I had a really great time putting this presentation together and hopefully it'll inspire you to look at your applications more critically and fix them before someone malicious finds them!

Are Your Web Apps an Open Door for Hackers?

Imagine spending months perfecting your web app, only to find it leaking data like a sieve. Scary, right? That’s exactly what happens when common security flaws go unchecked.

In LMG Security’s latest blog, @tompohl shares jaw-dropping real-world web application security attack case studies from the field, including:

▪ Command Injection Jackpot – A hidden file upload flaw led to full server control.
▪ API Admin Takeover – An overlooked endpoint allowed attackers to create Super Admin accounts.
▪ Heap Dump Disaster – A debugging tool exposed Active Directory credentials and user tokens
.

If you haven’t patched the ScreenConnect vulnerability, I would bet your network is already compromised. I made a quick video to help you tell if your installation is vulnerable

So after coming home from work every week and telling @sherridavidoff about a great hack the team has done, she started recording me telling stories and now it’s a whole thing and we’ve made a sub-channel on youtube for my weekly pentesting tips! Here is the latest.
