Defending Go Applications Against Command Injection
A Command Injection vulnerability arises when an application concatenates untrusted data into a string that executes shell or operating system commands. This vulnerability allows hackers to execute unexpected commands on the target system with the privileges of the vulnerable application, potentially leading to complete control over the application. This Defending GO Applications Against Command Injection Skill Lab provides a virtual environment containing a vulnerable application with its complete source code, enabling developers to train in identifying and mitigating Command Injection vulnerabilities.
