We're all familiar with the OWASP Top 10, which provides a great foundation for web application security. However, with the rapid evolution of web technologies (SPAs, APIs, microservices, serverless), new attack vectors and sophisticated exploitation techniques are constantly emerging. Beyond the basic understanding of the OWASP Top 10, what are the most critical and often overlooked vulnerabilities in modern web application stacks (e.g., Node.js, React/Angular, GraphQL APIs, containerized deployments)? What are practical, actionable mitigation strategies and best practices for developers and security professionals to defend against these advanced threats, particularly in environments with continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines? I'm looking for insights into security challenges beyond the basics, such as insecure deserialization, SSRF in cloud environments, GraphQL specific attacks, or container escape vulnerabilities.
