Re: Application Security testing for DHIS 2

 

Hi dhis devs,

We are looking for testing the application in areas which focus on "CIA
triad" (Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) of DHIS users and
resources. Just wanted to check from DHIS devs if any kind of methodologies
are already inplace for testing the code for below vulnerabilities.
1) Cross-site scripting attacks
2) Broken authentication attacks
3) Injection flaws
4) malicious code

Thanks
Aamer.
