If Aikido identifies more escalation potential for a finding, you can allow to continue the exploitation from the finding details.
Continuing exploitation can create or modify data and may disrupt parts of your application. We strongly recommend running this in a testing environment only.
How to continue exploitation
1
Open your finding details
Open a pentest issue in Aikido and go to Attack Analysis.
2
Click "Exploit Further"
If the finding is eligible, you will see the button Exploit Further.
3
Review the updated analysis
Aikido starts a deeper follow-up run and updates the same finding with the latest escalation and retest results.
Aikido only shows Exploit Further when a finding is eligible for escalation. If you do not see this action, the finding is either not eligible, already escalated, or has no additional escalation potential.
