暫譯: 攻擊與利用現代網頁應用程式：探索進行現代網路攻擊與利用的心態、技術與工具

Master the art of web exploitation and bug bounty hunting with real CVEs and CTFs on SAML, WordPress, IoT, ElectronJS, and Ethereum Smart Contracts.

Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook.
 
Key Features

• Learn to discover vulnerabilities using source code, dynamic analysis, and decompiling binaries.
• Find and exploit vulnerabilities like SQL Injection, XSS, Command Injection, RCE, and Reentrancy.
• Analyze real security incidents based on MITRE ATT&CK to understand the risk at the CISO level. 

Book Description
Web Attacks and Exploits pose an ongoing threat to the interconnected world. This comprehensive book explores the new challenges of web application security, providing an in-depth understanding of hackers' methods. It equips readers with the practical knowledge and skills needed to effectively understand these attacks, accompanying them through 3 CTFs and explaining the discovery of 7 CVEs.
The book starts by emphasizing the importance of mindset and toolset in conducting successful attacks. It helps you understand the required methodologies and frameworks, how to configure the environment using interception proxies and automate tasks with Bash and Python, and how to set up a research lab.
The book explores how to attack the authentication layer focusing on SAML, internet-facing web applications (specifically WordPress and SQL injection), exploiting vulnerabilities in IoT devices such as Command Injection. It also covers attacks on Electron JavaScript-based applications (XSS and RCE) and the security challenges of auditing and exploiting Ethereum Smart Contracts written in Solidity. The book concludes by describing how to disclose vulnerabilities. Each chapter analyses confirmed cases of exploitation mapped with MITRE ATT&CK.
By the end of this book, you will enhance your ability to find and exploit web vulnerabilities.
