Research update for HackTricks content

🤖 Agent Actions

Summary:

• Expanded the asset-discovery phase with continuous monitoring workflows (Amass/Subfinder/HTTPX pipelines, cloud inventory considerations) and highlighted how ProjectDiscovery’s November 4, 2025 credential monitoring feed can be folded into recon playbooks for leaked-password validation. (projectdiscovery.io)
• Updated the automation and vulnerability-triage guidance (Sections 3–5) to reflect fast scan chaining, template-driven rescans, and the need to sync newly published Nuclei content alongside KEV/vendor intelligence so freshly disclosed CVEs can be exercised immediately. (projectdiscovery.io)
• Enriched the phishing methodology with current AiTM tactics by documenting the May 9, 2024 Tycoon 2FA kit refresh (dynamic HTML/JS, MFA-cookie theft) so readers understand what modern kit-based MFA bypass looks like and can plan matching engagement tests. (proofpoint.com)

Tests: Not run (not requested).

Additional notes:

• Added a “Modern Tunnelling Tips” subsection plus other incremental clarifications, and introduced a References section citing only the newly used external sources per instructions.
