HexaGuard: Mastering the Art of Digital Shadows

part 2 of all vulnerabilities

 

1. Injection Vulnerabilities 💥

  • SQL Injection: Malicious SQL queries to manipulate databases.
  • XSS: Malicious scripts injected into web pages to attack users’ browsers.
  • 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  • Unpatched Software: Using outdated software with known vulnerabilities.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  • Unpatched or Outdated Software: Vulnerable software that hasn’t been updated.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.
