6 Core Disciplines of API & Web Security

Full-coverage manual and automated penetration testing covering modern web frontends, backend APIs, and microservice mesh architectures.

Broken Authorization (BOLA/BFLA) Testing

Testing API endpoints for flawed object-level access controls, privilege escalation, horizontal ID tampering, and unauthorized data leakage.

  • OWASP API1:2023 BOLA vulnerability audits
  • Multi-tenant tenant isolation verification
  • IDOR and administrative endpoint fuzzing

Authentication & JWT Token Security

Auditing OAuth 2.0 flows, OpenID Connect (OIDC), JWT algorithm confusion attacks, token replay, and weak session revocation.

  • JWT secret cracking & signature bypass checks
  • OAuth redirect URI validation and state checks
  • Brute-force & credential stuffing defense

GraphQL & REST Endpoint Fuzzing

Deep inspection of GraphQL query depth, introspection abuse, rate-limiting bypass, and REST parameter pollution exploits.

  • GraphQL denial-of-service query depth limits
  • Schema introspection exposure analysis
  • Mass assignment & hidden parameter discovery

Business Logic & Payment Flow VAPT

Manual offensive simulations targeting multi-step workflows, price tampering, race conditions, and coupon/discount abuse.

  • Concurrency & race condition exploitation
  • Negative quantity and currency parameter manipulation
  • Workflow sequence bypass auditing

Injection & Remote Code Execution Defense

Penetration testing against SQL injection, NoSQL injection, Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), and command injection.

  • Cloud metadata (IMDSv2) SSRF defense
  • Blind SQLi and template injection (SSTI) testing
  • Header injection & HTTP request smuggling

Safe-to-Host Attestation & SAR Report

Issuing developer-friendly remediation guidance, verified re-testing, and the official Safe-to-Host certificate for regulatory compliance.

  • Detailed CVSS v3.1 scored vulnerability reports
  • Exact curl reproduction commands and code fixes
  • Official Safe-to-Host digital certificate

5-Stage API & Web Penetration Testing Roadmap

A zero-disruption methodology following OWASP WSTG and NIST SP 800-115 standards.

1
STAGE 1: SCOPING & RECONNAISSANCE

Endpoint Discovery & Threat Modeling

Parsing OpenAPI/Swagger specs, Postman collections, and spidering application attack surfaces.

2
STAGE 2: AUTHENTICATION & ACCESS AUDIT

Privilege & Role Matrix Testing

Testing multi-role user accounts against horizontal and vertical privilege escalation vectors.

3
STAGE 3: ACTIVE INJECTION & FUZZING

Automated & Manual Exploitation

Fuzzing all parameters, headers, and payloads against injection, SSRF, and logic flaws.

4
STAGE 4: BUSINESS LOGIC SIMULATION

Workflow Integrity Validation

Attempting out-of-order execution, race conditions, and financial workflow tampering.

5
STAGE 5: REMEDIATION & ATTESTATION

Retesting & Safe-to-Host Sign-Off

Validating developer patches and issuing the official Lumiverse Safe-to-Host certificate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Key details regarding scoping, timelines, evidence handling, and deliverables.

We typically request OpenAPI / Swagger specifications, Postman collections, endpoint documentation, and test credentials for each user role.
We can test either. We recommend starting in staging/UAT for deep intrusive testing, followed by non-destructive verification in production.
We coordinate IP allowlisting to test backend application security controls directly, and then verify WAF rule effectiveness separately.
