Web Application Security Assessment

Let's explore how to use Pown CDB during a typical web app security engagments.

First, ensure that you have the latest pown installed:

$ npm install -g pown

If you have pown installed, make sure you have the latest version:

$ pown update

To get started with Pown CDB we need a Chrome browser instance (other browsers are also supported) with chrome debug remote interface enabled and listening on localhost:

$ pown cdb launch --port 9333

Once the chrome browser instance is running, hook it with pown cdb network utility:

$ pown cdb network --port 9333 -b

The -b flag is used to start Pown CDB with a curses-based user interface:

Use key-combo shift + ? to get a list of available shortcuts:

As soon as you start using the browser, Pown CDB will record and display the traffic in the user interface. To intercept requests use key-combo ctrl + t.

Requests are captured and opened in your default shell editor ($EDITOR). Make the desired changes, save and quit. The original request will be replaced with your changes.
