# Exploiting Server-Side Request Forgery

## When to Use

- During authorized penetration tests when the application fetches URLs provided by users (webhooks, URL previews, file imports)
- When testing cloud-hosted applications for access to instance metadata services
- For assessing PDF generators, screenshot services, or any feature that renders external content
- When evaluating microservice architectures for internal service access via SSRF
- During security assessments of APIs that accept URL parameters for data fetching

## Prerequisites

- **Authorization**: Written penetration testing agreement including SSRF testing scope
- **Burp Suite Professional**: With Collaborator for out-of-band detection
