This would be a very good choice. It's a bit light on details, but
makes up for it by being exceptionally well-written and very
accessible.

This is a good volume, but very dated. I'd probably pass on it.

Briefly glancing over the TOC, this actually looks surprisingly good.
CEH itself is a joke among black hats, but if this gets down to the
nitty-gritty of actually performing the attacks it covers it sounds
like a buy.

I'd skip this one, as it isn't really focused on what you want. The
web application hacker's handbook is probably more along the lines of
what you need, if you're going for a book. There's also an older
volume called 'counter hack' that gives a good overview of some of the
ways that attacks proceed.

Another recommend I'm surprised hasn't popped up already: 'security
power tools' is a good way to get your foot in the door. It has a
practical, no-nonsense approach and is split into self-contained
chapters so you don't waste too much of your time on tools that aren't
relevant to you.
