Conduct API recon to identify endpoints, methods, and parameters, then exploit an API endpoint using documentation with Burp Suite tools to delete a user.
Master API recon with Burp Suite by identifying endpoints, testing HTTP methods, content types, and authentication, and exploiting an unused API endpoint in a hands-on lab.
Learn training data poisoning and indirect prompt injection that leak sensitive data, and apply zero-trust or low-privilege models to protect publicly accessible APIs.
Understand csrf tokens and defenses like same-site cookies and referrer validation, then see how token validation depending on request method can be bypassed by switching from post to get.
Discover how CSRF protection that relies on token presence can fail, as removing the token bypasses validation, shown through a lab with an exploit server.
Learn how a CSRF token not tied to a user session enables cross-account attacks, revealing a lab vulnerability where tokens are not validated against accounts.
Explore a csrf vulnerability where the csrf token ties to a non-session cookie across frameworks. See how cookie setting and subdomain tricks enable token manipulation in an attack.
Learn how CSRF tokens duplicated in cookies enable double-submit CSRF attacks by injecting forged cookies and matching tokens, with hands-on lab exploitation for bug bounty testing.
Exploit cross-site WebSocket hijacking via vulnerable sibling domains to exfiltrate chat history and login credentials. Leverage Burp Collaborator payloads and an exploit server to deliver the attack and reveal credentials.
Learn how referer header validation impacts CSRF defenses and how attackers bypass referrer-based protections by manipulating the referrer header, including no-referrer strategies, in the lab.
Explore how frame busting scripts defend against clickjacking, and how labs simulate bypass attempts to expose frame-based vulnerabilities, including iframe handling and browser protection.
Learn how to prevent a clickjacking attack using server-side protections like x-frame-options and CSP, including frame-ancestors self and same origin directives.
Discover how to locate, test, and exploit GraphQL endpoints with Burp Suite, using universal queries, introspection, and endpoint discovery to access private posts in labs.
Explore bypassing GraphQL rate limits using aliases to perform multiple login attempts in one request, and leverage Burp Suite to test brute force protections in a lab.
Analyze insecure cross-origin resource sharing configurations, understand the same-origin policy, and practice exploiting CRS in a lab to retrieve the administrator's API key.
Explore cors vulnerabilities, including insecure trusted protocols, origin whitelisting pitfalls, and how null origins and subdomain misconfigurations enable cross-origin access and xss via cors.
Learn to manipulate the WebSocket handshake to exploit vulnerabilities, spoofing IPs with x-forwarded-for, bypassing a flawed XSS filter by capitalizing letters to trigger WebSocket alerts.
Modern web applications are highly dynamic and increasingly built around APIs, GraphQL, WebSockets, and AI-driven services. Finding real vulnerabilities today requires more than automated scanning. It requires a deep understanding of application behavior and precise manual exploitation using Burp Suite.
This course is a practitioner-level, hands-on guide to using Burp Suite for real-world bug bounty hunting and ethical hacking. It focuses on modern web vulnerabilities as they appear in production environments and teaches how to identify, exploit, and validate them step by step.
You will learn how to analyze requests and responses, manipulate application logic, and uncover high-impact vulnerabilities across a wide range of attack surfaces using Burp Suite as your primary tool.
