Making money from Google & Facebook How tough is Bug Bounty?

 


Bug Bounty has become the bread and jam for many developers and it is getting tough since the year 2014. Only the hackers with deep research can get through it and those who find XSS in a intellectual way get paid.

If you find and IDOR bug they defininetly say it is already know or there are changes or it is an intentional and works as expected.

But what's the truth  no one knows or they wantedly close the report.

Find a bug which is difficult to exploit by others.

The more easy the bug the more easy it is for them to get it rejected and throw nothing at you.

But if it is more difficult to reproduce. It would be tougher for them to Reject the report.

I have found pretty easy bug and it was told that it is working intented or either they marked it as duplicate.. The truth..??? No one knows. Either they wantedly marked as duplicate just to escape the payment or just it is easy and anyone can find it.

A user (victim) created a YT Community post, later an attacker while being an Admin of the same Channel has saved the HTTP Request that deletes a Community Post / Poll, then the attacker can replay that HTTP Request after he's demoted from Admin to Subtitle Editor  that would delete the Post / Poll. I exploited this flaw I tried after 15 ...
