Parameter mining: brute-forcing 65,000 inputs in 40 requests
You can't send 65,000 candidate parameter names one per request — the target would rate-limit you into next week. Binary-search bucketing packs 128 names into one request and splits only the buckets that move the response. Here's the mechanism, the who-wins HPP table, and the mass-assignment payloads that turn a hidden field into admin.

Recon Notes
The richest recon target is a file you already downloaded
Passive recon isn't running quieter scans — it's re-reading the traffic you already captured. The JS bundle you loaded ships a source map that rebuilds the original codebase, a chunk manifest listing every hidden admin route, and a bootstrap state object with the current user's role. No new requests, nothing to detect.
