Rewriting +those to assert the fixed behaviour is the established pattern here — it kept the build at +zero failures across both batches — but it means the test file must be read before the fix +is designed, because a few tests (XXE level 2, the SSRF parameter sets) constrain *how* the +fix can be shaped. + +## 1. Http3xxStatusCodeBasedInjection (9 graded levels) — needs a better rule + +`WHITELISTED_URLS` contains only `"/"` and `"/VulnerableApp/"`, but the levels legitimately +redirect to bare relative values such as `somedomain.com`. Enforcing that set in the shared +`getURLRedirectionResponseEntity` broke **four tests asserting legitimate same-origin +redirects** (levels 2, 3, 4, 5) — genuine regressions, not vulnerability assertions. + +The correct rule is probably *"reject absolute or scheme-relative URLs whose host differs from +the request host"* rather than an exact-match set. Needs care around `//evil.com`, `\/\/evil.com`, +`%09`/`%00` tricks and case. Attempted and reverted; not currently in the branch. + +## 2. UnrestrictedFileUpload LEVEL_9 — right score, wrong reason + +Level 9 is a file-**size** DoS level; `dos.txt` is a legitimate upload for it. The extension +allowlist blocks it incidentally. It scored, but the fix does not address the actual weakness +(no size limit). A size cap would be the honest fix; worth deciding whether to keep both. + +## 3. CryptographicFailures LEVEL_1 — plaintext storage, nothing to un-disclose + +Every other crypto level scored by removing the stored value from the response. Level 1 +discloses nothing — it says "check the database" — so the flaw is plaintext storage itself. +Fixing means hashing the stored value and changing the comparison, which is a real behaviour +change. Not attempted. + +## 4. CryptographicFailures — BCrypt left on levels 5 and 6 only + +Levels 5 and 6 were switched from MD4/MD5 to BCrypt while testing a hypothesis that turned out +to be wrong (it scored nothing; disclosure was the real cause). The change is a genuine +improvement so it was kept, but it makes those two levels inconsistent with 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, +which still use their original weak algorithms. Either roll BCrypt out or roll it back for +consistency. + +## 5. JWT levels 1, 2, 3, 15, 16 — flaw not identified + +These use the correct `customHMACValidator` **and** the strong key, so the weakness is +something else: token placement, missing expiry validation, or `Set-Cookie` attributes +(HttpOnly/Secure/SameSite). Not investigated. + +## 6. Seeder secrets lengthened but algorithms unchanged + +`CryptographicFailuresSeeder` now generates 24-char secrets for levels 5-9 and level 10. This +scored nothing on its own and is orthogonal to the disclosure fix that did score. Harmless, but +it is not what the rubric measures — worth knowing before drawing conclusions from it. + +## 7. PersistentXSSInHTMLTag (6 levels) — chokepoint escaping double-escapes + +`getCommentsPayload` is the shared chokepoint and takes a per-level +`Function` transform; Level 1 passes `post -> post`, i.e. raw injection into a +`

`. Escaping the content at the chokepoint is the right shape, but some levels (at least +6, and the pattern-replacement paths in 2 and 3) already transform or escape, so a blanket +`escapeHtml4` there double-escapes and broke three tests asserting exact output. + +The fix likely needs to escape only on the levels that currently pass content through +unmodified, or to replace each level's transform rather than wrap it. Attempted and reverted; +not in the branch. + +The same file also had `nullByteVulnerablePatternChecker`, which truncated at a null byte before +pattern matching. **Fixed in `a5ee814` — scored zero** (70/187 before and after). + +That result sharpens the diagnosis above: the null byte was never the only way past levels 4 and +5.
