Hello. I am a budding Bug Bounty Hunter and I have a question. Can I get into trouble by using Burp Suite's Content Discovery tool?

Hi George, The content discovery tool will be sending out automated requests in order to discover files and directories based upon common names supplied in a wordlist. We would always reiterate that you need to get permission from the site owner before using any of our tools against a particular site.
