Web Application Pentesting Checklist
Strengthen your app security with proven testing steps. Identify, analyze, and fix vulnerabilities before attackers find them.
Information Gathering
Collect app URLs, technologies, server details, and endpoints. Understand the architecture to plan effective penetration strategies.
Authentication and Authorization Testing
Test login pages, session management, password policies, and role-based access controls. Identify broken authentication vulnerabilities.
Input Validation & Injection Flaws
Check all user inputs for SQL Injection, XSS, command injection, and other critical input-based vulnerabilities.
Business Logic Testing
Analyze workflows to find flaws in app logic, such as price manipulation, privilege escalation, or bypassing business rules.
Security Misconfigurations
Inspect server settings, APIs, error messages, and headers for misconfigurations that expose the app to attackers.
