Web Application Attack Techniques

Web application vulnerabilities and exploitation techniques beyond the OWASP Top 10.

Web application attacks exploit vulnerabilities in the logic and code of websites — including SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), server-side request forgery (SSRF), IDOR, JWT abuse, and business logic flaws — that go beyond the OWASP Top 10. This library of techniques is curated by Vid Grosek, Slovenia's first OSCE3-certified penetration tester.
