How does machine learning apply to CMS pentesting?

Machine learning, a branch of artificial intelligence, can be effectively applied to CMS (Content Management System) pentesting. CMS pentesting involves identifying vulnerabilities and weaknesses in CMS platforms, which often power websites and web applications. Machine learning algorithms can be trained using large datasets of CMS vulnerabilities to automatically learn patterns and identify potential vulnerabilities in newly discovered or existing CMS systems. By analyzing code, configurations, and system behavior, machine learning models can detect and flag security flaws, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and authentication bypass. This automation significantly speeds up the pentesting process and enhances the accuracy of vulnerability detection, thereby enabling organizations to identify and fix security gaps in their CMS platforms more efficiently.
