In the near term, we are focused on the following tactical goals...

  1. Demonstrate most common web application security vulnerabilities
  2. Increase ease-of-use and expand userbase

  • General security cleanup. Remove exploits that are not lesson specific
  • Denial of service lesson rewrite
  • Bypass client side JavaScript lesson rewrite
  • Improve using an access control matrix lesson
  • Improve encoding basics lesson
  • Cross Site Trace (XST) only works in older browsers
  • Improve CSRF lesson
