Advance. Exploit. Harden. — A next‑gen offensive web security program
This paid, hands‑on course focuses purely on advanced offensive web attack vectors used against modern applications — then teaches you how to defend against them. Expect realistic labs, PoCs, and a capstone that chains multiple vectors into a real compromise.
Course price
Paid course. Seats limited. Acceptance is merit‑based.
Advanced Offensive Modules — sneak peek
These are the core attack vectors you will exploit and defend against during Term II. Each module includes a hands‑on lab, tooling workshop, and secure hardening session.
Prototype Pollution
Abuse JavaScript prototype chains to inject properties (e.g., escalate privileges, bypass logic). Lab: pollute request bodies to flip admin flags and chain to an account takeover.
Server‑Side Template Injection (SSTI → RCE)
Escape template sandboxes to execute code on the server. Lab: identify template engines, craft payloads, and obtain remote execution.
DOM & Client‑Side XSS
Exploit insecure client scripts in modern SPAs and bypass CSPs. Lab: DOM sink discovery and PoC in a single‑page app.
SSRF & Cloud Metadata Exfiltration
Use server requests to reach internal services and cloud metadata endpoints. Lab: SSRF → metadata → cloud pivot.
Unsafe Deserialization
Exploit deserialization in Node/Java/Python apps for gadget chains and code execution. Lab: construct and deliver a safe PoC gadget chain.
Advanced SQL Injection (Blind & Second‑Order)
From time‑based blind exfiltration to stored SQLi that triggers later. Lab: blind extraction and stealth exfil techniques.
HTTP Request Smuggling & Desync
Poison caches, bypass auth, and smuggle requests across proxy stacks. Lab: two‑layer proxy desync leading to privilege escalation.
OAuth / SSO Token & Redirect Abuse
Exploit misconfigured OAuth flows and redirect URIs to hijack sessions or impersonate users. Lab: PKCE misconfig testing and practical fixes.
Subdomain Takeover
Claim orphaned DNS/hosting records and serve malicious content for real account takeover. Lab: discovery and safe takeover PoC.
TOTP & 2FA Weaknesses
Rate‑limit bypasses, predictable seeds, and session fixation attacks against 2FA implementations — ethical exploitation and mitigation lab.
Cross‑Protocol Pivoting (SSRF → Redis/SMTP/etc.)
Leverage web bugs to talk to internal protocols and escalate impact. Lab: SSRF → internal datastore write → RCE.
Side‑Channel & Timing Attacks
Use subtle timing differences to leak secrets and perform blind key recovery. Lab: recover secrets with a timing oracle and harden comparisons.
Dependency & Supply‑Chain Attacks
Typosquatting, poisoned packages, and CI compromise — replicate and defend against supply chain threats in a safe lab.

Who this course is for
No prior skill is required — this course takes motivated learners from zero to offensive web fundamentals and advanced exploitation chains. Developers, sysadmins, security students, and junior pentesters will find immediate value. If you already have experience, this course will level you up with practical, real‑world PoCs and cloud pivot strategies.
What you will benefit from
- Hands‑on PoC creation and exploit chaining exercises
- Tool mastery (Burp, custom scripts, cloud metadata tooling)
- Defensive hardening workshops for each attack vector
- Capstone project and a shareable micro‑certificate
- Access to labs 24/7 and cohort Discord support
