Course Foundation (WEB-300)
The OSWE certification is based on the WEB-300 course, focusing on advanced exploitation of web applications beyond common vulnerabilities. You will learn to perform manual analysis, develop custom exploits, and chain vulnerabilities for full compromise. The goal is to demonstrate the ability to identify and exploit complex web flaws in real-world scenarios.
Core Topics
Master advanced web application security with our comprehensive curriculum:
Advanced SQL Injection
Extract data, bypass filters, and achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) through SQLi.
Authentication & Session Exploits
Exploit flawed authentication logic, session fixation, and session hijacking vulnerabilities.
Serialization & Deserialization
Exploit insecure object handling in languages like Java, PHP, and .NET.
Command Injection & File Uploads
Turn limited injection into full system compromise and bypass upload restrictions to gain shell access.
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) at Scale
Exploit stored and DOM-based XSS, and chain XSS attacks into privilege escalation.
Business Logic & Chaining
Identify flaws in workflows, trust boundaries, and combine multiple low-severity issues into critical compromises.
Exam Structure
48-Hour Exam
A challenging 48-hour practical exam focused on web application exploitation.
RCE & Proof
Exploit multiple web applications, achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE), and document findings.
Professional Report
Submission of a professional penetration test report is required for certification.
Recommended Background
- Strong knowledge of web technologies (PHP, Java, .NET, JavaScript).
- Familiarity with OSCP-level skills.
- Experience with manual exploitation and custom scripting (Python, Burp Suite extensions).
Lab Environment
Sharpen your skills in our dedicated lab environment:
- Hands-on Practice: Experiment with advanced exploitation techniques in a safe, controlled setting.
- Real-World Applications: Target realistic web applications designed to mimic modern security challenges.
