Hello,

I am collecting as information as possible about http(s) session attacks.

There is a plenty of information about existing attacks, but, i would like to know if some new breeds of attacks are now made possible either by security flaws in popular software or technologies or by new smarter security engineering.

Do you have some recommendations about new techniques or tools ?

Thanks,
