A user resets their password with an email containing a Kelvin symbol instead of a 'K'. This simple trick bypasses your security. Here's how to stop it.
#1about 5 minutes
AI-generated code can introduce security risks
AI tools can generate insecure code by using deprecated APIs, introducing biases like modulo bias, or having incomplete logic, requiring a manual security review.
#2about 11 minutes
Handling character encoding to prevent spoofing attacks
Visually similar Unicode characters can be used to spoof identities in attacks, which can be mitigated by using ordinal string comparison instead of culture-invariant comparison.
#3about 12 minutes
Mitigating SQL, command, and path traversal injections
Untrusted user input can lead to various injection attacks, which are prevented by using parameterized SQL queries, the ArgumentList property for processes, and robust path validation.
