CyberSecurityUP f3da46886f feat: richer report — asset/business identification, exec summary, vuln table, accounts, conclusion
- Identify the ASSET (product/org + tech stack), not just the URL: probe extracts
  page title, fingerprints tech, matches known apps (Juice Shop, DVWA, WordPress…)
  and reads a business/brand hint (og:site_name / application-name / © copyright).
  Written to meta.json after the liveness probe; the run log now prints the asset.
- report.rs: EngagementMeta + read_meta; markdown() rebuilt with Asset-under-test,
  written Executive Summary, Vulnerability table (severity/status/CWE-OWASP), Test
  accounts created (from the vault), detailed confirmed findings, Needs-review
  section, and a written Conclusion. html() names the asset+stack. json_report()
  gains an asset block. typst_report() reads meta and injects asset/exec/conclusion/
  accounts/status/auth; Typst template upgraded (cover asset, asset table, status
  column, needs-review badge, accounts + conclusion sections).
- probe.rs: Probe.brand + extract_brand(); parse_forms/brand covered by tests.
- Verified: Typst template compiles to PDF with the new fields; 16 tests pass.

- HTTP: `curl` (dump ALL response headers with -i/-D-, follow/inspect redirects, set methods/params/cookies), `wget`.\n\
- Ports/services: `rustscan` if present, else `nmap`; if neither is installed you may \
install via apt (`apt install -y nmap`), brew, or cargo (`cargo install rustscan`) — \
otherwise probe common ports with `curl`/`nc`.\n\
- Content/params/URLs: `ffuf`, `gobuster`, `gau`, `katana`, `waybackurls`, `linkfinder` when available.\n\
- JS ANALYSIS: download every linked script (`curl -s <script.js>`) and grep it for endpoints/paths, \
`fetch(`/`axios`/XHR URLs, API & GraphQL routes, hidden params, and secrets (AKIA…, `api_key`, `token`, \
`Bearer `, `authorization`), plus `sourceMappingURL` (fetch the .map to recover original source). \
Prefer `linkfinder`/`gau`/`katana` to harvest more URLs when present, else regex with `grep -Eo`.\n\
- REQUEST/RESPONSE ANALYSIS: read status codes, every header, Set-Cookie flags, content-type, body length \
and response timing; use DIFFERENTIALS (authenticated vs anonymous, valid vs invalid input, existing vs \
missing resource) and reflected input / verbose errors to infer behavior and CONFIRM issues with evidence. \
Save full request/response pairs when they matter for the PoC.\n\
- NUCLEI (fast, targeted — never a blind full scan): first fingerprint the stack, then run nuclei ONLY on \
relevant templates, e.g. `nuclei -u <target> -tags <detected-tech,cve> -severity critical,high,medium \
-rl 50 -timeout 8 -retries 1` (or `-t <specific-template>` for a suspected CVE). Prefer targeted \
`-id`/`-tags` over the whole template set so it stays quick; confirm any hit manually with curl.\n\
- MISCONFIG HUNTING: probe for absurd-but-common misconfigurations — exposed `.git`/`.env`/backup & config \
files, directory listing, debug/actuator/trace endpoints, default & weak credentials, open admin panels, \
permissive CORS, verbose stack traces, exposed dashboards (Kibana/Grafana/Jenkins/phpMyAdmin), and cloud \
metadata (169.254.169.254) via SSRF.\n\
- RATE-LIMIT / ANTI-AUTOMATION: on auth, password-reset, OTP and sensitive endpoints, send a controlled \
burst (e.g. ~20-30 requests) and check for 429/lockout/Retry-After/backoff; report absence as a finding. \
Keep bursts small and non-disruptive — this is a control check, not a DoS.\n\
- TOOL DOWNLOAD (authorized): when a public PoC or scanner is needed you MAY `git clone` a specific PoC/exploit \
repo or download a tool (`git clone`, `wget`, `pip install`, `go install`, `cargo install`) — use pinned, \
reputable sources; review before running; never run destructive payloads. ALWAYS time-box downloads/installs \
(`timeout 90 <install> || echo skip`) and try each at most once — if it fails, isn't packaged, has no network \
or hangs, SKIP it and fall back to curl/nc/dig/python3. A missing or un-downloadable tool is NEVER a reason \

If you only observed it but never used it, report it as a LEAD (low confidence), not a confirmed finding.\n\
- Chain across steps: reuse any session/JWT/cookie/credential you obtain in one step against every other module; if one bug yields access, pivot it into IDOR/privesc/data-exfil and report the CHAIN, not isolated parts.\n\
- Decode & fingerprint → CVE: decode opaque tokens/paths (base64/JSON/marshal) and fingerprint the stack (server, framework, library/gem/plugin versions); map exact versions to known CVEs and attempt a safe, non-destructive PoC.\n\
- Audit tokens: for any JWT, check alg-confusion (RS→HS), alg:none, kid/jku injection, whether the signature is actually verified, and weak/guessable HS256 secrets.\n\

- Analyse responses FIRST: read status, headers, content-type, body, redirects and TIMING; let the evidence pick the technique (e.g. SQL error → SQLi; reflected input → XSS; numeric id in JSON → IDOR; missing X-Frame-Options → clickjacking; state-changing POST without a token → CSRF). Don't run payloads that the response makes irrelevant.\n\
- Map & CONNECT routes: build the route/endpoint graph and link one endpoint to another — an id/token/filename returned by endpoint A is the input to endpoint B; follow multi-step flows (login → profile → order → admin) and hunt the SENSITIVE ones (auth, password reset, payment, file upload/download, account/role changes, admin, export).\n\
- Mine PARAMETERS: enumerate query/body/header/cookie params (incl. hidden ones from JS/source maps); for each, reason about what it does and test the fitting attack (IDOR, injection, path traversal, mass-assignment, open-redirect, SSRF). Add plausible params the API might accept (id, user, role, admin, debug, redirect, file, callback).\n\
- MOCK realistic data: when a request needs valid-looking input to reach deeper logic, synthesize believable test data (emails, names, CPFs/SSNs with valid checksums, phone numbers, UUIDs, tokens, JSON bodies) so the flow proceeds — never use real PII.\n\
- Authenticated testing: if you can authenticate (given creds/roles or a login you performed), REUSE the session and exploit the AUTHENTICATED surface — the endpoints/params only reachable while logged in are where the high-impact bugs live. Test as EACH role you have (e.g. normal user AND admin) and compare.\n\
- Self-register when no creds are given: if the app allows sign-up, ANALYZE the register form (probe `form_details` has action/method/fields) and CREATE one clearly-marked benign test account (`nrsplt_<rand>@example.test`) — with curl (GET for CSRF+cookies, then POST the fields) or the Playwright browser for JS-rendered/multi-step forms — then log in and REUSE that session for authenticated testing. Register a second account only when a test needs two users. Non-destructive: one account, no mass-registration/spam; at signup also try mass-assignment (`role=admin`/`isAdmin`) and report it if accepted.\n\
- Build PoCs when needed: for issues that need an artifact to prove (clickjacking → an HTML page that frames the target; CSRF → an auto-submitting HTML form; a multi-step or timing exploit → a script), WRITE the PoC to the run's PoC dir, run/validate it, and cite the file in the evidence.\n\
- Test control BYPASSES: when something returns 401/403/redirect or is 'blocked', try to bypass it (verb tampering, path/case/encoding normalization, X-Original-URL / X-Rewrite-URL / X-Forwarded-* headers, missing-vs-invalid token, direct object/API access) and confirm the bypass with the two requests.\n\n";

const SPA_API_DOCTRINE: &str = "SPA + REST/API METHODOLOGY (modern JS app — hunt the API, not just the shell):\n\
- MAP THE API FROM THE BUNDLE: curl the main JS bundle(s) (`main*.js`, `runtime*.js`, `vendor*.js`) and grep for route \
paths and API calls — client routes (Angular/React router table), `/rest/…`, `/api/…`, GraphQL, and any `http(s)://` / \
relative endpoints, param names, and hardcoded secrets/keys/emails. Build the real endpoint list from the code, then hit it.\n\
- HIDDEN CLIENT ROUTES: SPA pages are client-side and often unlinked — extract the router table from the bundle AND brute \
common ones (`#/administration`, `#/admin`, `#/accounting`, `#/score-board`, `#/wallet`, `#/deluxe-membership`); a route that \
renders admin/score/scoreboard content is a broken-access-control finding.\n\
- AUTH & SQLi: on the login endpoint try SQLi auth bypass (`' OR 1=1--`, `admin@…'--`, tautologies) in the email/username; on \
search/query params try error-based then UNION SELECT to exfil the schema and user table (email+password hash). Also test \
weak/default admin creds and account/email ENUMERATION (different response for existing vs unknown user).\n\
- JWT: decode any JWT; test alg:none / 'unsigned' acceptance, RS256→HS256 confusion using the server's public key as the HMAC \
secret, `kid`/`jku` injection, and whether the signature is verified at all — forge a token impersonating another/admin user.\n\
- IDOR / BOLA / mass-assignment: numeric or guessable ids on `/api/<Object>/:id` (baskets, orders, feedbacks, reviews, users) \
— change the id or the owner field to read/modify another user's data; at REGISTER/PATCH add unexpected fields (`role=admin`, \
`isAdmin`, `deletedAt`, `id`) and check if the server binds them (privilege escalation / resurrecting deleted accounts).\n\
- FILE ACCESS: file/download/ftp endpoints — path traversal (`../`), and POISON NULL BYTE / double-encoding (`%2500`, `%00`) \
to defeat an extension allowlist and reach backup/config files (`*.bak`, `package.json.bak`, `*.md.bak`, `.env`, coupons/keys). \
Enumerate an open `/ftp` or static dir if present.\n\
- FORGOT-PASSWORD & OSINT: the reset flow keyed on a security question — the answer is often discoverable from the app's own \
data (profile, photo-wall image captions/EXIF, reviews). Use the app's public data to answer it, then reset.\n\
- OBSERVABILITY / EXPOSURE: probe `/metrics` (Prometheus), `/support/logs`, access logs, `/redirect?to=`, GraphQL introspection, \
Swagger/OpenAPI, and any `/rest/*` that returns more fields than the UI shows (excessive data exposure — password hashes, etc.).\n\
- CLIENT-SIDE & MISC: DOM XSS where user input is written to the DOM/innerHTML (search, product name) — prove it executes; \
NoSQL operator injection (`$ne`,`$gt`,`$where`) on review/update endpoints; SSRF on any URL-fetching field (profile image URL); \
open-redirect allowlist bypass by embedding an allowlisted substring; XXE on deprecated B2B/XML interfaces; weak/guessable \
coupon or discount codes (reverse the pattern from the bundle). Force ERROR HANDLING flaws with malformed JSON / wrong types to \
surface stack traces.\n\
Chain what you find (leaked key → forged token → admin route → data export). Prove every issue with the exact request+response.\n\n";

INSTALL WHAT YOU NEED (authorized), BUT NEVER GET STUCK ON AN INSTALL: if a recon tool is missing, \
try to install it — but TIME-BOX every install and move on if it fails. Always wrap installs like \
`timeout 90 apt-get install -y <t> || timeout 90 go install <pkg>@latest || echo 'skip <t>'` and \
run them non-interactively (`DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive`, `-y`, no prompts). \
Try a given tool install AT MOST ONCE — if it errors, is not packaged, needs a different OS, \
has no network, or hangs past the timeout, SKIP IT immediately and use an already-installed \
alternative or plain `curl`/`nc`/`dig`/`openssl`/`python3`. Do not wait on, retry, or block the \
whole recon for any single tool download — a missing tool is never a reason to stall. \
Options — `pip install <t>`, `go install <pkg>@latest`, `npm i -g <t>`, or `cargo install <t>` (all time-boxed). \
Recommended arsenal: subfinder/amass/assetfinder (subdomains), httpx/httprobe (probe live), \
gau/waybackurls/katana/hakrawler/gospider (URL harvest & crawl), gf (pattern-filter urls), \
arjun/paramspider (params), ffuf/feroxbuster/dirsearch (content discovery), nuclei (targeted templates), \
nmap/rustscan/naabu (ports), dnsx (dns), subjs/linkfinder/getjs (JS endpoints), whatweb/wappalyzer (fingerprint), \
nikto (server issues), testssl.sh/sslscan (TLS). Chain them: subfinder→httpx→katana/gau→gf→ffuf.\n\
