XPath Injection Demo

🚨 What is XPath Injection? 🚨

XPath Injection is a vulnerability that allows attackers to manipulate XPath queries, often used in XML-based systems, to retrieve, modify, or delete sensitive data! πŸ”

🧐 How Does It Work?

Attackers can inject malicious input into an XPath query that is used to interact with XML data. By manipulating the query structure, they can bypass authentication or retrieve data that’s not meant to be accessed. The vulnerability exists when user input is directly inserted into an XPath query without proper sanitization.
