Course 1

A01: Broken Access Control

5 lessons

17 practices

This course addresses flaws where improper enforcement of access restrictions allows unauthorized users to access or modify sensitive data or functionality, such as paste snippets or administrative pages, due to unverified input or missing role checks.

Course 2

A02: Cryptographic Failures

4 lessons

11 practices

This course explores vulnerabilities caused by improper cryptographic implementations or lack of encryption, leading to sensitive data exposure. You’ll learn how attackers exploit weak cryptography and how to securely protect secrets, passwords, and sensitive information.

Course 3

A03: Injection

4 lessons

14 practices

This course demonstrates how injection flaws occur when untrusted data is used to construct queries or commands, and how parameterization or input validation can mitigate these risks in our pastebin application.

Course 4

A04: Insecure Design

5 lessons

14 practices

This course explores design flaws that lead to security vulnerabilities in our pastebin application—from insecure credential recovery to flawed business logic and missing audit trails.

Course 5

A05: Security Misconfiguration

4 lessons

12 practices

This course highlights configuration errors—from leftover sample endpoints and directory listing to detailed error messages —that can expose the pastebin application to attackers.
