Web Hacking Expert - Full-Stack Exploitation Mastery - Introduction to the Section-Hacking Web Applications via PDFs, Im

The course 'Hacking Web Applications via PDFs, Images, and Links' teaches how web applications can be compromised through common file types and links. It covers methods to identify vulnerabilities and demonstrates attacks such as data theft via PDFs, excess attacks via images, and user redirection via links. Each attack is accompanied by a practical demo to illustrate the process.
