## DETAILED RETEST RESULTS

### VLN-001: SQL Injection in Login

| Attribute | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Original Severity** | Critical |
| **Retest Status** | ✅ Remediated |
| **Tested On** | [Date] |

#### Original Issue
SQL injection vulnerability in the username parameter of the login form.

#### Remediation Implemented
Client implemented parameterized queries and added input validation.

#### Verification Testing
**Test Performed:**
```
POST /login
username: admin'--
password: test
```

**Result:**
- Application now returns "Invalid credentials" error
- No SQL error messages exposed
- Unable to bypass authentication

#### Evidence
[Screenshot showing failed injection attempt]

#### Conclusion
✅ **Remediated** - The SQL injection vulnerability has been successfully fixed.

### VLN-002: Missing CSRF Protection

| Attribute | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Original Severity** | High |
| **Retest Status** | ⚠️ Partially Remediated |
| **Tested On** | [Date] |

#### Original Issue
No CSRF tokens on state-changing operations.

#### Remediation Implemented
Client added CSRF tokens to password change and email update forms.

#### Verification Testing
**Tested Endpoints:**
- [x] /account/change-password - CSRF token present and validated
- [x] /account/update-email - CSRF token present and validated
- [ ] /account/delete - CSRF token missing
- [ ] /api/transfer - CSRF token missing

#### Evidence
[Screenshot showing CSRF token in protected forms]
[Screenshot showing missing protection on other forms]

#### Conclusion
⚠️ **Partially Remediated** - CSRF protection added to some forms but not all 
state-changing operations. Recommend extending protection to all endpoints.

### VLN-003: Weak Password Policy

| Attribute | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Original Severity** | Medium |
| **Retest Status** | ❌ Not Remediated |
| **Tested On** | [Date] |

#### Original Issue
Password policy allowed weak passwords (minimum 6 characters, no complexity).

#### Client Response
Client stated fix was deployed on [Date].

#### Verification Testing
**Test Performed:**
Attempted to set password to: "123456"

**Result:**
Password was accepted without error.

#### Evidence
[Screenshot showing weak password accepted]

#### Conclusion
❌ **Not Remediated** - Weak passwords are still accepted. Fix does not appear 
to be deployed or is not functioning correctly.

## NEW ISSUES IDENTIFIED

During retesting, the following new issues were identified:

### NEW-001: Verbose Error Messages

| Attribute | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **Severity** | Low |
| **Affected Asset** | /api/login |

#### Description
While testing the SQL injection fix, verbose database error messages were 
observed when malformed input is provided.

#### Evidence
```
Error: PDOException: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error in query...
```

#### Recommendation
Implement generic error messages for production environment.

---

## RECOMMENDATIONS

### Immediate Actions Required
1. Complete remediation of VLN-002 (CSRF) on remaining endpoints
2. Verify deployment of VLN-003 (Password Policy) fix
3. Address NEW-001 (Error Messages)

### Process Improvements
- Implement pre-deployment security testing
- Create security regression test suite
- Establish fix verification process before marking issues resolved
