The OWASP Community Pages repository, which hosts community-contributed application security content published at owasp.org/www-community. It contains articles on attacks (XSS, CSRF, SQL injection) and controls (CSP, SRI, cookie hardening) maintained via fork-and-pull contributions.

Use cases

• learn about web application security attacks like XSS and CSRF
• find prevention techniques for SQL injection and command injection
• reference security controls such as Content Security Policy and Subresource Integrity
• contribute security documentation to OWASP
• understand session management and cookie security best practices
• research credential stuffing and brute force defenses

When to choose

• you need authoritative, community-reviewed explanations of appsec attacks and defenses
• you want to contribute or update security documentation under the OWASP umbrella
• you are training developers on secure coding concepts

When to avoid

• you need runnable security tooling or code rather than written guidance
• you need formal standards like the OWASP Top 10 or ASVS (separate projects)
• you require a license-clarified codebase for redistribution
