performing-http-parameter-pollution-attack

Executes HTTP Parameter Pollution attacks that inject duplicate request parameters to bypass input validation, WAF rules, and other security controls when front-end and back-end systems parse duplicate parameters differently. Use during web application penetration testing to test for parameter parsing inconsistencies or WAF/validation bypass.

# Performing HTTP Parameter Pollution Attack

## When to Use
- When testing web applications for input validation bypass vulnerabilities
- During WAF evasion testing to split attack payloads across duplicate parameters
- When assessing how different technology stacks handle duplicate HTTP parameters
- During API security testing to identify parameter precedence issues
- When testing OAuth or payment processing flows for parameter manipulation

## Prerequisites
- Burp Suite Professional with Intruder and Repeater modules
- Understanding of HTTP protocol and query string parsing
- Knowledge of server-side parameter handling differences (first, last, array, concatenated)
- cURL or httpie for manual parameter crafting
