Get Rich or Die Trying - Making Money on the Web the black hat way
You may have heard these referred to as business logic flaws, but that name really doesnt do them justice. It sounds so academic and benign in that context when the truth is anything but. These are not the same ol Web hacker attack techniques everyone is familiar with, but the one staring you in the face and missed because gaming a system and making money this way couldnt be that simple. Plus IDS cant detect them and Web application firewalls cant black them. If fact, these types of attacks are so hard to detect (if anyone is actually trying) we arent even sure how widespread their use actually is. Time to pull back the cover and expose whats possible.
