Full Web Security Audit & OWASP ASVS Compliance (27 Findings) Comprehensive web application penetration test and vulnerability assessment for a production hosting infrastructure. A production hosting provider required a full-scope security audit to evaluate their attack surface, verify compliance with the OWASP Application Security Verification Standard (ASVS Level 2), and uncover critical business-logic vulnerabilities before public deployment. I executed a hybrid security assessment combining automated reconnaissance with deep manual exploitation using Burp Suite. Every vulnerability was manually validated to eliminate false positives and scored using standard CVSS 3.1 metrics.
From a single comprehensive audit, I uncovered 27 reproducible findings:
2 High Severity: Exposed database backups and critical Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) execution vectors.
8 Medium Severity: CORS misconfigurations, XML-RPC brute-force paths, and authentication bypass vectors.
10 Low Severity: Unrestricted directory listings and insecure header configurations.
7 Informational: Information disclosure and software version leaks.
