Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF): A Deep Dive into Risks and Mitigations for Software and Web Developers

by

SSRF occurs when an attacker exploits a server-side vulnerability to send crafted requests from a vulnerable web server to unintended locations. These requests can be directed to internal services, cloud metadata APIs, or other network resources that would otherwise be inaccessible to external users. Essentially, SSRF enables attackers to leverage the server’s trust in internal resources and APIs to bypass firewalls, access private services, and gather sensitive data.

Container Escapes: An Executive Guide to Mitigating Container Security Risks

by

A container escape occurs when an attacker exploits a security gap within the container to break out and access the host system. This escape can involve taking advantage of:

– Vulnerabilities in the containerisation software.
– Misconfigurations in permissions or settings.

Broken Access Control: A Silent Threat to Your Business

by

Access control is the process of defining who can access what resources and under what conditions. When these controls are not properly implemented or enforced, it leads to Broken Access Control. This vulnerability allows unauthorised individuals to access sensitive data, modify critical systems, or even take complete control of the infrastructure.
