DVWA VS WebGoat

Step 2: Deploy DVWA (Damn Vulnerable Web App) DVWA is a classi learning platform containing common vulnerabilities like XSS, SQLi, CSRF, and file upload flaws. ✓Installation Steps:https://github.com/digininja/DVWA.git 1.Move DVWA into ServBay’s root directory (/Applications/ServBay/www/) Then modify the config.inc.php.dist file suffix to config.inc.php, and modify the database user name and password. Other configurations do not need to be changed.

For this tutorial, I'll be using my personal PC, running a virtualized instance of Kali Linux, and a Samsung Galaxy A23 with Termux installed to host the web application that we will attack. The Samsung Galaxy will run an Apache server that serves DVWA (Damn Vulnerable Web App), an application intentionally built with security flaws so we can practice pentesting in a realistic setting.

There's also a bunch of intentionally vulnerable Webapps and VMs aimed at demonstrating potential footholds and common exploits leading to owning of the host including but not limited to: bWAPP, Damn Vulnerable Web App, WebGoat, Metasploitable 3, Mutillidae, Juice Shop

I'd suggest you to download for example a VM of Damn Vulnerable Web Application (https://github.com/digininja/DVWA), learn and practice the attacks, and then try to protect the host from these attacks to prevent or limit access to the system.

I deployed a Damn Vulnerable Web Application (DVWA) for you, I DM'ed the url and creds. It's a controlled sandbox, intentionally vulnerable app for you to try out your hackerman skills. Go nuts, have fun dude.

For app security check out the damn vulnerable web app: https://github.com/digininja/DVWA

A fresh install laptop is probably going to be a frustrating first place to start as it is unlikely to be exposing any services for you to scan or test. You could install some vulnerable services, like the damn vulnerable web application here which has good setup instructions and many, many walkthroughs.

Configure Sites and Test 1. Use WebGoat as a Test Site To evaluate the effectiveness of SafeLine, we use WebGoat as the testing platform. WebGoat is a security education tool specifically designed to demonstrate and learn about web application security vulnerabilities. You can find WebGoat here: https://github.com/WebGoat/WebGoat

OWASP WebGoat

WebGoat and Juice Shop are two "deliberately insecure" applications containing hundreds of security vulnerabilities for you to find and exploit, including SQL injections. Both projects provide extensive educational material to guide you.

Click Save and then Run. If your codebase doesn’t have an OWASP critical bug, the pipeline should execute successfully. To enforce a fail on this OWASP scan, use a codebase with known vulnerabilities like WebGoat and you’ll see the OWASP scanner in action.

Bro, i recommend you to create your own labs using vmware or virtualbox. There are so many VM images out there that was created for educational purposes. For example https://www.vulnhub.com/ has multiple VM images. You can test your skill by downloading and importing to your Virtual platform. Also, take consider to solve all problems in WebGoat and DVWA images.

I highly recommend studying for more than just the cert. Get comfortable with cybersecurity itself. My biggest recommendation would be WebGoat. This also works great alongside studying for the sec+. https://owasp.org/www-project-webgoat/ Completely free and intentionally built to be insecure and help you learn and apply security concepts and use security tools. Also try https://tryhackme.com/ -> Both free.

I'm using latest version which you can find at https://github.com/WebGoat/WebGoat/releases/tag/v2023.4
