common-dast-tooling

common-dast-tooling is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. It costs 69 tokens per session (958 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules and tools for dynamic application security testing (DAST), meaning security checks performed against a running website, API, or mobile app. It covers scanners and probes for finding issues such as injection, weak settings, and exposed endpoints.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan local or staging web apps, backend APIs, and mobile clients with tools such as ZAP, Nuclei, Nikto, sqlmap, and endpoint fuzzers.
Why use it?
It gives security testing a consistent, bounded process and prevents unsafe scans against live production systems. It also covers authenticated and mobile-specific testing situations.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

common-dast-tooling scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

DAST Tooling Standard

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Always-Apply Rules

  • No Scanning Production: Never run DAST tools against live production environments. Use local or staging replicas only.
  • No Uncapped Scans: Always set max-depth or max-duration to avoid infinite loops on dynamic routes.
  • No Anonymous Probing: Use authenticated headers (Authorization) to test protected surfaces, not public ones.
  • No Mobile on Real Devices in Prod: Use emulators/simulators for mobile interception testing.

1. Backend / API Tools

Scanner Tools

See implementation guide for setup commands.

  • Nuclei: Fast, template-based CVE/misconfiguration scanning.
  • ZAP-CLI: Deep spidering for SQLi, XSS, CSRF, session issues.
  • Nikto: Server configuration audit (version disclosure, headers).
  • sqlmap: Automated SQL injection detection and exploitation (suggest only — human confirms).
  • ffuf / feroxbuster: Content discovery and endpoint fuzzing.

API-Specific Probing

  • GraphQL: Introspection query, nested query depth attack, field suggestion enumeration.
  • gRPC: grpcurl for service enumeration and method probing.
  • WebSocket: Connection hijacking, message injection testing.

2. Frontend / Web Tools

  • Browser DevTools: Network tab for auth token leakage, console for client-side errors.
  • Playwright/Puppeteer (suggested): Automated DOM XSS detection, form submission, CSRF testing.
  • Lighthouse: Security/performance audit (CSP, HTTPS, mixed content).
  • CSP Evaluator: Validate Content-Security-Policy headers.

3. Mobile Interception Tools

  • mitmproxy / Burp Suite: Proxy mobile traffic for API inspection.
  • Frida: Runtime instrumentation for cert pin bypass, biometric bypass, jailbreak detection bypass.
  • adb / xcrun simctl: Device-level inspection, deep link testing, storage extraction.
  • Objection: Mobile runtime exploration (iOS/Android).

4. AI-Driven curl Probing (Manual Fallback)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
