Abstract
This abstract highlights the issue of website vulnerability in police traffic challan websites in India. Despite the benefits of having websites, there is a growing concern about the security of such websites due to a lack of secure programming practices, miss-configuration of systems and web application vulnerabilities, or not staying up-to-date with security patches. Attackers may exploit these vulnerabilities and conduct attacks that result in data loss, privacy loss, and other risks. The vulnerability assessment of police traffic challan websites was conducted using online open source tools, where light vulnerability scan tests were performed. The assessment showed that out of the top 5 police traffic challan websites, 4 are at high risk, and one is at medium risk. Improvement in these websites is necessary to mitigate possible cyber-attacks and fix the vulnerabilities
