SecureLayer7 · Industry tear-sheet

FinTech
Payments, lending, and brokerage stacks tested by researchers who chain auth, money-movement, and OAuth flows the way attackers do.
40+
Disclosed CVEs from SL7 Lab across payment SDKs, KYC pipelines, and OAuth providers used by regulated FinTech platforms.
Three named threats we test for
- 01
Card-data exfil via business-logic abuse
Pricing rules, refund overrides, and tokenisation gaps that let an attacker pull cardholder data without ever breaking PCI cryptography.
- 02
Refund-flow race conditions
Settlement, dispute, and reversal endpoints raced against each other to double-spend, settle phantom transactions, or break ledger reconciliation.
- 03
OAuth callback hijack across linked accounts
Account-linking and SSO flows tested for state-binding gaps, open-redirect chains, and partner-app trust abuse that surface real fraud paths.
Findings cite real CVE records from SL7 Lab disclosure history, not screenshot mockups.
How we run the engagement
FinTech
- 01
Scope and threat-model
Engagement lead walks the platform with your engineering and risk owners. Outcome is a written threat model, not a checklist.
- 02
Manual exploitation
Researchers attack the auth chain, money-movement endpoints, and partner integrations by hand. Tools assist, they do not lead.
- 03
Chained-finding write-up
Every report shows the path from entry to impact, with reproduction steps a developer can replay on a laptop.
- 04
Retest and sign-off
Fixes are retested against the original exploit chain, not just the patched endpoint. CISO gets a signed letter for the audit file.
