Technical requirements

All of the vulnerabilities we will discuss are implemented in the project in the GitHub repository (https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Visual-Studio-2019-Tricks-and-Techniques/), in the Chapter15/WritingInstruments folder.

Port numbers in Visual Studio 2019 for Windows

By default, .NET Core projects in Visual Studio 2019 run under IIS Express. This will change the default port number of these projects from 5001 to 44300. As the examples in this chapter reference port 5001, you will need to either change the port number in the examples to the port your debugger is using, or select WritingExample instead of IIS Express at the top of the debugger.

You will also need to have the .NET Core 3.1.402 SDK installed to complete the exercises. You can get this SDK at https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/3.1.

We will also require the Puma Scan Professional plugin...
