Dockerized web security labs are one of the most effective ways to learn real-world web application security. BreachBox-Web provides self-contained, vulnerable web applications designed for hands-on exploitation practice without unnecessary frameworks or setup complexity.
Why Dockerized Web Security Labs Matter
What Is BreachBox-Web?
BreachBox-Web is a collection of self-contained, Dockerized vulnerable web applications designed for hands-on security learning and CTF-style practice.
Each lab focuses on one specific web vulnerability, intentionally kept minimal so learners can concentrate on exploitation rather than setup, frameworks, or unnecessary abstractions.

Why Another Security Lab Project?
Let’s be honest.
Most security labs today fall into one of these categories:
- Overengineered platforms where you spend more time configuring tools than hacking
- Unrealistic examples that don’t resemble real-world vulnerabilities
- Large frameworks that hide the actual bug behind layers of code
BreachBox-Web takes the opposite approach.
- One lab = one vulnerability
- No shared dependencies
- No bloated frameworks
- No “magic” exploitation paths
Just a vulnerable application, running locally, waiting to be broken.
How BreachBox-Web Is Structured
Each lab in the repository includes:
- A standalone directory
- A dedicated
Dockerfile - A vulnerable web application
- A clear
README.mdexplaining:- The setup
- The objective
- The learning goal
Because every lab is Dockerized and isolated, you can run them safely on your local machine without worrying about conflicts or accidental exposure.
Who Is This For?
BreachBox-Web is built for people who want practical security skills, including:
- Security researchers
- Penetration testers
- Bug bounty hunters
- CTF players
- Students learning web application security
If you believe security is learned by doing, not just watching or reading, this project is for you.
Quick Start
Getting started takes only a few commands.
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/nomorebreach/BreachBox-Web.git
cd BreachBox-Web
Navigate to a lab:
cd lfi-lab
Build and run the container:
docker build -t lfi-lab .
docker run -d -p 8080:80 lfi-lab
Open your browser and start hacking:
http://localhost:8080
Each lab’s README.md contains specific instructions and objectives—always read it first.
Legal and Ethical Notice
All applications in BreachBox-Web are intentionally vulnerable.
- Do not deploy these containers on public servers
- Do not expose them to the internet
- Do not use these techniques on systems you don’t own or have permission to test
This project exists solely for educational and training purposes.
Part of the NoMoreBreach Initiative
BreachBox-Web is maintained by NoMoreBreach, an initiative focused on practical, real-world security learning.
The philosophy is simple:
Security is a skill. Skills are built through practice.
