A lot of tweets today informed me about launch of Damn Vulnerable Web App (DVWA) which is basically an aid for security professionals to test their skills and tools and help web developers better understand the processes of securing web applications.

I had an old list of tools/plug-ins/utilities etc which can be helpful while playing with DVWA and I'd like to share the same for you to learn WebApp Security better.

You should check out http://www.mavensecurity.com/dojo.php if you haven't done so already. Available as a VirtualBox or Vmware image, boot it up and you have all the vulnerable applications and tools you mentioned in this post set up. Just start hacking :)

Best regards @kozmic
