Hi All, We at null have come up with an open-source project called GameOver ( http://null.co.in/2012/06/14/gameover-web-pentest-learning-platform/ ). GameOver is a GNU/Linux distribution based on Voyage Linux (Voyage 0.8) and we have included a set of deliberately insecure web applications for learning web security.
