Identify and test open redirect vulnerabilities in web applications by analyzing URL redirection parameters, bypass techniques, and exploitation chains for phishing and token theft.

Systematically assessing REST and GraphQL API endpoints against the OWASP API Security Top 10 risks using automated and manual testing techniques.

Testing web applications for path traversal vulnerabilities that allow reading or writing arbitrary files on the server by manipulating file path parameters.

Tests APIs for excessive data exposure where endpoints return more data than the client application needs, relying on the frontend to filter sensitive fields. The tester intercepts API responses and analyzes them for leaked PII, internal identifiers, debug information, or sensitive business data that the UI does not display but the API transmits. This maps to OWASP API3:2023 Broken Object Property Level Authorization. Activates for requests involving API data leakage testing, excessive data exposure, response filtering bypass, or API over-fetching.

Identifying and exploiting Cross-Origin Resource Sharing misconfigurations that allow unauthorized cross-domain data access and credential theft during security assessments.

Discovering and accessing unprotected pages, APIs, and administrative interfaces by enumerating URLs and bypassing authentication controls during authorized security assessments.

Identifying sensitive data exposure vulnerabilities including API key leakage, PII in responses, insecure storage, and unprotected data transmission during security assessments.

Detecting and exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities using sqlmap to extract database contents during authorized penetration tests.

Identifying and validating cross-site scripting vulnerabilities using Burp Suite's scanner, intruder, and repeater tools during authorized security assessments.

Identifying and exploiting SSRF vulnerabilities to access internal services, cloud metadata, and restricted network resources during authorized penetration tests.
