About This Course

⌄

This course provides an in-depth, hands-on exploration of one of the most powerful and widely exploited web vulnerabilities. This training teaches learners how SSRF attacks work, how attackers manipulate server-side behavior, and how to identify, exploit, and mitigate SSRF risks in modern applications and cloud environments. Through practical labs, real-world exploitation examples, and guided methodologies, you’ll learn how to craft SSRF payloads, bypass filters, pivot to internal networks, access metadata services, and evaluate how SSRF can lead to severe security breaches.

The course emphasizes both offensive and defensive skills to help you understand and secure against SSRF in complex architectures.

What You’ll Learn

⌄

  • Fundamentals of SSRF and how server-side requests can be manipulated

  • Common SSRF use cases, attack paths, and real-world exploitation scenarios

  • Identifying SSRF vulnerabilities in APIs, microservices, and cloud apps

  • Crafting SSRF payloads and bypassing input validation and filters

  • Pivoting techniques into internal networks and restricted resources

  • Exploiting cloud metadata services and understanding cloud-specific risks

  • Mitigation strategies, secure coding practices, and architectural defenses

  • Detection, monitoring, and incident response considerations
