Polyglot Penetration Testing

Hey security enthusiasts!

When it comes to VAPT, it’s not just about the tools we use; it’s also about knowing the ins and outs of the language the application is built upon.

Every programming language has its unique quirks and features that can significantly impact your VAPT strategy. Whether it’s a Python web app or a Java-based system, each language brings its own set of potential vulnerabilities and loopholes.

I’ve compiled a list of key points to keep in mind while performing VAPT on applications written in different languages. I’ve tried to make it a handy reference that you can quickly glance at during your assessments. If you spot something familiar in the code, these notes could instantly point you towards potential vulnerabilities to investigate.

If you’ve got some insights or suggestions to add, don’t hesitate! I’ve enabled commenting on the Notion page, so drop your thoughts and let’s make this a collaborative effort.
