Web App Pen Testing Labs
In these labs, you will learn how attackers exploit vulnerabilities like XML External Entity (XXE) injection, broken access controls, insecure deserialization in ASP.NET ViewState, and Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI). You will practice identifying, exploiting, and understanding the attack chains that lead to privilege escalation and remote code execution. By completing these exercises, you will strengthen your ability to detect, prevent, and remediate critical web application security flaws.
