Injection flaws
Jesper Ottosen
Jesper Ottosen
contributed:
<div>Injections are about maliciously putting things where they’re not supposed to go. Originally, for input fields, like text boxes or forms, where someone could inject malicious code. <br><br>One of the most famous examples is from the classic XKCD comic “Exploits of a Mom”, where a child is registered at school with a name that includes a bit of code, and it accidentally causes the school’s database to break. But it's not just about forms anymore. Prompt injections are similar in nature. Anywhere a user can put stuff is prone to injection flaws.<br><br><strong>Tip:</strong> Always validate and sanitize anything users can send.</div> image

Supply Chain Attack
Jesper Ottosen
Jesper Ottosen
contributed:
<div>Your web app will depend on libraries and third-party components outside your control. For example, Social media (SoMe) trackers and CSS or similar plugins. Over time, they might be insecure or outdated. This is known as a supply chain attack, when something you already trust becomes the way attackers get in. <br><br><strong>Tip:</strong> Keep a list of them and the last working version on your end. <br><br><strong>Examples:</strong> One famous example was log4j and another was SolarWinds. </div> image
