AGMP Partners The Current State of Web Application Security Flaws in Late 2025 As we navigate the tail end of 2025 and push into Q2 2026, the landscape of web application security has evolved considerably, especially when viewed through the perennial lens of the OWASP Top 10. While core vulnerabilities like Injection and Broken Access Control remain stubbornly prevalent, the attack surface has expanded dramatically. We're seeing less of the "smash-and-grab" SQLi and more sophisticated, multi-stage attacks leveraging chained vulnerabilities, often across highly distributed, API-driven microservices architectures. The monolithic application, while still a target, is rapidly being supplanted by complex ecosystems of serverless functions, containerized deployments on Kubernetes, and interconnected third-party APIs – each presenting its own distinct set of security challenges. The ubiquity of
