As a front end developer, I’ve scoured countless pages of documentation and StackOverflow replies seeking the answer to a problem I’m trying to solve. When the issue stems from a network request or other type of data transfer, these resources have suggested using curl to execute your request.

At StackHawk, our new Validate Finding feature allows you to find and fix your security bugs faster.

Given the widespread use and power of curl commands, we can use the data provided from StackHawk to recreate a potential attack on our application.

Using this knowledge, you can protect your input fields, write tests against malicious data requests and have the peace of mind knowing how your web application can be attacked.
