Can it test private APIs?

It can target specific API endpoints to identify security flaws like authentication bypass or authorization issues when provided with the correct endpoint access.

Does it cover the OWASP Top 10?

Yes, the skill is specifically designed to scan for major web vulnerabilities including SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF).

Is this tool safe to use on live environments?

While the skill facilitates security testing, you should always ensure you have explicit authorization and a defined scope before testing live systems to avoid unintended consequences.

What kind of reports does it generate?

It provides detailed summaries of identified security flaws, their associated risk levels, and specific remediation recommendations to help developers fix the issues.
