Claude Code powers automated bug bounty hunting framework

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

An open-source framework called Claude Bug Bounty leverages Anthropic's Claude Code to automate bug bounty hunting tasks. The tool uses specialized sub-agents to perform reconnaissance, fuzzing, and validation, allowing users to initiate scans with plain English commands. In a 90-minute test on HackerOne, the framework identified 47 subdomains, two candidate IDOR vulnerabilities, and drafted a medium-severity bug report that was submitted for triage with minimal edits.
