Introduction In today’s fast-paced web development environment, frameworks and libraries have made developers’ lives significantly easier. Features like automatic data binding allow us to quickly capture and assign incoming HTTP request data to objects. However, this convenience can come at a steep price. One of the critical vulnerabilities that can arise from overly trusting automatic…
Introduction In the modern digital age, security is no longer a feature to be added at the end of the development cycle—it is a core principle that must be embedded from the very beginning. One of the most significant but often overlooked contributors to vulnerabilities is insecure design. This term refers to the failure to…
Introduction In the evolving landscape of web application security, many threats go unnoticed or underestimated. One such silent attacker is Host Header Poisoning. Although it doesn’t make headlines like SQL Injection or Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Host Header Poisoning can lead to serious vulnerabilities in web applications, including cache poisoning, password reset poisoning, virtual host routing…
Introduction Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) is a critical web security vulnerability that allows an attacker to induce the server-side application to make HTTP requests to an arbitrary domain of the attacker’s choosing. This vulnerability can be exploited to access internal systems, sensitive data, and services behind firewalls that would otherwise be inaccessible from the external…
