In this video, we tackle the Host Header Authentication Bypass. This vulnerability occurs when a web application makes trust decisions based on the value of the Host header in HTTP requests — a dangerous assumption.
You’ll learn how to:
Manipulate the Host header to bypass authentication mechanisms
Access restricted areas like the admin panel
📌 Lab Goal: Gain admin access by exploiting the Host header trust and remove Carlos.
🧠 Skill Level: Intermediate
🔐 No login required — this lab demonstrates how improper Host header validation can grant unauthorized access.
🎯 Don't forget to practice responsibly and ethically!
📥 Watch, learn, and try it out yourself!
