AutoEG: Exploiting Known Third-Party Vulnerabilities in Black-Box Web Applications
Large-scale web applications are widely deployed with complex third-party components, inheriting security risks arising from component vulnerabilities. Security assessment is therefore required to determine whether such known vulnerabilities remain practically exploitable in real applications. Penetration testing is a widely adopted approach that validates exploitability by launching concrete attacks against known vulnerabilities in real-world black-box systems. However, existing approaches often fail to automatically generate reliable exploits, limiting their effectiveness in practical security assessment. This limitation mainly stems from two issues: (1) precisely triggering vulnerabili...
