Code Review Lab

Everyone’s talking about AI slop killing bug bounty programs. curl shut theirs down and HackerOne paused the Internet Bug Bounty program because the signal-to-noise ratio isn’t ideal I want to talk about the other side of how AI helps speed up validating and fixing issues when it speeds up root cause analysis by having access to the codebase of a feature when you get a report about it But you still need to know what you’re looking at and that’s exactly why I’ve been practising on Code Review Lab Code review is a muscle so if you’re not actively using it, especially when AI is doing more of the heavy lifting, you start losing the touch Code Review Lab’s bite-sized challenges across difficulty levels (easy to hard) and a range of languages and platforms like Kotlin, Android, GraphQL, web, APIs make it easy to keep that muscle sharp without needing to carve out huge blocks of time If you’re a developer or security engineer, go check it out: https://lnkd.in/gFi87yXc And if you’re looking to upskill your dev or security team on secure code review, the team version is worth a look too.

🔍 Spot the Bug: Can you find the vulnerability? This is a boarding pass preview page from a flight management system. Somewhere in this code, there's a security issue that could let an attacker manipulate what gets displayed Take a look and drop your answer in the comments 👇 If you find it, tell us: - What the vulnerability is - Where exactly it is - How you'd fix it #CyberSecurity #SecureCode #CodeReview #WebSecurity #SpotTheBug #PHP #AppSec #Developer

We've been quiet here lately and that's because we've been heads-down rebuilding. The new codereviewlab.com is live. Same mission, sharper experience: helping engineers build the instinct that catches vulnerabilities before they ship. A few things worth exploring if you haven't yet: 🔍 198 hands-on challenges across web security, injection, authentication, API security, Web3, and mobile based on real production code patterns. No multiple choice. You click the line with the bug. 📚 The Learning Hub now has structured paths for the vulnerabilities that matter most: AI & LLM security, SQL Injection, XSS, Command Injection, and more! 🏆 There's a live leaderboard, a daily challenge, and team onboarding if you want to run this across an engineering org. If you're a developer who cares about what ships, we built this for you. 👉 codereviewlab.com

If your engineers are shipping code without security training, that's a risk sitting in your roadmap right now. We just launched self-serve enterprise access on Code Review Lab so you can get your team hands-on with real-world secure coding challenges without a sales call, a procurement cycle, or a lengthy onboarding. And yes — you can trial our full premium challenge library for up to a month before committing. 🔒 Here's what your team gets: - Challenges built around real vulnerabilities — the kind that actually make it to production - A team dashboard to track progress and identify skill gaps - Challenges tailored to your stack and industry - SSO integration so setup takes minutes, not days Security training that engineers actually want to do — because it’s interactive, practical, and built for how developers think. If you’re a CTO, Engineering Manager, or anyone responsible for your team’s code quality — this is worth 60 seconds of your time. 🔗 Start your free trial: https://lnkd.in/gf7KvbSp

The Code Review Lab community is doing something awesome and we are here for it. 🙌 @OwlHackU just dropped a full walkthrough of one of our challenges on YouTube, check it out below Link: https://lnkd.in/gahDdYxf 🔐 If you've solved a challenge on Code Review Lab, consider recording your walkthrough and posting it to YouTube. We will: - Feature it on the challenge page - Signal boost your channel to our community - Give you credit as a community contributor Whether you breezed through it or had to grind to get there, your thought process is valuable. Seeing how different engineers approach the same vulnerability is genuinely one of the best ways to learn secure coding.

We are extremely proud to announce that Code Review Lab is a Gold sponsor for this year’s VishwaCTF organised by CyberCell VIT All of the members in the winning teams will receive 1 year of premium access to our challenges and Learn modules! With over 3200 participants from 98+ countries, we’re excited to see this partnership with the community grow and inspire the next generation of cybersecurity enthusiasts 🎉 You can register for the CTF here: https://www.vishwactf.com #ctf #codereview #securecoding

Video Walkthrough of Code Review Lab Challenge 📹 A new video is up on @OwlHackU's YouTube channel where they walk you through their methodology and thought process of solving a Python/GraphQL code snippet with a hidden RCE 🔍 We appreciate any and all walkthroughs created by our community, as this helps others learn different approaches and grow their secure coding skills together!

I just completed the Support Tickets challenge on Code Review Lab! 🚀 Highly recommended for improving code quality and best practices! #CodeReviewLab #CodeReview #SecureCoding

You know how to find an XSS during a pentest... but do you know what coding mistakes led to the XSS in the first place? XSS 'sinks' are places in your code where user-controlled input can be executed as code or rendered as HTML. During code review, identifying these sinks is the first step to finding potential XSS vulnerabilities. Our Learn module will help you understand how to identify XSS vulnerabilities during code review, explain how attackers exploit these weaknesses, and provide practical techniques to prevent them. Check it out and learn how to find XSS vulnerabilities during code review and trace how user input data passes through your application.

Join the discussion on ensuring your Java applications are secure against SQL injections. SQL injection is a known issue, and awareness is key. Here are some simple steps: 1. Always validate user input and sanitize data. 2. Use prepared statements and parameterized queries to keep SQL and user data separate. 3. Opt for ORM frameworks like Hibernate in your design, and keep your dependencies updated. 4. Make regular security testing and code reviews part of your routine. Stay proactive and engage your development team with these essential strategies. By focusing on security fundamentals, you’re setting your projects up for success. How are you safeguarding against SQL injections in your projects? Share your experiences! https://lnkd.in/eVR9VyBW
