different types of cloud based scenarios  like AWS, Github, Shopify, Tumblr and many more. In addition, we will learn Advance fingerprints and our newly made Can I take over all XYZ templates.

We will see all the types of Subdomain takeovers attacks on live websites which will give you a better understanding of the live environment when you will start your bug hunting journey.

This course also includes a breakdown of all the Hackerone reports submitted by other hackers for Subdomain Takeovers type of vulnerability wherein we will see and practice all types of attacks in our course.

In the end, we will also cover mitigations to secure a website and prevent these types of attacks.

In the end, I have added Interview Questions and answers which be helpful for you when Subdomain Takeovers questions are asked in any job or internship.

2. In File Inclusion , we will cover all diff types of ways to attacks Linux and Windows based systems. We will cover Local and Remote File Inclusion Attacks.

We will see all the types of File inclusion bypass on live websites which will give you a better understanding of the live environment when you will start your bug hunting journey.

We will also cover different ways to perform File Inclusion Exploitation using different techniques. We will also leverage our file inclusion to Remote Code Execution on live targets.

This course also includes a breakdown of all the Hackerone reports submitted by other hackers for File Inclusion type of vulnerability wherein we will see and practice all types of attacks in our course.

In the end, we will also cover mitigations to secure a website and prevent these types of attacks.

I have added Interview Questions and answers which be helpful for you when File Inclusion questions are asked in any job or internship.

3. In Server Side Request Forgery SSRF Attacks, we will check this vulnerability for different injection points, In addition, we will learn how to find these types of vulnerabilities in multiple targets.

We will see all the types of SSRF attacks on live websites which will give you a better understanding of the live environment when you will start your bug hunting journey.

We will also cover different ways to perform SSRF Attacks Exploitation using multiple types by bypass tricks on targets.

We will also learn how to scan the internal ports of the target vulnerable running server.

We will also see the exploitation and download of the metadeta of the AWS Instances using SSRF which generally other researchers miss out.

This course also includes a breakdown of all the Hackerone reports submitted by other hackers for SSRF Attacks type of vulnerability wherein we will see and practice all types of attacks in our course.

In the end, we will also cover mitigations to secure a website and prevent these types of attacks.

4. In Remote Code Execution (RCE) Attacks, we will check this vulnerability for different injection points, In addition, we will learn how to find these types of vulnerabilities can lead to execution of malicious code on the target server.

We will also cover different ways to perform code injection attacks on multiple targets to make you comfortable with different examples and test cases.
