Description
Summary:Security criteria fixation and analysis for all the web applications developed and deployed on the internet is very much required due to the excess usage of many users accessing the application. The application has to respond in a fraction of nanoseconds for users to remain attached to the application. In this scenario, the need to ensure the basic security requirements of Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability is an important task. To analyze the security requirements penetration testing is being done. The process of manual penetration testing is slowly shifting towards automated testing systems. Security experts are designing automation tools to detect vulnerabilities. This paper deals with binding the known multiple vulnerabilities to find the overall vulnerability of a web application. The impact of the vulnerability is analyzed by combining multiple penetration testing tools which automatically classify the exploit model to gather information using the signature patterns (Regular Expressions). Finally, the exploit information can be viewed in the form of a report so that security patches of the vulnerabilities can be performed.
