Vulnerability-oriented Testing for RESTful APIs

Introduces VOAPI2, a vulnerability-oriented testing framework for RESTful APIs built on the observation that the vulnerability class latent in an endpoint correlates with the functionality its parameter names advertise. Keyword-driven functionality inference guides generation of stateful request sequences carrying targeted payloads, confirmed by feedback-based testing; the tool found 7 zero-day and 19 known bugs across seven real-world APIs, 23 of them receiving CVE IDs.
