Web Application Pentesting

Web applications remain the most common pathway for data breaches. Whether you're running a traditional server-rendered application or a modern single-page application built on React, Angular, or Vue.js, the attack surface is substantial — and growing with every new feature your team ships. Our web application penetration testing is a thorough, manual-first assessment that covers the OWASP Top 10 and extends well beyond it. We test for the vulnerabilities that scanners reliably find (basic XSS, simple SQL injection) and the ones they consistently miss (stored XSS through complex workflows, second-order SQL injection, business logic bypass, and access control failures that require understanding your application's data model). We cover the full vulnerability spectrum: SQL Injection in all its forms (error-based, blind, time-based, out-of-band), Cross-Site Scripting including stored, reflected, and DOM-based variants, Cross-Site Request Forgery, Insecure Direct Object References, Server-Side Request Forgery, XML External Entity injection, and authentication and session management weaknesses. But the vulnerabilities that tend to cause the largest breaches are the logic flaws — privilege escalation, access control bypass, and workflow manipulation — and those require human expertise to discover. We test from every relevant perspective: unauthenticated visitors, standard users, privileged roles, and administrators. This multi-role approach reveals horizontal privilege escalation (accessing another user's data), vertical privilege escalation (gaining administrative access from a regular account), and authentication bypass vulnerabilities. Session management testing examines token entropy, cookie security attributes, session fixation, concurrent session behavior, and logout effectiveness. We review security headers (Content-Security-Policy, HSTS, X-Frame-Options), CORS configuration, and third-party library vulnerabilities in your dependency tree. For modern SPA frameworks, we understand how client-side routing, state management, and API communication patterns create attack surfaces that differ from traditional applications. We test for DOM-based vulnerabilities, client-side storage exposure, and insecure handling of authentication tokens in browser memory. Every finding includes compliance mapping to the frameworks relevant to your business. Critical vulnerabilities are reported immediately during testing. Complimentary retesting is included after your team implements fixes.
