Hello World!

Topic
This is my first blog post.
Most of my reports are still undisclosed, so I can’t share specific targets, exact payloads, or full timelines yet. Until those disclosures are public (or I’m explicitly allowed to publish details), I’ll focus on the parts that are safe and still useful:
- how I think about the bug class
- the mental models that helped me find it
- tooling + workflows (recon → hypothesis → testing)
- “what to watch for” patterns you can apply to your own targets
How I learned (and what I recommend)
If you want to learn faster, here’s the approach that helped me the most:
- Read lots of writeups and research posts (even if you don’t understand everything on day one).
- Pause and ask questions. I used AI a lot to break down confusing parts, explain terminology, and compare techniques.
- Collect references. I kept a personal “library” of links and notes so I could revisit topics later.
- Recreate concepts in small experiments (local labs, toy apps, or intentionally vulnerable setups).
Recommended reading
Here are two great PortSwigger resources I recommend:
- Web Cache Entanglement (research): https://portswigger.net/research/web-cache-entanglement
- Web Cache Labs (implementation flaws): https://portswigger.net/web-security/web-cache-poisoning/exploiting-implementation-flaws
What to expect next
- Quick vulnerability research notes
- Practical recon and triage workflows
- Small case studies (with responsible disclosure in mind)
Thanks for reading.
