performing-soap-web-service-security-testing Performs security testing of SOAP web services by analyzing WSDL definitions and testing for XML injection, XXE, WS-Security bypass, SOAPAction spoofing, and XPath injection. Use when assessing a SOAP/WSDL-based API endpoint for XML-related vulnerabilities during a penetration test.

Más de este repositorio abusing-dpapi-for-credential-access Extract and decrypt Windows DPAPI-protected secrets (Credential Manager, browser logins/cookies, Wi-Fi credentials, KeePass keys) online or offline using SharpDPAPI, SharpChrome, Mimikatz, or Impacket's dpapi.py, including domain-wide decryption via the DPAPI backup key. Use during authorized red-team credential-access engagements after gaining a foothold or when triaging DPAPI blobs pulled from a host.
abusing-shadow-credentials-for-privesc Take over Active Directory accounts by writing attacker-controlled public keys to msDS-KeyCredentialLink (Shadow Credentials) with pyWhisker, Whisker, or Certipy, then authenticate via PKINIT to recover the target's NT hash without a password reset. Use when BloodHound shows GenericWrite/GenericAll/AddKeyCredentialLink over a target, as a stealthier alternative to ForceChangePassword, during authorized red-team engagements.
acquiring-disk-image-with-dd-and-dcfldd Create forensically sound bit-for-bit disk images with dd or dcfldd on a Linux forensic workstation, preserving evidence integrity through hash verification (MD5/SHA) during acquisition. Use when imaging a suspect drive, USB device, or memory card for investigation, preserving volatile disk evidence during incident response, or producing a verified copy for legal or law-enforcement proceedings before any destructive analysis.

Performing SOAP Web Service Security Testing
Overview
SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) web services remain widely deployed in enterprise environments, financial systems, healthcare, and government integrations. Security testing of SOAP services involves analyzing WSDL (Web Services Description Language) definitions to understand available methods, testing for XML-based injection attacks (XXE, XPath injection, XML bombs), evaluating WS-Security implementation correctness, SOAPAction header spoofing, and assessing authentication and authorization controls. Unlike REST APIs, SOAP services use XML envelopes and often implement complex security standards that can be misconfigured.
When to Use
When conducting security assessments that involve performing soap web service security testing
When following incident response procedures for related security events
When performing scheduled security testing or auditing activities
When validating security controls through hands-on testing
Prerequisites
Target SOAP web service endpoint URL
WSDL file or URL access for the service
SoapUI or ReadyAPI for structured testing
Burp Suite with SOAP extensions for interception
Python 3.8+ with zeep and lxml libraries
Authorization to perform security testing
Testing Methodology
Phase 1: WSDL Reconnaissance
"""SOAP Web Service Security Testing Tool
Analyzes WSDL definitions and tests SOAP endpoints for
common vulnerabilities including XXE, injection, and
WS-Security misconfigurations.
