OWASP Vicnum Project

OWASP Vicnum Project is a collection of intentionally vulnerable web applications and will now includes an intentionally vulnerable web API.

Introduction

“Flexible, realistic, vulnerable web applications useful to auditor’s honing their web application security skills”

They demonstrate common web application vulnerabilities such as SQL injection and cross site scripting.

Vicnum applications are commonly used in Capture the Flag exercises at security conferences.

See http://vicnum.ciphertechs.com/

Project Goal

  • Have fun and stimulate interest in the field
  • Test web application scanners
  • Test manual attack techniques
  • Test source code analysis tools
  • Look at the code that allows the vulnerabilities
  • Test web application firewalls
  • Examine evidence left by attacks

Where is Vicnum?

Vulnerable VM of some Vicnum applications is downloadable from sourceforge.

Since individual applications within the project are constantly being updated, not everything is on that VM. Individual components are either on sourceforge or on github.

Vicnum applications are also distributed as part of the Broken Web Application Project (see https://www.owasp.org/index.php/OWASP_Broken_Web_Applications_Project)

Vicnum applications are also typically available online at http://vicnum.ciphertechs.com
