Web Application Exploitation

Web Application Exploitation is a systematic methodology within the domain of web penetration testing that identifies, analyzes, and leverages vulnerabilities in web-based applications to compromise their confidentiality, integrity, or availability, distinguishing itself from broader exploitation techniques by focusing exclusively on application-layer flaws such as injection, cross-site scripting, and broken authentication.
