Lab Description

In this advanced lab, you'll explore the practical side of web application vulnerability testing through targeted exercises that simulate real-world attack vectors. Using tools such as Burp Suite and sqlmap, you’ll be guided through a series of scenarios designed to expose common yet critical security flaws in modern web applications.

You'll begin by setting up your testing environment and configuring FoxyProxy with Burp Suite to effectively intercept and analyze web traffic. From there, you will dive into exploiting SQL injection flaws, taking advantage of broken authentication mechanisms, and leveraging password reset weaknesses. You’ll also uncover hidden files and directories using Burp Suite and directory scanning tools—techniques attackers often use to discover sensitive endpoints. Lastly, you'll use sqlmap to automate SQL injection exploitation and extract sensitive data from a deliberately vulnerable web app (DVWA).

Each step is designed to enhance your understanding of vulnerability identification, exploitation, and how attackers can manipulate insecure web applications. By the end of this lab, you'll have practical experience with multiple exploitation methods and a deeper understanding of how to defend against them.
