What happened

PortSwigger Research feed aggregating web security research published from 2023 through 2026. Topics include authentication and SAML parser bypasses, HTTP request smuggling and desynchronization, cookie and WAF bypasses, SSRF and URL validation bypasses, cache poisoning, CSS/XSS data exfiltration, race conditions, access-control flaws, token forgery, and browser or parser discrepancies. The collection is primarily research and offensive testing guidance rather than a single confirmed vulnerability; specific affected products and CVEs require review of individual articles.
