24 Stories A Hacker’s Tale Ahoy, fellow digital adventurers! Today, we’re embarking on an exciting journey through the vast seas of web applications. Our quest? To uncover hidden treasures, or in this case, vulnerabilities! 1. Setting Sail – Understanding the Scope Before we embark on our hacking adventure, it’s essential to know the lay of…
I was surfing the internet when I came across this web portal http://www.h2biz.net which I found to be vulnerable to Reflected XSS. So I attempted to make a Stored XSS because I noticed a kind of message board. I have created a temporary email for registering on the website, then I completed the registration phase….
In this section, we’ll explain what SQL injection is, describe some common examples, explain how to find and exploit various kinds of SQL injection vulnerabilities, and summarize how to prevent SQL injection.
SQL injection is a web security vulnerability that allows an attacker to interfere with the queries that an application makes to its database. It generally allows an attacker to view data that they are not normally able to retrieve. This might include data belonging to other users, or any other data that the application itself is able to access. In many cases, an attacker can modify or delete this data, causing persistent changes to the application’s content or behavior.
In some situations, an attacker can escalate an SQL injection attack to compromise the underlying server or other back-end infrastructure, or perform a denial-of-service attack.
I navigated this website: https://www.edilportale.com, an Italian web portal on construction. I found out that it was vulnerable to reflected XSS, as seen in the image.

PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor is a web-based, server-side, multi-use, general-purpose, scripting and programming language that can be embedded in HTML. The PHP development, which was first created by Rasmus Lerdorf in 1995, is now being run by the PHP community.
The PHP programming language is still used by a large developer. It
is the most known backend programming language. In PHP web applications,
I prepared a list called “php security check list” which security
researchers should know.
