Yes, the thing is that I want to test the redos.py plugin [0] and can't do it with javascript. I need something that runs on the server-side. I cried for help on twitter and some people pointed me to Java, telling me that it is vulnerable. I'll test it out in a bit, need some time to setup tomcat, etc. [0] https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/w3af/browser/trunk/plugins/audit/redos.py > > Carlos Pantelides > > @dev4sec > > > http://seguridad-agile.blogspot.com/ > ________________________________ > From: Andres Riancho <andres.rian...@gmail.com> > To: "w3af-develop@lists.sourceforge.net" > <W3af-develop@lists.sourceforge.net>; w3af-us...@lists.sourceforge.net > Sent: Wednesday, August 1, 2012 3:40 PM > Subject: Re: [W3af-users] Regular expression DoS > > Ping!
