Cloudflare’s new Web and API Vulnerability Scanner helps teams proactively find logic flaws. By using AI to build API call graphs, we identify vulnerabilities that standard defensive tools miss.
AI Summary
Cloudflare introduces a stateful vulnerability scanner for APIs, designed to actively hunt for logic flaws that traditional security measures often miss. The scanner targets Broken Object Level Authorization (BOLA), the most pervasive API threat, and uses a DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing) approach to simulate valid requests to detect vulnerabilities. This proactive approach enables security teams to identify and fix flaws without relying on passive scanning or user traffic context.
