It’s been a while since the last time we wrote about the OWASP ZAP – Zed Attack Proxy for Web Application Penetration Testing, back in October 2010. ZAP is an easy to use integrated penetration testing tool for finding vulnerabilities in web applications. It is designed to be used by people with a wide range [...]
The primary purpose of the Hatkit Proxy is to create a minimal, lightweight proxy which stores traffic into an offline storage where further analysis can be performed, i.e. all kinds of analysis which is currently implemented by the proxies themselves (WebScarab/Burp/Paros etc). Also, since the http traffic is stored in a MongoDB, the traffic is [...]
The Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is an easy to use integrated penetration testing tool for finding vulnerabilities in web applications. It is designed to be used by people with a wide range of security experience and as such is ideal for developers and functional testers who a new to penetration testing.

CodeCrawler is a tool aimed at assisting code review practitioners. It is a static code review tool which searches for key topics within .NET and J2EE/JAVA code. It’s a Microsoft .NET 3.5 Windows Form application which supports the OWASP Code Review Project. It provides automatic STRIDE classification a very simple DREAD calculator and few minor [...]
This project’s goal is to create a “best practices” web application penetration testing framework which users can implement in their own organizations and a “low level” web application penetration testing guide that describes how to find certain issues. Version 3 of the Testing Guide was released in last month in December 2008, the project was [...]
Pantera is actually using an improved version of SPIKE Proxy and is a project under the umbrella of OWASP. It’s aiming to be a more automated method for testing Web Application Security.

This is a useful article that has basically taken the OWASP Top 10 Vulnerabilities and remapped them to PHP with actual examples. The Open Web Application Security Project released a helpful document that lists what they think are the top ten security vulnerabilities in web applications. These vulnerabilities can, of course, exist in PHP applications. [...]
Ah at last a good solid collaborative effort to identify and categorise software vulnerabilities with a solid taxonomy and good organisation! It seems very well written too in terms that anyone familiar with software development or programming can understand. Fortify Software, which identifies and remediates software vulnerabilities, has contributed its collection of 115 types of [...]
