  2. List of HTTP status codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes

    This class of status code indicates the client must take additional action to complete the request. Many of these status codes are used in URL redirection. [2]A user agent may carry out the additional action with no user interaction only if the method used in the second request is GET or HEAD.

  3. Session hijacking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_hijacking

    In particular, it is used to refer to the theft of a magic cookie used to authenticate a user to a remote server. It has particular relevance to web developers, as the HTTP cookies used to maintain a session on many websites can be easily stolen by an attacker using an intermediary computer or with access to the saved cookies on the victim's ...

  4. Session fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_fixation

    This type of attack is similar to a cross-site cookie attack except that, it does not rely on the vulnerability of the user's browser. Rather, it relies on the fact that wildcard cookies can be set by a subdomain and, that those cookies may affect other subdomains. Scenario: A web site www.example.com hands out subdomains to untrusted third parties

  5. HTTP cookie - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie

    HTTP cookies (also called web cookies, Internet cookies, browser cookies, or simply cookies) are small blocks of data created by a web server while a user is browsing a website and placed on the user's computer or other device by the user's web browser. Cookies are placed on the device used to access a website, and more than one cookie may be ...

  6. Cross-site request forgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery

    Security of this technique is based on the assumption that only JavaScript running on the client side of an HTTPS connection to the server that initially set the cookie will be able to read the cookie's value. JavaScript running from a rogue file or email should not be able to successfully read the cookie value to copy into the custom header.

  7. Selenium (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selenium_(software)

    Selenium Grid is a server that allows tests to use web browser instances running on remote machines. With Selenium Grid, one server acts as the central hub. Tests contact the hub to obtain access to browser instances. The hub has a list of servers that provide access to browser instances (WebDriver nodes), and lets tests use these instances.

  8. SYN cookies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SYN_cookies

    (Note: since m must be encoded using 3 bits, the server is restricted to sending up to 8 unique values for m when SYN cookies are in use.) When a client sends back a TCP ACK packet to the server in response to the server's SYN+ACK packet, the client must (according to the TCP spec) use n+1 in the packet's Acknowledgement number , where n is the ...

  9. Static program analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_program_analysis

    The uses of the information obtained from the analysis vary from highlighting possible coding errors (e.g., the lint tool) to formal methods that mathematically prove properties about a given program (e.g., its behaviour matches that of its specification). Software metrics and reverse engineering can be described as forms of static analysis.
