What happened

PortSwigger Research feed covering advanced web security research, including HTTP header injection and CRLF-powered desynchronization, SVG/CSS sanitization bypasses, SAML authentication bypasses, cookie and URL parser discrepancies, cache poisoning, request smuggling, XSS, timing attacks, and AI-assisted security testing. Several posts describe techniques with potentially critical impact, such as authentication bypass, session cookie theft, request desynchronization, and arbitrary JavaScript execution.
