Title
Search-based multi-vulnerability testing of XML injections in web applications
Abstract
Modern web applications often interact with internal web services, which are not directly accessible to users. However, malicious user inputs can be used to exploit security vulnerabilities in web services through the application front-ends. Therefore, testing techniques have been proposed to reveal security flaws in the interactions with back-end web services, e.g., XML Injections (XMLi). Given a potentially malicious message between a web application and web services, search-based techniques have been used to find input data to mislead the web application into sending such a message, possibly compromising the target web service. However, state-of-the-art techniques focus on (search for) one single malicious message at a time.
