Astra - Automated Security Testing For REST API's

is complex due to continuous changes in existing APIs and newly added APIs. Astra can be used by security engineers or developers as an integral part of their process, so they can detect and patch vulnerabilities early during development cycle. Astra can automatically detect and test login & logout (Authentication API), so it's easy for anyone to integrate this into CICD pipeline. Astra can take API collection as an input so this can also be used for testing apis in standalone mode.

SQL injection
Cross site scripting
Information Leakage
Broken Authentication and session management

 REST API Security testing Framework
 
 optional arguments:
   -h, --help            show this help message and exit
   -c {Postman,Swagger}, --collection_type {Postman,Swagger}
                         Type of API collection
   -n COLLECTION_NAME, --collection_name COLLECTION_NAME
                         Type of API collection
   -u URL, --url URL     URL of target API
   -headers HEADERS, --headers HEADERS
                         Custom headers.Example: {"token" : "123"}
   -method {GET,POST}, --method {GET,POST}
                         HTTP request method
   -b BODY, --body BODY  Request body of API
   -l LOGINURL, --loginurl LOGINURL
                         URL of login API
   -H LOGINHEADERS, --loginheaders LOGINHEADERS
                         Headers should be in a dictionary format. Example:
                         {"accesstoken" : "axzvbqdadf"}
   -d LOGINDATA, --logindata LOGINDATA
                         login data of API
