Abstract:
A method for detecting security vulnerabilities in web applications can include providing a payload to a web application during a first interaction with the web application at a computer server, where the payload includes a payload instruction and an identifier, detecting the identifier within the payload received during an interaction with the web application subsequent to the first interaction, and determining, responsive to detecting the identifier within the payload, whether the payload instruction underwent a security check prior to execution of the payload instruction.
Abstract:
A system for detecting security vulnerabilities in web applications, the system including, a black-box tester configured to provide a payload to a web application during a first interaction with the web application at a computer server, where the payload includes a payload instruction and an identifier, and an execution engine configured to detect the identifier within the payload received during an interaction with the web application subsequent to the first interaction, and determine, responsive to detecting the identifier within the payload, whether the payload instruction underwent a security check prior to execution of the payload instruction.
