LazySec

Quickly removes HTML UI validations for back-end validation testing
What is LazySec?
LazySec is a Chrome extension designed for software testers. It effectively removes HTML UI validations and reveals hidden elements, making backend validation testing easy and efficient. It simplifies testing by unlock elements disabled in UI and making visible elements hidden by certain attributes. The tool is coined 'LazySec' as it reveals lazy security implementations and encourages testing in a non-LazySec way.

Extension summary

DESCRIPTION: LazySec is a very simple tool designed for software testers but of general use. It helps in the task of testing Lazy Security implementations, hence the name, in the UI and revealing a pages' Lazy Secrets, hence the name II, by accomplishing these two things:

UNLOCK ELEMENTS: The extension unlocks all elements of a webpage by taking away some attributes, namely "disabled", "readonly", "maxlength", "required" and others related to form validations. In simple English: this will allow you to write on forbidden fields or write forbidden things. To do this hit LazySec's "Remove UI Security" button.

VIEW HIDDEN ELEMENTS: The extension makes visible those elements hidden by the "display:none", "type=hidden", and "visibility=hidden" attributes / styles. To do this hit LazySec's "Show Hidden Elements" button.

WHY LazySec?

  • I don't like opening the console nor "going hunting" by inspecting the page's DOM
  • Many project managers or Software Architects defend lazy security thingies by stating that unlocking elements of a webpage is something only a "very knowledgeable" or "tech savvy" user can do. Well, now every average Joe with LazySec can do it, so you better watch out!!
