page1.php on this challenge shows you 403 Access Denied.
In this case, you’ll want to intercept the request to page1.php in Burp Suite
One way to discover the answer is to FUZZ this site using a requests file.
- After intercepting the request, right-click and choose ‘copy to file’
- I’ll save this file as
file.req

Open up the file in pico
pico file.req

Under the Host: header, add FUZZ:127.0.0.1
- We’ll fuzz for headers that might bypass 403 errors like this.

Then download the wordlist below using wget
- This wordlist is explicitly designed to bypass 403 restrictions where possible.

If you cat the file, you’ll see this list contains standard headers that can be used to bypass 403 errors.
