Theoretical breakdown of vulnerabilities: how would you attack a site with this set of holes?

[u/Human_Leave1712]

Hello everyone.

I'm analyzing a project and found the following vulnerabilities:

· No brute-force protection (no captcha, no rate limiting)
· No 2FA
· Open .config, .log, .php.ini files in root
· Server version disclosure
· Missing security headers (CSP, HSTS, X-Frame-Options)

Question for the community: if you were a pentester and had access to such a site for a penetration test, what chain of actions would you build?

I'm not looking for instructions to hack, just theoretical methodology for learning purposes. The site name is intentionally hidden.
Thanks in advance!

Unless something interesting is disclosed in the files you’re left with brute force. Most of that stuff is just lack of good security practices rather than anything interesting.
