# Security Misconfiguration
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
Security misconfiguration vulnerabilities arise from insecure default configurations, incomplete or ad-hoc configurations, open cloud storage, misconfigured HTTP headers, and verbose error messages containing sensitive information. These are among the most common security issues.
|
|
|
|
## Common Issues
|
|
- Default credentials
|
|
- Unnecessary features enabled
|
|
- Directory listing enabled
|
|
- Detailed error messages
|
|
- Outdated software
|
|
- Misconfigured security headers
|
|
- Open cloud storage buckets
|
|
|
|
## Common Attack Vectors
|
|
- Default admin interfaces
|
|
- Configuration files exposed
|
|
- Backup files accessible
|
|
- Development/debug modes enabled
|
|
- Unnecessary services running
|
|
|
|
## Testing Approach
|
|
Test for common misconfigurations, default credentials, exposed configuration files, and security header weaknesses.
|
|
|
|
## Payloads
|
|
See `default-credentials-payloads.txt` and `misconfiguration-paths-payloads.txt` for comprehensive lists of security misconfiguration tests.
