Custom Solution We recommend disabling support for the export and null cipher suites, as well as cipher suites using RC4/3DES. Instead, we suggest AES128-SHA for TLS 1.0 and 1.1, and AES128-GCM-SHA256 for TLS 1.2.

When the transport layer is not encrypted, all communication between the website and the client is sent in clear text, which leaves it open to interception, injection, and redirection, also known as a man-in-the-middle/MITM attack. An attacker may passively intercept the communication, giving them access to any sensitive data that is being transmitted such as usernames and passwords. An attacker may also actively inject/remove content from the communication, allowing the attacker to forge and omit information, inject malicious scripting, or cause the client to access remote untrusted content. An attacker may also redirect the communication in such a way that the website and client are no longer communicating with each other, but instead are unknowingly communicating with the attacker in the context of the other trusted party.

This combination provides the highest quality of security assessments in the industry with high scalability and ease of use, to keep customers on top of their risk posture and help them secure their assets. Appendix - Vulnerability Level Definitions (by Severity) Severity is defined as the potential business impact if a specific vulnerability is exploited. The levels of severity are based on the same conditions factored into the PCI Security Scan report ratings, but the definitions below are clarified for Web application security concerns. The Severity is scored between 0 and 5: Urgent Critical High Medium Low Informational 5 4 3 2 1 0 Severity ratings are defined below: Rating Description Attacker can assume remote root or remote administrator roles; exposes entire host to attacker; backend database, Urgent personally identifiable records, credit card data; full read and write access, remote execution of commands; example Weakness Class: Insufficient Authorization; example Attack Classes: SQL Injection, Directory/Path Traversal Attacker can assume remote user only, not root or admin; exposes internal IP addresses, source code; partial file-system Critical access (full read access without full write access); example Weakness Class: Insufficient Authentication; example Attack Classes: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Abuse of Functionality Exposes security settings, software distributions and versions, database names; example Weakness Classes: Information High Leakage, Predictable Resource Location; example Attack Class: Content Spoofing Exposes precise versions of applications; sensitive configuration information may be used to research potential attacks against Medium host Low General information may be exposed to attackers, such as developer comments Informational No actual exposure: a failure to comply with best practices for security. © 2016 WhiteHat Security, Inc. - WhiteHat Security, Inc. and customer confidential | Vulnerability Details Report (Sites) Page 3 of 4 About WhiteHat Security WhiteHat Security is the leading provider of application risk assessment and management services that enable customers to protect critical data, ensure compliance, and narrow windows of risk.

  • Introduction
    HTTP Request Smuggling in 2020 – New Variants, New Defenses and New Challenges Amit Klein SafeBreach Labs Introduction HTTP Request Smuggling (AKA HTTP Desyncing) is an attack technique that exploits different interpretations of a stream of non-standard HTTP requests among various HTTP devices between the client (attacker) and the server (including the server itself). Specifically, the attacker manipulates the way various HTTP devices split the stream into individual HTTP requests. By doing this, the attacker can “smuggle” a malicious HTTP request through an HTTP device to the server abusing the discrepancy in the interpretation of the stream of requests and desyncing between the server’s view of the HTTP request (and response) stream and the intermediary HTTP device’s view of these streams. In this way, for example, the malicious HTTP request can be "smuggled" as a part of the previous HTTP request. HTTP Request Smuggling was invented in 2005, and recently, additional research cropped up. This research field is still not fully explored, especially when considering open source defense systems such as mod_security’s community rule-set (CRS). These HTTP Request Smuggling defenses are rudimentary and not always effective. My Contribution My contribution is three-fold. I explore new attacks and defense mechanisms, and I provide some “challenges”. 1. New attacks: I provide some new HTTP Request Smuggling variants and show how they work against various proxy-server (or proxy-proxy) combinations. I also found a bypass for mod_security CRS (assuming HTTP Request Smuggling is possible without it). An attack demonstration script implementing my payloads is available in SafeBreach Labs’ GitHub repository (https://github.com/SafeBreach-Labs/HRS).

  • Response Splitting – HTTP Request Smuggling HTTP Response Splitting
    CSC 405 Introduction to Computer Security Web Security Alexandros Kapravelos [email protected] (Derived from slides by Giovanni Vigna) Logic Flaws • Logic flaws come in many forms and are specific to the intended functionality and security policy of an application • Received little attention – Are known to be hard to identify in automated analysis – Not much public information • Are on the rise: “…as the number of common vulnerabilities such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting are reduced, the bad guys are increasing their attacks on business logic flaws” [J. Grossman, WhiteHat Security] Fear the EAR • Execution-After-Redirect vulnerabilities are introduced when code is executed after producing a redirect header • The developer assumes that since a redirection occurred, code execution stopped – Redirect used as a goto • Normally the behavior is invisible to the user, because the browser automatically load the page referenced by the redirection HTTP Redirects GET /user/info HTTP/1.1 Host: example.com HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Location: http://example.com/login GET /login HTTP/1.1 Host: example.com Execution After Redirect: Example class TopicsController < ApplicationController def update @topic = Topic.find(params[:id]) if not current_user.is_admin? redirect_to(“/”) end @topic.update_attributes(params[:topic]) flash[:notice] = “Topic updated!” end end EAR History • 17 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) – Starting in 2007 – Difficult to find – no consistent category • Blog post about Cake PHP 2006 – Resulted in a bug filed and documentation

Orlando Chair, Department Committee on Graduate Students Improving Web Site Security with Data Flow Management by Alexander Siumann Yip Submitted to the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science on August 21, 2009, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science Abstract This dissertation describes two systems, RESIN and BFLow, whose goal is to help Web developers build more secure Web sites. RESIN and BFLOW use data flow management to help reduce the security risks of using buggy or malicious code. RESIN provides programmers with language-level mechanisms to track and manage the flow of data within the server. These mechanisms make it easy for programmers to catch server-side data flow bugs that result in security vulnerabilities, and prevent these bugs from being exploited. BFLow is a system that adds information flow control, a restrictive form of data flow management, both to the Web browser and to the interface between a browser and a server.
