Use it when building or reviewing HTTP/HTTPS endpoints, REST APIs, GraphQL APIs, WebSocket services, SPAs, or any server-side code that processes untrusted user input. Also load it for security audits, penetration testing guidance, secure code review, or vulnerability assessments. Triggers on: "security check", "vuln", "injection", "XSS", "CSRF", "auth", "session", "pentest", "OWASP", "CVE", "secure coding", "์ทจ์ฝ์ ", "์น ๋ณด์", "๋ณด์ ์ ๊ฒ", "์ํ์ด์ฝ๋ฉ".

Web Security Skill
Comprehensive web vulnerability coverage for 2026, consolidating OWASP
Top 10:2025, OWASP API Security Top 10:2023, KISA/MOIS Korean government
standards, and emerging threats (prototype pollution, cache poisoning,
HTTP smuggling, LLM prompt injection, and more).
How to use this skill
- Before writing any security-sensitive code, check the Quick Decision Matrix below.
- During security analysis passes, run the checklist in
references/checklist.md.
- Any Prohibited Pattern found = Critical halt โ stop and report immediately.
- For deep exploit detail, remediation code, or test payloads, open
references/vuln-catalog.md and read only the section you need.
- Map every finding to severity, CWE ID, and OWASP reference in your report.
- For automated scanning, run
scanner.py (dynamic) and web_quick_scan.sh
(TLS/headers/ports). Each check maps to the W-IDs in this file.

Prohibited Patterns โ Critical Halt on Detection
Seeing any of these = stop everything, report as Critical STRIDE finding:
SQL / NoSQL
- [AUTO] String concatenation into SQL: f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE id={user_input}"
- [AUTO] ORM raw() with format args: Model.objects.raw(f"... {val}")
Command / Code Execution
- subprocess(shell=True, args=user_input)
- os.system(user_input), eval(user_input), exec(user_input)
- Function(user_input) in JavaScript
Session / Auth
- Session token in LocalStorage or SessionStorage
- Session cookie without HttpOnly flag
- JWT with algorithm "none"
- JWT HS256 shared secret used across service boundaries
File Handling
- File upload stored inside web root with execute permissions retained
- Download path built from user input without normalization + allowlist
Transport
- HTTP endpoint that accepts plaintext where HTTPS is expected
- No HSTS header on HTTPS endpoints
Access Control
- Admin endpoint reachable from public internet without IP restriction
- CORS: Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * with Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
- OAuth redirect_uri validated by prefix match (startsWith) not exact match
Cryptography
- Passwords hashed with MD5, SHA-1, or unsalted SHA-256/SHA-512
- AES-ECB mode for any encryption
- Hard-coded secrets / API keys / passwords in source code
Error Handling
- Stack traces, internal file paths, or version strings in production responses
- XML parser with external entity processing enabled (XXE)
Deserialization
- Java ObjectInputStream / Python pickle.loads from untrusted source
- YAML.load() (PyYAML) instead of YAML.safe_load()

| Third-party dependency addition | W-003, W-008, W-020 | |
| Cryptography / token / password storage | W-004, W-032, W-036 | |
| Error handling / exception paths | W-010, W-029 | |
| JavaScript / Node.js specific code | W-049, W-050, W-051 | |

| Cookie / session management | W-035, W-038, W-039, W-048 | |
| Redirect or URL handling | W-001 (SSRF/open redirect) | |
Severity โ Action Protocol
| Severity | Required action |
|---|
| Critical | Halt. Log THREAT_MODEL_ERROR. Run STRIDE 7-step. No merge until resolved. |
| High | Report at end of current analysis pass. Block PR merge until resolved or risk explicitly accepted in plan.md. |
| Medium | Batch-report. Log in plan.md Security Debt. Resolve before next sprint. |
| Low | Log in plan.md Security Baseline Checklist. |
