OWASP Insecure Web Components Project

Helping to build and secure better web applications through the identification of insecure web components.

Introduction

The OWASP Insecure Web Components Project is a repository of identified vulnerable components in popular web application frameworks and languages. The goal is to give developers and security professionals alike a centralized location where they can identify these vulnerable components when building and securing web applications.


Description

The focus of this project are the insecure components that make up popular web applications, and frameworks. These can be everything from Struts 2 tags, to ASP.NET MVC Models. We want to build a comprehensive list that can be used to help uncover issues in current implementations of web applications and aid in the secure architecture of them as well.

As of 2014 our current priorities are identifying insecure components in J2EE applications and Java Web Application Frameworks. This includes Struts, Spring, Wicket, Grails, and so forth. We are looking at everything from API related components to configuration and environment.

Involvement in the development and promotion of the OWASP Insecure Web Components Project is actively encouraged! You do not have to be a security expert in order to contribute. Some of the ways you can help:
