Skill UI

A specialized security testing skill designed to identify excessive data exposure in REST or GraphQL APIs, adhering to OWASP API3:2023 guidelines. It works by intercepting raw API responses and systematically comparing the returned data against what the frontend UI actually displays. This helps auditors detect leaked PII, internal identifiers, debug fields, or other sensitive business data that should have been filtered out by the endpoint response. Use cases include auditing microservice boundaries, assessing mobile API responses designed for multiple clients, and verifying proper respons...

This skill provides a comprehensive guide for identifying and exploiting insecure local data storage vulnerabilities in Android and iOS applications. It covers analyzing plaintext credentials, unencrypted SQLite databases, insecure SharedPreferences, and improper keychain/keystore usage. Essential for performing robust mobile penetration testing focused on OWASP M9.

A comprehensive tool and guide for detecting and exploiting NoSQL injection vulnerabilities in MongoDB, CouchDB, and similar databases. It simulates advanced attacks such as authentication bypass, blind data extraction using regex, and JavaScript execution via the $where operator. Ideal for penetration testers and security researchers assessing APIs and web applications backed by NoSQL backends.

This skill guides the detection and exploitation of JavaScript prototype pollution vulnerabilities. It covers both client-side (DOM XSS) and server-side (RCE, Auth Bypass) attacks by injecting properties into Object.prototype using keys like `__proto__`. Use this when assessing APIs that deep-merge or clone user-controlled JSON data, or for general web application security testing.

A comprehensive guide detailing the methodology for identifying and exploiting Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). This technique is critical in authorized penetration testing, allowing attackers to pivot from public-facing applications to internal resources. Use cases include stealing cloud provider metadata (AWS, GCP), scanning private IP ranges, and accessing internal APIs and admin panels.

A comprehensive guide detailing the process of identifying and exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities in web applications. The content covers manual and automated techniques, including error-based, boolean, and time-based blind injections. Users learn to fingerprint major database engines (MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle) and utilize tools like sqlmap to demonstrate data extraction and security risks during authorized penetration tests.

This comprehensive guide details the professional process of detecting and exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities using the powerful sqlmap tool. It covers the entire workflow, from initial vulnerability identification and basic scanning to database enumeration, data dumping, advanced exploitation (like file reading and OS command execution), and WAF bypass techniques, ensuring thorough penetration testing reporting.

Leverage the in-toto framework to enforce software supply chain integrity for container builds. This method generates cryptographically signed attestations (link metadata) at every stage—from code checkout to scanning—verifying that the deployed container image followed a predefined and approved build process. It is essential for implementing robust security controls, especially when requiring verifiable provenance before deployment in Kubernetes environments.

A comprehensive guide for intercepting and analyzing HTTP/HTTPS traffic from mobile applications using Burp Suite. This skill walks through configuring proxies on Android and iOS, handling CA certificate installation, and executing advanced penetration testing techniques. It is essential for assessing API security, identifying data leakage, and finding authentication vulnerabilities in mobile client-server communications.

This guide provides a comprehensive workflow for Test-Driven Development (TDD) within Laravel applications. It covers best practices for writing unit, feature, and integration tests using modern tools like Pest and PHPUnit. Learn how to manage database states, mock external services, and achieve high code coverage efficiently.

A comprehensive guide detailing techniques for detecting and exploiting Blind Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). It uses advanced out-of-band (OOB) techniques, such as Burp Collaborator and timing analysis, to interact with internal services, scan private IP ranges, and extract cloud metadata (AWS, GCP, Azure) even when the application does not reflect the server response directly. Essential for web application penetration testing.

A comprehensive guide for authorized red-team assessments using the Pacu framework. This process details how to enumerate IAM policies, scan for privilege escalation paths, test data access across services (S3, DynamoDB), and simulate lateral movement to determine the blast radius of compromised AWS credentials.
