- Command Injection: Executing arbitrary commands on the server.
- XML Injection: Manipulating XML data to cause errors or attacks.
- LDAP Injection: Malicious input in LDAP queries to leak or gain unauthorized access.
- OS Command Injection: Executing system-level commands on the server.
2. Authentication and Session Management 🔒
- Brute Force Attack: Repeated password guesses to gain access.
- Session Hijacking: Stealing an active session to impersonate a user.
- Credential Reuse: Using the same password across multiple sites.
- Weak Password Storage: Storing passwords in an insecure way.
- Session Fixation: Setting a known session ID to hijack a user’s session.
3. Sensitive Data Exposure 🔓
- Inadequate Encryption: Weak or absent encryption to protect sensitive data.
- Data Leakage: Unauthorized exposure of sensitive data.
- Insecure Communication: Sending data without encryption (e.g., HTTP).
- Unpatched Software: Using outdated software with known vulnerabilities.
4. Security Misconfiguration ⚙️
- Default Passwords: Systems using factory-set passwords, easily guessed by attackers.
- Open Ports and Services: Leaving unused ports and services open for exploitation.
- Misconfigured CORS: Allowing unsafe cross-origin requests.
- Unpatched or Outdated Software: Vulnerable software that hasn’t been updated.
5. XML-Related Vulnerabilities 📜
- XXE (XML External Entity) Injection: Exploiting XML parsers to access sensitive files.
- XML Denial of Service (XDoS): Exploiting XML parsing to cause system overloads.
6. Broken Access Control 🔐
- Privilege Escalation: Gaining unauthorized higher-level privileges.
- IDOR (Insecure Direct Object References): Accessing unauthorized resources by manipulating URLs.
- Forceful Browsing: Guessing URLs to access restricted resources.
7. Insecure Deserialization 🛠️
- Remote Code Execution via Deserialization: Executing arbitrary code by deserializing unsafe objects.
8. API Security Issues ⚙️
- Insecure API Endpoints: Exposed APIs without proper security mechanisms.
- API Abuse: Misusing APIs for malicious purposes like scraping data.
9. Client-Side Vulnerabilities 🖥️
- Clickjacking: Tricking users into clicking on malicious links or content.
- DOM XSS: Injecting malicious scripts by manipulating the DOM structure in the browser.
- Browser Cache Poisoning: Exploiting browser cache to inject malicious content.
10. Denial of Service (DoS) ⚠️
- DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service): Flooding a target with massive traffic to overwhelm it.
- Slowloris: Keeping HTTP connections open to exhaust server resources.
11. Miscellaneous Vulnerabilities 🌐
- SSRF (Server-Side Request Forgery): Manipulating the server to make unauthorized requests.
- HTTP Parameter Pollution: Injecting extra parameters into HTTP requests to bypass validation.
- Clickjacking: Embedding malicious content in legitimate websites.
12. Network Security Vulnerabilities 🌐
- DNS Zone Transfer: Unauthorized transfer of DNS zone data.
- SMB Vulnerabilities: Exploiting flaws in the SMB protocol, leading to remote code execution.
13. Cryptographic Vulnerabilities 🔐
- Weak Cryptographic Algorithms: Using outdated or insecure algorithms for encryption.
- Improper Key Management: Poor handling of cryptographic keys leading to security breaches.
14. Web of Things (WoT) Vulnerabilities 🌍
- Unauthorized Access to Smart Homes: Gaining unauthorized control over IoT devices in homes.
15. Authentication Bypass 🔑
- CAPTCHA Bypass: Circumventing CAPTCHA mechanisms to automate attacks.
- Password Reset Vulnerabilities: Exploiting flaws in the password reset process.
