I believe IBM/Watchfire (now called 'IBM Rational Scan') has a site
that's stood up exclusively for webappsec demo'ing purposes. I've seen
it used in various demos. It's globally available and I don't believe
there's any restriction on testing against it.

Subject: Web Pen Test Honeypot

Greetings,

I am in the middle of evaluating the wide variety of web security
pen-test tools that exist. I'm currently pointing each piece of software
to a site that I have written. None of the tools are finding issues.

My task right now is to find the right tool for the job, and the job is
finding web-based security issues. Either the tools are not working, or
my site is secure. I'm not willing to put money on which of the two is
true. :)

What I need is a web application that has known security issues. I would
prefer one that was intentionally written to have scanners pointed to it
for testing the scanners.

Does such a thing exist? I hope so, because I hardly have time right now
to write even the simplest web application that has all of the various
holes that I need to test for.

If someone could point me to a "web honeypot" that I could install in my
own environment I would appreciate it.

Thanks.
