Episode 49: In this episode of Critical Thinking - Bug Bounty Podcast, Justin Gardner is once again joined by Nagli to discuss some of their recent hacking discoveries. They talk about finding and exploiting a backup file in an ASP.NET app, discovering vulnerabilities through Swagger files, and debating the vulnerability of a specific ‘undisclosed’ domain. Then they reflect on 2023’s Live Hacking Event circuit, and preview what’s to come in 2024’s.
