First generation Web application security vulnerability scanners employed an approach based on the use of signatures (matching of regular expressions) to detect vulnerabilities. This paper explores the limitations of signatures and provides examples of a more effective approach it termed Stateful Assessment. Stateful Assessment is based on a process of generating Web application transactions and evaluating the response of the browser over the course of the entire transaction. The advantage of this approach is a dramatic increase in the number of vulnerabilities found, a decrease in false vulnerabilities (false positives), and validation inherent in the process.
