Research update for HackTricks content

🤖 Agent Actions

I’ve updated src/pentesting-web/registration-vulnerabilities.md with new, practical techniques and modern developments, while preserving all existing valuable content and HackTricks’ style. Key enhancements:

  • Added a dedicated section on Weak Email/Phone Verification (OTP/Magic Link) with:

    • Concrete brute-force, multi-value smuggling, and response-oracle checks
    • Race and concurrency strategies, plus a short Turbo Intruder snippet
    • Practical ffuf example
    • Internal references to rate-limit-bypass, 2fa-bypass, and email-injections
  • Added a comprehensive Account Pre‑Hijacking Techniques section:

    • Step-by-step tests for Classic–Federated Merge, Unexpired Session Identifier, Trojan Identifier, Unexpired Email Change, and Non‑Verifying IdP issues
    • Practical guidance on standing up a test OIDC provider and verification expectations
    • Internal references to reset-password and race-condition pages
    • A new external reference to Microsoft’s pre‑hijacking research (MSRC)
  • Expanded Duplicate Registration with email canonicalization tricks and additional edge cases (provider behavior, unicode confusables)

  • Linked related HackTricks content for CAPTCHA and phone-number checks

  • Kept the existing Password Reset Takeover, OAuth, SAML, and Upsert (Registration-as-Reset) sections intact and improved context around them

  • Updated the References section (last section), adding only one highly relevant modern source:

    • Microsoft MSRC – Pre‑hijacking attacks on web user accounts (May 2022)

If you want me to further refine with a short invite-code fuzzing section or add a small disposable-email domain wordlist example, I can append that without duplicating other pages.
