hacking: security in practice
Lost outlook / Hotmail account

Hi all,

I had an old hotmail.com address from yeeeeeaaars ago that was unfortunately hacked / stolen.

I filled out account recovery information through Microsoft / Outlook to which none of the info matched, obviously, because the details had been changed.

This was a few years ago now, and since then I have been dabbling in coding courses and ethical Hacking, to hopefully one day recover this account back, through my own doing.

My question to you lot is: What language and methods would you recommend I focus on, in order to be able to achieve my goal? Because I'm getting nowhere with Microsoft.

Is it possible to sanitize an image byte array?

I have a backend API that grabs an image from a url but Fortify security application considers that API vulnerable to XSS since I’m returning an unsanitized object.

But the only thing I’m returning is a byte array. Not sure if it’s possible to sanitize that

Anyone happen to recognize a solution for this?
