Issue 222: Attackers exploiting APIs faster than ever, DVGA walkthrough, Twitter outage
Brief
This week, we have a report on how attackers are exploiting APIs faster than previously based on research into over 650 API-related vulnerabilities and a walkthrough guide into DVGA , a vulnerable GraphQL application. We also have further coverage of the Twitter API (this time an outage) and, finally, views from Dana Epp on the new OWASP API Security Top 10.
We also have news of not one but two events coming up in June.
Report: Attackers are exploiting APIs faster than previously
First up this week, we have an article from Help Net Security discussing how attackers exploit API vulnerabilities faster than previously thought. The research comes from Wallarm, who analyzed 350,000 vulnerability disclosures to find 650 API-specific vulnerabilities.
