Common Penetration Testing Vulnerabilities

Critical security issues we identify in penetration testing Web3 applications

Frontend Security Issues

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Unvalidated user input rendering in React components, potentially modifying transaction data.

Client-Side Bypasses

Access control checks that can be bypassed through browser developer tools.

Hardcoded Secrets

API keys, private keys, or sensitive endpoints exposed in frontend bundles.

Backend & API Issues

Injection Attacks

SQL injection, NoSQL injection, and command injection through unvalidated inputs.

Authentication Flaws

Weak JWT implementations, session management issues, and privilege escalation.

CORS Misconfigurations

Overly permissive CORS policies allowing unauthorized cross-origin requests.

Penetration Testing Methodology

Systematic approach following industry standards and Web3-specific techniques

1

Reconnaissance

Information gathering, asset discovery, and attack surface mapping.

2

Scanning

Vulnerability scanning, port enumeration, and service identification.

3

Exploitation

Active exploitation of identified vulnerabilities and attack paths.

4

Post-Exploitation

Privilege escalation, lateral movement, and impact assessment.

5

Reporting

Detailed findings with remediation steps and risk prioritization.

Critical XSS Prevention

Initia Protocol Frontend Audit

In our recent collaboration with Pashov Audit Group for Initia Protocol, we identified a high-severity XSS vulnerability in the penetration testing frontend. Unvalidated user input was being rendered directly in React components, which could have allowed attackers to:

  • • Execute malicious scripts in users' browsers
  • • Modify transaction data before signing
  • • Steal sensitive user information and wallet data
  • • Redirect users to phishing sites

By identifying and fixing this vulnerability before launch, we helped secure user flows and protect sensitive data for thousands of potential users.

Test Your Security Before Attackers Do

Comprehensive penetration testing to identify and fix vulnerabilities across your entire Web3 infrastructure.
