A Review on 0-day Vulnerability Testing in Web Application

Abstract

In recent year a lot of web applications have been released in the world. At the same time, Zero-Day attacks against web application vulnerabilities have also increased. In such a scenario, it is necessary to make web applications more secure. However checking all web vulnerabilities by manually is very difficult and time-consuming. Therefore, we need a web application vulnerability scanner which is used for detecting security vulnerabilities in web services by underlining the service from the attacker's point of view. Web Application Penetration Testing (WAPT) plays an important role in every modern organization but, if an organization web apps does not properly test and secure then adversaries can compromise your applications, steal organization data and. damage business performance. Unfortunately, many organizations are under an illusion that a web application scanner which they are using will sincerely discover loopholes in their systems. According to research and study, there are different penetration testing tools have provide different performance on vulnerabilities detection. In this paper we have analyze and take survey of the different Zero-day vulnerability, how we can help organizations in testing their web applications in order to build reliable and secure applications.
