A practical knowledge base for miscellaneous Capture the Flag (CTF) challenges, which may involve escaping restricted environments, decoding layered data, hiding information in files, or reversing custom games and virtual machines.
A practical knowledge base for web challenges in Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions, including PHP mistakes, injection techniques, source-code checks, and common flag locations.
CVE lookup and triage — map discovered services/versions to known CVEs via the cvelookup tool, score by CVSS/exploitability, and prioritize what to verify first.
A safety workflow for HackerOne bug-bounty programs, where researchers report security issues in participating websites and services. It reads the program’s allowed targets and rules before passing each permitted asset to penetration-testing steps.
Phase 1 conditional OSINT depth — four-dimension model (server→site→domain→people; people is conditional). Skill-gate companion to pentester-enum-services / pentester-recon. Use for passive OSINT depth, full recon dimensions, author tracking, not as Phase 0/Schema replacement.
A quick reference for choosing penetration-testing tools and recalling their commands. Penetration testing is authorized security testing used to find weaknesses in systems.
A quick reference for penetration testers who already know what they need to test. It groups payload examples, bypass ideas, and checking order for common web, token, container, AI, and CTF scenarios.
Domain routing and boundary guidance for authorized Active Directory red-team security testing, including Kerberos attacks, domain privilege escalation, lateral movement, and GPO abuse. Use when a task belongs to the AD testing domain and needs scope, evidence, pivot, or exit criteria.
Domain routing and boundary guidance for authorized API security testing, including BOLA/IDOR, authentication bypass, mass assignment, missing rate limits, and GraphQL issues. Use when a task belongs to the API testing domain and needs scope, evidence, pivot, or exit criteria.

CVE lookup and applicability assessment domain card. Use after reconnaissance has identified products, versions, services, or fingerprints and red-team mode needs evidence-based CVE matching before deeper testing.
CVE validation domain card. Use after CVE lookup has produced applicable or candidate CVEs and red-team mode needs scoped evidence to decide whether to continue, pivot, or report.
