OWASP Top 10 2025: a practical one-week authorized testing checklist for web apps
A Rokkhe research post offers a week-long, authorized testing pass against the current OWASP Top 10:2025 list. It warns that teams still using 2021 checklists will miss changes such as the new exceptional-conditions category and the folding of SSRF into broken access control. The guide recommends running tests only on staging environments the tester owns or has written permission to test, using separate accounts for users and admins. The first day focuses on broken access control, with checks for object-level access, admin endpoints, role changes and session replay after logout. The post closes by urging standard fixes such as server-side authorization, parameterized queries, TLS, MFA and actionable alerting.
