Web Application Security Lesson

Description
This mock social network is designed to teach students the types of security vulnerabilities that are commonly found in web applications. 

Types of exploits shown
* SQL Injection
* XSS
* Access Control

Installation
Download, install, and run XAMPP (Apache and MySQL). Then, put this directory into htdocs. Navigate to "localhost/itpProject", or whatever this folder is named. The application uses the default installation of XAMPP, and uses the default pre-initialized 'test' database included with the installation. If your installation of XAMPP's MySQL did not include a database named "test", create it before running the webapp.
