Capstone Thread

Add ASVS profile and traceability matrix, application threat model, secure requirements, exploit-to-regression records, authorization matrix, input/output controls, business-invariant tests, sensitive-data map, tool triage, remediation log, and residual risk.

Required evidence

Submit authorized reproduction, request and response evidence with secrets removed, code and configuration repair, bypass variants, deterministic regression, ASVS mapping, scope analysis, and residual risk. Raw scanner severity is not accepted without triage.

Oral defense

Demonstrate the violated invariant, explain why the repair generalizes, run a bypass attempt, and identify adjacent routes or versions included in scope.

Source backbone

Use OWASP ASVS, OWASP WSTG, OWASP Cheat Sheets, and NIST SSDF.
