    <title>OWASP WSTG: Testing JSON Web Tokens</title>
    <link>https://owasp.org/www-project-web-security-testing-guide/latest/4-Web_Application_Security_Testing/06-Session_Management_Testing/10-Testing_JSON_Web_Tokens</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://owasp.org/www-project-web-security-testing-guide/latest/4-Web_Application_Security_Testing/06-Session_Management_Testing/10-Testing_JSON_Web_Tokens</guid>
    <description>Reference detailing OWASP&#x27;s Web Security Testing Guide (WSTG) procedures for testing JSON Web Tokens (JWTs). It covers analyzing JWT headers and payloads for sensitive data, testing for tampering vulnerabilities, and verifying signature integrity. Specific attack vectors discussed include exploiting the &quot;none&quot; algorithm, the ECDSA &quot;psychic signatures&quot; vulnerability (CVE-2022-21449), weak HMAC key cracking using tools like crackjwt.py and John the Ripper, and HMAC vs. public key confusion attacks.</description>

    <title>BLA9:2025 Broken Access Control - OWASP</title>
    <link>https://owasp.org/www-project-top-10-for-business-logic-abuse/docs/the-top-10/broken-access-control</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://owasp.org/www-project-top-10-for-business-logic-abuse/docs/the-top-10/broken-access-control</guid>
    <description>Reference detailing BLA9:2025 Broken Access Control, a critical OWASP Top 10 vulnerability. It explains how missing role checks, flawed logic trusting client-supplied parameters, overly broad permissions, and identifier tampering (BOLA) enable attackers to perform unauthorized operations. Examples include Gitlab branch deletion vulnerabilities and privilege escalation in hay-kot mealie v2.2.0, mapping to CWEs like CWE-863 and CWE-862, and referencing CVEs such as CVE-2021-39931 and CVE-2023-3290.</description>

    <title>OWASP A01: Broken Access Control Risks and Prevention</title>
    <link>https://blog.securelayer7.net/understanding-broken-access-control/</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://blog.securelayer7.net/understanding-broken-access-control/</guid>
    <description>Library detailing OWASP A01: Broken Access Control risks and prevention. This resource clarifies the distinction between authentication and authorization, highlights the importance of the principle of least privilege (PoLP) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and provides a Python Flask code snippet demonstrating secure RBAC implementation. It further explains how vulnerabilities manifest through techniques like URL manipulation and parameter tampering, and identifies common failure scenarios such as Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR) and missing function-level access control.</description>

    <title>OWASP-TOP-10 A01:2025 Broken Access Control</title>
    <link>https://github.com/R-Galarza/OWASP-TOP-10---Web-Application-Security-Risks/blob/main/A01:2025%20Broken%20Access%20Control.md</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://github.com/R-Galarza/OWASP-TOP-10---Web-Application-Security-Risks/blob/main/A01:2025%20Broken%20Access%20Control.md</guid>
    <description>Library detailing Broken Access Control, a critical OWASP Top 10 risk where applications fail to enforce user restrictions. This resource highlights how attackers can exploit missing or client-side enforced authorization checks, using tools like Burp Suite to directly access backend administrative endpoints. It demonstrates the vulnerability through a case study of an application trusting client-side role validation, leading to unauthorized data access, privilege escalation, and account compromise, and emphasizes implementing server-side authorization and the principle of least privilege for mitigation.</description>

    <title>IDOR - OWASP Foundation</title>
    <link>https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/insecure_direct_object_reference</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/insecure_direct_object_reference</guid>
    <description>Reference detailing Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerabilities, a class of Broken Access Control (OWASP Top 10 A01:2025). IDOR occurs when applications expose internal object references, like database keys or file names, without verifying user authorization, allowing attackers to access unauthorized resources by modifying these references in URL path parameters, query strings, or request bodies. Prevention strategies include enforcing server-side authorization, using non-sequential identifiers, applying the principle of least privilege, and validating access at the data layer.</description>

    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://owasp.org/www-community/vulnerabilities/Insecure_Deserialization</guid>
    <description>Reference on Insecure Deserialization, a vulnerability that allows attackers to execute code or manipulate objects by abusing an application&#x27;s deserialization process with untrusted data. This vulnerability can lead to remote code execution, denial-of-service, and privilege escalation. Mitigations include avoiding deserialization of untrusted data, implementing integrity checks, enforcing strict type constraints, isolating deserialization code, logging exceptions, monitoring the process, and using alternative formats like JSON.</description>

    <title>OWASP CRS Vulnerability Enables Charset Validation Bypass</title>
    <link>https://gbhackers.com/owasp-crs-vulnerability/</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://gbhackers.com/owasp-crs-vulnerability/</guid>
    <description>Library update addresses CVE-2026-21876 in OWASP CRS, a critical vulnerability allowing charset validation bypass in WAFs. The flaw, affecting CRS 3.3.x and 4.0.0-4.21.0 across ModSecurity, Coraza, and libmodsecurity, enabled XSS and other encoding-based attacks by only validating the last multipart section&#x27;s charset. The fix, implemented in CRS 4.22.0 and 3.3.8, now validates every detected charset to prevent bypass.</description>

    <title>OWASP CRS Vulnerability Allows Attackers to Bypass Charset Validation</title>
    <link>https://cyberpress.org/owasp-crs-vulnerability/</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://cyberpress.org/owasp-crs-vulnerability/</guid>
    <description>Writeup of CVE-2026-21876 in OWASP CRS, a CRITICAL vulnerability allowing attackers to bypass charset validation by exploiting ModSecurity&#x27;s chained rule processing. The flaw, present in rule 922110, enables UTF-7 encoded XSS payloads by only validating the final multipart part of a request, leaving earlier, malicious parts uninspected. Patches are available in CRS 4.22.0 and CRS 3.3.8, addressing the bypass by validating all charset parameters.</description>

    <title>XSS (Cross Site Scripting) Prevention Cheat Sheet - OWASP</title>
    <link>https://www.owasp.org/index.php/XSS_(Cross_Site_Scripting)_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet#A_Positive_XSS_Prevention_Model</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.owasp.org/index.php/XSS_(Cross_Site_Scripting)_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet#A_Positive_XSS_Prevention_Model</guid>
    <description>Reference detailing XSS prevention techniques, emphasizing the necessity of combining defensive measures. It highlights how modern frameworks like React and Angular mitigate XSS through templating and auto-escaping, yet points out potential vulnerabilities when these frameworks are used insecurely, such as with React&#x27;s `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` or Angular&#x27;s `bypassSecurityTrustAs*` functions. The guide stresses the importance of output encoding, including HTML entity, attribute, JavaScript, CSS, and URL encoding, with specific advice on safe sinks like `.textContent` and `.setAttribute`.</description>

    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/DOM_Based_XSS</guid>
    <description>Reference detailing DOM-based XSS (Type-0 XSS), a vulnerability where client-side scripts execute unexpectedly due to malicious modifications of the DOM environment, not the HTTP response itself. It provides examples, including a `decodeURIComponent` vulnerability and the fragment-based technique to bypass server-side detection, and mentions attacks against Adobe PDF plugins. The entry also references testing tools like DOM Snitch and the DOM XSS Wiki.</description>
