As Web Applications become more popular nowadays, we have a greater need to keep them secure.
Although there are many vulnerability scanners, when developing these tools, developers should try them out for a start.
In addition, they also need to know how well each works tool which scans for vulnerabilities.
At present, there are few or no such applications for testing such tools.
There are also deliberately vulnerable applications on the market, which are intended for this use but therefore delay their scalability because adding new vulnerabilities is quite difficult.
So developers resort to creation of their own vulnerable applications, which is quite a pain.
The VulnerableApp has been created with these factors in mind. The VulnerableApp accepts extensions even by the user himself and it is easy for someone to understand its usage.
While the resolution of the above issue requires adding various vulnerabilities, so it becomes a very good platform to learn various vulnerabilities related to important security issues.
Future Goal
Going further, this application can become a database for vulnerabilities. So in the future, it can be used to host CTFs and can also become a benchmark for the tools vulnerability scan.
Information about the installation and use of the application, you will find here.
