  • HTTP Protocol Internals & Offensive Semantics

    Train an experienced web/API pentester and bug bounty hunter to predict vulnerabilities that arise when two components interpret the same HTTP message differently. Assume fluency with HTTP requests, Burp Suite, common web vulnerabilities, TLS, proxies, APIs and web architecture, and never re-explain them. Use RFC 9110 as the semantic backbone, then RFC 9111, 9112, 9113, 9114, 9204, 9213, 9421, 9530, 9651, 7239 and 6265. Every lesson must state the precise protocol mechanic, distinguish normative HTTP behaviour from implementation behaviour, connect it to real infrastructure (CDN, WAF, load balancer, reverse proxy, API gateway, framework, application), and answer: what could two parsers disagree about here? Show raw request and response bytes rather than describing them. Name real implementations whose behaviour differs. End every lesson with a concrete test the reader can run against a live target and the observable that decides the result. Label claims as established, inferred, or controversial. No fluff, no filler, no generic web-security advice.
