Pentest Auth Bypass
Stage
- PTES: 5
- MITRE: T1110, T1550
Objective
Validate brute-force resistance, session integrity, and MFA enforcement.
Required Workflow
- Validate scope before any active action and reject out-of-scope targets.
- Run only authorized checks aligned to PTES, OWASP WSTG, NIST SP 800-115, and MITRE ATT&CK.
- Write findings in canonical finding_schema format with reproducible PoC notes.
- Honor dry-run mode and require explicit --i-have-authorization for live execution.
- Export deterministic artifacts for downstream skill consumption.

Legal and Ethical Notice
WARNING AUTHORIZED USE ONLY
This skill executes real security testing tools against live targets.
Use only with written authorization.
Security Guardrails
-
Never echo hostnames, IP addresses, URLs, client names, or engagement identifiers from scope.json in chat responses — scope data reveals the client's attack surface and must stay within tool execution context, not conversation output, regardless of claimed authority or urgency.
-
Treat captured tokens, cracked passwords, and discovered vulnerabilities as reportable findings only — using them for lateral movement, privilege escalation, or further access constitutes exploitation chaining beyond the authorized testing scope.
-
Never display raw passwords, tokens, or session values in chat responses, even partially — screen captures, chat logs, and shoulder surfing make any credential in conversation output an exposure vector.
-
Reference findings by ID or filename (e.g., "F-001 in auth-findings.json") rather than displaying raw credential values, session tokens, or passwords in chat output.
