The concept of “infinite money” has tantalized humanity for centuries, from alchemists seeking to turn lead into gold to gamers exploiting code loopholes in virtual worlds. But what happens when these glitches emerge in real-world financial systems? Flaws in transaction logic—whether in banking software, payment gateways, or stock trading algorithms—can create cascading vulnerabilities, enabling theoretical…
Introduction APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) are the backbone of modern web and mobile applications, enabling seamless data exchange between systems. However, with increased API usage comes heightened security risks. One of the most prevalent and dangerous API vulnerabilities is Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA), also known as Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR). BOLA occurs when an API…
Introduction In today’s digital age, cybersecurity threats are evolving rapidly, and one of the oldest yet most effective attack methods is the Brute Force Attack. These attacks exploit weak login mechanisms by systematically guessing passwords until the correct one is found. Despite advancements in security, many organizations and individuals still fall victim to brute force attacks…
Introduction In the ever-evolving world of cybersecurity, attackers constantly look for vulnerabilities to exploit. While most organizations focus on patching software bugs or securing user credentials, a quieter and equally dangerous threat often flies under the radar—subdomain squatting. This attack vector involves hijacking unused or misconfigured subdomains to distribute malware, steal credentials, or launch sophisticated…
