CDN was once a passive cache. Now: edge functions, header rewriting, cache key manipulation, custom routing. Each is a new attack surface.
CDN was once a passive cache. Now: edge functions, header rewriting, cache key manipulation, custom routing. Each is a new attack surface.
Cache poisoning, cache deception, edge-function privilege escalation, header injection between CDN and origin — all bug classes that didn’t exist when CDN was just static-asset cache.
The mindset: list every CDN feature you use. For each, ask “what does it transform between client and origin?” Each transformation is testable.
