Join us for a How to (FLOSS)Hack tutorial, which will introduce several common classes of web application vulnerabilities such as XSS, SQL injection, and XML External Entities flaws. The goal of the session is to bring novice FLOSSHack participants up to speed on how to identify new vulnerabilities that are likely to appear in the target software for this week's FLOSSHack. FLOSSHack is an experimental workshop project designed to bring together those who want to learn more about "hacking" (secure programming and application penetration testing) with those who are in need of low cost or pro bono security auditing.

NOTE: For best results, please bring a laptop to participate in the hands-on exercises.

More details to come!

The Portland Chapter of the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) will be hosting an introduction to OWASP Juice Shop [https://github.com/bkimminich/juice-shop]. OWASP Juice Shop is an intentionally insecure web application for security trainings written entirely in JavaScript which encompasses the entire OWASP Top Ten [https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_Top_Ten_Project] and other severe security flaws. The session will provide a top level overview of the Juice Shop playground and how to get started with it, as well as an opportunity for attendees to team up to teach and learn from each other in a fun Capture The Flag competition.

David Quisenberry (@dmqpdx16) will be facilitating the session. He's a developer with Daylight Studio and explorer of application security issues.

Topic - Secure Code Warrior Tournament Study Session. We'll cover how to register for our upcoming tournament, cover the game rules, navigate through the menus and do a few practice challenges. Let's be new to this together! This meeting will also be recorded and posted to the PDX OWASP YouTube channel.

Host: Samuel Lemly
