A race condition attack is one of the most dangerous
and underestimated attacks in
modern web applications.
Many people claim that this attack is
not exploitable in real world applications, but
they are wrong.
In this course, you will learn how a race
condition attack works.
You will see how an attacker who has
$1,000 in his bank account can transfer
more than 1,000 from his
bank account as a result of a race condition
attack.
You also see how the attacker
can reuse a one-time discount code many
times as a result of a race condition
attack.
This attacks will be presented step
by step in the demos so that you can
see how race condition exploitation Works in
practice.
What's more you will learn how to check if your
web applications are vulnerable to race condition
attacks? And you will also learn how
to prevent this attacks from happening.
Last but not least I will discuss case studies
of award-winning race condition attacks.
You will see that some of the greatest companies in
the world such as Facebook Starbucks and hacker
one where vulnerable to this attacks
and fortunately for this companies this bugs
were detected and reported by ethical
hackers.
Okay, basically this is it. And now
without further delay. Let me jump
to the next clip and let me show you the
first attack in this course.
