ctf-web

Web exploitation patterns include open redirects, SSRF, XSS, injection, and deserialization. This Skill catalogs these techniques into digestible categories to help you map CTF challenges to real-world security weaknesses.

You can practice multi-stage exploit chains using scenario-based exercises that map reconnaissance and privilege escalation paths. This structured guidance supports hands-on practice across HTTP apps, APIs, and frontend surfaces.

No external tools are required beyond what is typically available in a standard security lab. The Skill provides structured guidance and a pattern catalog for hands-on practice without specialized dependencies.

Defenders can simulate attack paths to verify mitigations and document remediation steps for an app. By understanding multi-stage exploit chains, analysts can validate defense considerations and outline safe experiments.

The best way is to review the pattern catalog to identify a target vulnerability type and outline a safe experiment. This maps reconnaissance patterns to privilege escalation chains applicable to HTTP apps and APIs.

This approach applies to both CTFs and real-world targets. The Skill helps security practitioners map and understand web exploitation techniques across HTTP apps, APIs, and frontend surfaces with structured guidance.
