Billions of users are relying on them every day and trusting them with their most sensitive data. Therefore, ensuring the security and privacy of web appli- cations is of paramount importance. Traditionally, the server-side code of websites was written in languages such as PHP or Java for which secu- rity issues are well studied and understood. Recently, however, full-stack JavaScript web applications emerged, which have both their client-side and server-side code written in this language. We hypothesize that there are several unique properties of full-stack JavaScript web applications that pose a serious challenge for the security analysts: the new threat model for JavaScript, the excessive code reuse, the prevalence of code transformations, and the existence of complex full-stack threats. In this dissertation, we support this thesis by performing several in-depth studies of the JavaScript ecosystem and by proposing multiple improvements to the state-of-the art practices. First, we discuss two types of security vulnerabilities that are aggravated by the new threat model: injections and regular-expression denial of service. Second, we show that excessive code reuse in the JavaScript ecosystem increases the chance of relying on malicious or vulnerable code. Third, we provide evidence that code transformations are widespread and that full-stack threats exist. Fi- nally, we propose several improvements for techniques aimed at hardening web applications: cost-effective consideration of implicit flows, the extrac- tion of taint specification for third-party libraries, and pragmatic program analysis for defending against injections. The problem of securing full-stack JavaScript web applications is far from settled, but we hope that the current dissertation serves as motiva- tion for future work to consider this increasingly important class of appli- cations. In particular, we argue for holistic approaches that consider full- stack and cross-library information flows. v ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Webanwendungen sind die wichtigste Schnittstelle zum Internet. Milliar- den Nutzer sind täglich auf sie angewiesen und vertrauen ihnen ihre sen- siblen Daten an. Deshalb ist es besonders wichtig, die Sicherheit und den Datenschutz von Webanwendungen zu gewährleisten. Der serverseitige Code von Websites wurde üblicherweise in Sprachen wie PHP oder Ja- va geschrieben, deren Sicherheitslücken gut erforscht und nachvollziehbar sind. In letzter Zeit sind jedoch Full-Stack-JavaScript-Webanwendungen aufgetreten, deren clientseitiger und serverseitiger Code in dieser Sprache geschrieben ist. Unsere Hypothese ist, dass viele Eigenschaften von Full-Stack- JavaScript-Webanwendungen eine ernsthafte Herausforderung für einen Sicherheitsanalysten darstellen: Das neue Bedrohungsmodell für Ja- vaScript, die übermäßige Wiederverwendung von Code, verbreitete Code-Transformationen und komplexe Full-Stack-Bedrohungen. In dieser Dissertation vertreten wir diese These, indem wir das JavaScript- Ökosystem mehrmals gründlich untersuchen und zahlreiche Verbesse- rungen zum heutigen Stand der Technik aufzeigen. Als Erstes erörtern wir zwei Arten von Sicherheitslücken, die durch das neue Bedrohungs- modell verschärft werden: Injections und Denial-of-Service für reguläre Ausdrücke. Als Zweites wird aufgezeigt, dass eine übermäßige Wieder- verwendung von Code im JavaScript-Ökosystem die Wahrscheinlichkeit erhöht, sich auf bösartigen oder anfälligen Code zu verlassen. Als Drit- tes weisen wir die weite Verbreitung von Code-Transformationen und das Vorkommen von Full-Stack-Bedrohungen nach. Schließlich werden verschiedene verbesserte Techniken zum Härten von Webanwendungen vorgestellt: Berücksichtigung der Effizienz von impliziten Datenflüssen, Extraktion von Taint-Spezifikationen für Bibliotheken von Drittanbietern und pragmatische Programmanalyse zur Abwehr von Injection-Angriffen. Das Sicherheitsproblem von Full-Stack-JavaScript-Webanwendungen ist noch lange nicht gelöst. Jedoch hoffen wir, dass die vorliegende Dissertati- on dazu motiviert, diese zunehmend wichtige Applikationsart für zukünf- tige Arbeiten zu berücksichtigen. Insbesondere befürworten wir ganzheit- liche Ansätze, die Full-Stack und bibliotheksübergreifende Informations- flüsse miteinschließen. vii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The work described in this dissertation was done over the course of five crazy, intense years. This wonderful time of my life was filled with a lot of transformative experiences. Even though pursuing a PhD is viewed as a way to climb into or build one’s ivory tower, I found that the opposite was true in my case: I met a lot of wonderful, down-to-earth people on the way who supported and encouraged my efforts. First and foremost, I want to thank my adviser Michael Pradel who was an excellent mentor and role model. He guided every step of my PhD adventure and enabled me to transform from a software engineer with an interest for science into an independent researcher. This rite of passage involved climbing many steep slopes and fighting a lot of my inner beasts. Thank you, Michael, I am forever grateful for your immense trust and support. Please do not forget that if (secret) x = true. Next, I want to thank the current and past members of Software Lab. The friendly atmosphere in the group and the accent on high quality re- search allowed me to continuously grow, while nurturing the right amount of skepticism. In particular, I am very grateful to Andrea Püchner, Marija Selakovic, Marina Billes, Jibesh Patra, Andrew Habib and Daniel Lehmann for their continuous support, for helping with navigating the German bu- reaucracy, and for the fun philosophical discussions. I also want to thank Markus Zimmermann, Philippe Skolka and Patrick Mell for completing their theses under my supervision and Katharina Plett for helping with the translation of the thesis abstract into German. I am also grateful for having had the opportunity to co-author papers with great researchers from around the world: Max Schäfer, Anders Møller, Martin Toldam Torp, Nikos Vasilakis, Daniel Schoepe, Musard Balliu, An- drei Sabelfeld, Benjamin Livshits, Luca Della Toffola, Cam Tenny, Hui Liu, Qiurong Liu, Yue Luo, Esben Andreasen, Liang Gong, Koushik Sen, Mar- iano Ceccato, Paolo Falcarin, Alessandro Cabutto and Yosief Weldezghi Frezghi. Thank you for guiding my research in the right direction in these early years, I learned a lot by working side-by-side with you. As I mentioned earlier, I had the benefit of meeting a lot of wonder- ful people while in Darmstadt, many of whom I already mentioned. My colleagues at Software Lab and their partners were some of my closest friends during these years. I want to thank especially Supriti Sinhama- ix hapatra, Jovan Kruni´cand Lydia Gad for the many great afternoons we spent together. Additionally, I want to thank Nikolay Matyunin for his great sense of humor and for our endless discussions about the Eastern European experience and Wen Wang for her extraordinarily positive atti- tude. Karina Köhres for helping me better understand and fit in the Ger- man culture, and the Darmstädter one in particular. Hanne Weismann and Matthew Geddes for our fantastic board game nights, especially for our trip to Chamstone. I also want to thank Peter Merz and Nathalie Brunner Merz for their affection, Giorgia Azzurra Marson for being an amazing flat- mate, Tommaso Gagliardoni for his entertaining travel stories and Patrick Struck for the fun pub quiz evenings. Finally, I also want to thank Nikolaos Athanasios Anagnostopoulos, Carel van Rooyen and Spyros Boukoros for tackling together the shock of our first doctorate year. Next, I would like to thank my teachers and mentors who, during my studies, instilled respect and curiosity for science in me, and for knowl- edge in general: Marius Minea, Radu Marinescu, Emilia Petris, or, Massi- miliano Sala, Artur Kuczapski, C˘alinDon, Gabriel Petric, Letit, ia Rafiliu, Maria Pascu and Camelia T˘almaciu.

Nina Koennemann observes them as if they were the last - or newly discovered - specimens of their kind. Their shoes, their lair, the way in which they separate ash from ember and how they dispose of waste. The traces that they leave behind in the cityscape; a cityscape in which they them- selves appear only in traces. A granite block and a film frame, in which visible and invisible dividing lines of the various quadrants, zones and outskirts overlap each other, forming the city as a semi-transparent area. The era of the cigarette, which began with the rise of industrial production and mass consumption, their ordering of time into brief intervals-the length of a smoke-is shown here entering its last phase. The semi-worldliness of smoking, last bound to bars and juke joints, finds the reverberation of a waking dream in the reflections of people, their body parts and passenger cars in the granite surface. This can mean the bisection of the world in the exact doubling of the material factors, or it's interpreted as a means of escape, an extension of space. -Katha Schulte Flame In May 2012 over a thousand computers in countries in the Middle East were infected by Flame malware. The virus is the latest in a series of cyberweapons (following Stuxnet in 2010, Duqu in 2011 and Mahdi in February 2012) and, because of its large and expensive scale, is speculated to be designed by governments for espionage purposes rather than hacker or cybercriminal activity.

Surfing the web has become such a mainstay in our day to day lives that a lot of us have a hard time imagining a world without it. What seems like an endless trove of data is right at our fingertips. On the surface, using the Internet seems to be a one-sided exchange of information. We, as users, request data from companies and use it as we deem fit.

This side channel has led to successful CRIME and BREACH attacks on web traffic protected by the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. The general guidance in light of these attacks has been to disable compression, preserving confidentiality but sacrificing bandwidth. In this paper, we examine two techniques|heuristic separation of secrets and fixed-dictionary compression|for enabling compression while protecting high-value secrets, such as cookies, from attack. We model the security offered by these techniques and report on the amount of compressibility that they can achieve. 1This is the full version of a paper published in the Proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Financial Cryptography and Data Security (FC 2015) in San Juan, Puerto Rico, USA, January 26{30, 2015, organized by the International Financial Cryptography Association in cooperation with IACR. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 3 2 Definitions 6 2.1 Encryption and compression schemes.........................6 2.2 Existing security notions................................7 2.3 New security notions..................................7 2.4 Relations and separations between security notions.................8 3 Technique 1: Separating secrets from user inputs9 3.1 The scheme.......................................9 3.2 CCI security of basic separating-secrets technique.................

Dropbox for Business brings that same simplicity to the workplace, with advanced features that help teams share instantly across their organizations and give admins the visibility and control they need. But more than just an easy-to-use tool for storage and sharing, Dropbox for Business is designed to keep important work files secure. To do this, we’ve created a sophisticated infrastructure onto which account administrators can layer and customize policies of their own. In this paper, we’ll detail the back-end policies, as well as options available to admins, that make Dropbox the secure tool for getting work done. Product features (security, control, and visibility) Dropbox provides the administrative control and visibility features that empower both IT and end users to effectively manage their businesses and data. Below is a sampling of features available to team admins and users, as well as third-party integrations for managing core IT processes. Admin management features No two organizations are exactly alike, so we’ve developed a number of tools that empower admins to customize Dropbox for Business to their teams’ particular needs.
