bounds checking -ANSWERS-to set a limit on the amount of data we expect to receive
to set aside storage for that data
*required in most programming languages
* prevents buffer overflows
race conditions -ANSWERS-A type of software development vulnerability that occurs
when multiple processes or multiple threads within a process control or share access to
a particular resource, and the correct handling of that resource depends on the proper
ordering or timing of transactions
input validation -ANSWERS-a type of attack that can occur when we fail to validate the
input to our applications or take steps to filter out unexpected or undesirable content
format string attack -ANSWERS-a type of input validation attacks in which certain print
functions within a programming language can be used to manipulate or view the internal
memory of an application
authentication attack -ANSWERS-A type of attack that can occur when we fail to use
strong authentication mechanisms for our applications
authorization attack -ANSWERS-A type of attack that can occur when we fail to use
authorization best practices for our applications
cryptographic attack -ANSWERS-A type of attack that can occur when we fail to
properly design our security mechanisms when implementing cryptographic controls in
our applications
,client-side attack -ANSWERS-A type of attack that takes advantage of weaknesses in
the software loaded on client machines or one that uses social engineering techniques
to trick us into going along with the attack
XSS (Cross Site Scripting) -ANSWERS-an attack carried out by placing code in the
form of a scripting language into a web page or other media that is interpreted by a
client browser
XSRF (cross-site request forgery) -ANSWERS-an attack in which the attacker places a

particular activity on another web page or application where the user is currently
authenticated
clickjacking -ANSWERS-An attack that takes advantage of the graphical display
capabilities of our browser to trick us into clicking on something we might not otherwise
server-side attack -ANSWERS-A type of attack on the web server that can target
vulnerabilities such as lack of input validation, improper or inadequate permissions, or
extraneous files left on the server from the development process

escalation -ANSWERS-Name the 4 main categories of database security issues
web application analysis tool -ANSWERS-A type of tool that analyzes web pages or

flaws in network protocols, flaws in authentication protocols
arbitrary code execution -ANSWERS-An attack that exploits an applications vulnerability
into allowing the attacker to execute commands on a user's computer.

Privilege Escalation -ANSWERS-An attack that exploits a vulnerability in software to
gain access to resources that the user normally would be restricted from accessing.
* via SQL injection or local issues
validating user inputs -ANSWERS-a security best practice for all software
* the most effective way of mitigating SQL injection attacks
