This project is a web application security standard and vulnerability framework. It provides a comprehensive list of the most critical security risks facing web applications, paired with technical guidance and a structured methodology for identifying and mitigating these flaws. The framework functions as a secure coding guide and a risk assessment methodology, offering a standardized approach to prioritizing vulnerabilities based on their potential impact and likelihood of exploitation. It defines architectural patterns and technical recommendations to help developers implement defense in dep
The Web Application Security Testing Guide is an open-source security testing standard and comprehensive framework of procedures for identifying vulnerabilities in web applications and services. It serves as a vulnerability assessment methodology and a web API security audit framework, providing a structured approach for conducting consistent and thorough security audits of web-based software. The project utilizes a methodology-based audit framework and checklist-driven workflows to ensure repeatable discovery and exploitation steps. It organizes security tests through taxonomy-based vulnerab
Dalfox is an automated web application security tool specifically designed for discovering and verifying cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. It functions as an XSS vulnerability scanner that analyzes HTTP parameters and DOM structures to identify reflected, stored, and blind injection points. The project distinguishes itself by providing a Model Context Protocol server and a REST API, allowing artificial intelligence agents and remote interfaces to trigger and manage security scans programmatically. It utilizes a payload mutation engine and fingerprinting strategies to execute WAF evasion t
Go-SCP is a secure coding guide and vulnerability prevention framework for the Go programming language. It serves as a technical manual for implementing defensive programming patterns and security benchmarks to prevent common software vulnerabilities. The project functions as a static security reference, mapping known software weaknesses to specific Go remediation patterns. It provides a curated repository of secure coding standards and vetted implementation practices specifically focused on web application security. The framework covers security auditing by comparing source code against est
