An Analysis and Classification of Vulnerabilities in Web-Based Application Development

Nowadays, web vulnerability is a critical issue in web applications. Web developers develop web applications, but sometimes they are not very well-versed with security concerns, thereby creating loopholes for the vulnerabilities. If a web application is developed without considering security, it is harmful for the client and the company. Different types of vulnerabilities encounter during the web application development process. Therefore, vulnerability identification is a crucial and critical task from a web application development perspective. It is vigorous to secure them from the earliest development life cycle process. In this paper, we have analyzed and classified vulnerabilities related to web application security during the development phases. Here, the concern is to identify a weakness, countermeasure, confidentiality impact, access complexity, and severity level, which affect the web application security.
