SERVER-SIDE PROCESSING AND CMS SECURITY COURSE
This module covers advanced server-side injection attacks, focusing on XML External Entity (XXE) and Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI). Learners exploit direct and blind XXE to access local files and internal networks, then identify vulnerable template engines, escape sandboxes, and achieve Remote Code Execution.
Topics Covered:
- XML External Entity (XXE)
- Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI)
This module provides a comprehensive methodology for assessing WordPress security. Learners explore WordPress architecture, misconfigurations, and XML-RPC abuse, then dive into plugin and theme vulnerabilities, file upload exploitation, and full attack chains from reconnaissance to system compromise.
Topics Covered:
- WordPress Architecture and Reconnaissance
- Authentication Weaknesses and Access Vector Abuse
- Plugin and Theme Vulnerability Assessment
- File Upload, File Access, and Code Execution
- Full Attack Chains and Automation
This module gives learners hands-on experience intercepting and analyzing web communications, identifying technologies in use, and evaluating security headers to uncover perimeter weaknesses.
