This lab simulates a Security Misconfiguration vulnerability found in the Digi Exchange Cyber Range. The challenge includes a Web App developed in Java that fails to implement the security principle of “Validate all Untrusted Input Before Using”.
Using Visual Studio Code, participants will analyze code to identify and mitigate instances of “Failure to universally validate policy constraints”.
