Thank you! We have written a web scanner and intercepting proxy called Vega, it's in beta. It's free and open source, you should check it out. It's really not possible for one magic automated tool to check for all of the Owasp Top 10 issues (#3, #7..). For comprehensive coverage, you will need to take a hybrid automated/manual approach. We're working on a new release and looking for feedback, so I recommend you grab the develop branch from github (for now) to see some of the newest features. We'll put up a proper build soon. Download the beta build: http://www.subgraph.com Source: http://github.com/subgraph/Vega Detailed write-up in February's (IN)Secure magazine: http://www.net-security.org/dl/insecure/INSECURE-Mag-33.pdf In the case of Windows, if you (or anyone) ping me directly with your platform details I can give you a build. -- David Mirza Ahmad <[email protected]> | @attractr Subgraph | @subgraph Vega, the Open Source Web Security Platform http://www.subgraph.com E73B E35A 0D3A FC28 E5A9 5266 21EB 2FBC 1C84 0AA5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This list is sponsored by: Information Assurance Certification Review Board Prove to peers and potential employers without a doubt that you can actually do a proper penetration test.
