Software security vulnerabilities
-
Goal
-
Write a tool that tests and exploits code with software vulnerabilities
-
Description
- Software vulnerabilities are a common problem in code which leaves vulnerable many computer systems and applications. The aim of this project is for you to increase your understanding of such software vulnerabilities and to write a tool that reviews code for such vulnerabilities and tests various exploits on the vulnerable code. Some example vulnerabilities are described here: https://seedsecuritylabs.org/Labs_20.04/Software/
