New Browser Extension: Introducing Devolutions Web Login New Browser Extension: Introducing Devolutions Web Login Back in the old days (so we’re talking about a week ago) , it was necessary to install and manage the browser extension for Remote Desktop Manager separately. Well, those days are over thanks to the new bundled Devolutions Web Login ! Setting Up Devolutions Web Login From Remote Desktop Manager, select Tools – Extension Manager, choose your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera or Internet Explorer) and click Install. You’ll then be automatically directed to your browser’s web store, where you can add the extension. We will be using Chrome for our example. From the Chrome web store, simply click Add to Chrome. The Devolutions Web Login icon shows up on the toolbar. When you first use the Devolutions Web Login, you’ll get a message saying that it hasn’t been configured yet. Just click Connect to register and pair the Devolutions Web Login with Remote Desktop Manager (make sure that the software is open). Then go to the website of your choice, enter your credentials (for the last time!) and log in. A pop-up will appear at the top of your screen. If you wish to save your credentials as a new entry in the active data source of your Remote Desktop Manager, click Save Credentials. 2 You’ll then see the Devolutions Web Login icon in the credential box. The next time you connect to the site, simply click on the Devolutions Web ogin icon to select the right entry and automatically login to the website. It’s quick and easy, which is what everyone wants! Since we’ve decided to save the credentials within Remote Desktop Manager, if you go back into the software you will see that a folder has been automatically created with your new entry. You can now launch your website straight from RDM! Now that’s service! Stay tune because next week we will take a deeper look at how to automatically login through a Web Browser (HTTP/HTTPS) Ses- sion directly from Remote Desktop Manager. As always, please let us know your thoughts by using the comment feature of the blog. You can also visit our forums to get help and submit feature requests, you can find themhere . 3.

  • Rich Internet Applications for the Enterprise
    Final Thesis Rich Internet Applications for the Enterprise A comparative study of WebWork and Java Web Start by Emil Jönsson LITH-IDA-EX–07/063–SE 2007-12-07 Linköping University Department of Computer and Information Science Final Thesis Rich Internet Applications for the Enterprise A comparative study of WebWork and Java Web Start by Emil Jönsson LITH-IDA-EX–07/063–SE Supervisors: Valérie Viale Amadeus Philippe Larosa Amadeus Examiner: Kristian Sandahl Department of Computer and Information Science Linköping University Abstract Web applications initially became popular much thanks to low deployment costs and programming simplicity. However, as business requirements grow more complex, limitations in the web programming model might become evident. With the advent of techniques such as AJAX, the bar has been raised for what users have come to expect from web applications. To successfully implement a large-scale web application, software developers need to have knowledge of a big set of complementary technologies. This thesis highlights some of the current problems with the web programming model and discusses how using desktop technologies can improve the user experience. The foundation of the thesis is an implementation of a prototype of a central hotel property management system using web technologies. These technologies have then been compared to an alternative set of technologies, which were used for implementing a second prototype; a stand-alone desktop client distributed using Java Web Start. Keywords: web development, Rich Internet Applications, WebWork, Java Web Start, Property Management System, hospitality software Acknowledgements First I would like to thank Amadeus for giving me the opportunity to do an internship at their development site in Sophia Antipolis.

  • Security Analysis of Firefox Webextensions
    6.857: Computer and Network Security Due: May 16, 2018 Security Analysis of Firefox WebExtensions Srilaya Bhavaraju, Tara Smith, Benny Zhang srilayab, tsmith12, felicity Abstract With the deprecation of Legacy addons, Mozilla recently introduced the WebExtensions API for the development of Firefox browser extensions. WebExtensions was designed for cross-browser compatibility and in response to several issues in the legacy addon model. We performed a security analysis of the new WebExtensions model. The goal of this paper is to analyze how well WebExtensions responds to threats in the previous legacy model as well as identify any potential vulnerabilities in the new model. 1 Introduction Firefox release 57, otherwise known as Firefox Quantum, brings a large overhaul to the open-source web browser. Major changes with this release include the deprecation of its initial XUL/XPCOM/XBL extensions API to shift to its own WebExtensions API. This WebExtensions API is currently in use by both Google Chrome and Opera, but Firefox distinguishes itself with further restrictions and additional functionalities. Mozilla’s goals with the new extension API is to support cross-browser extension development, as well as offer greater security than the XPCOM API. Our goal in this paper is to analyze how well the WebExtensions model responds to the vulnerabilities present in legacy addons and discuss any potential vulnerabilities in the new model. We present the old security model of Firefox extensions and examine the new model by looking at the structure, permissions model, and extension review process. We then identify various threats and attacks that may occur or have occurred before moving onto recommendations.

  • Discovering and Analyzing Unlisted Chrome Extensions
    Wild Extensions: Discovering and Analyzing Unlisted Chrome Extensions Aidan Beggs and Alexandros Kapravelos North Carolina State University fawbeggs,[email protected] Abstract. With browsers being a ubiquitous, if not required, method to access the web, they represent a unique and universal threat vec- tor. Browsers can run third-party extensions virtually invisibly in the background after a quick install. In this paper, we explore the abuse of browser extensions that achieve installations via suspicious methods. We scan the web for links to extension installations by performing a web crawling of the Alexa top 10,000 websites with recursive sub-page depth of 4 and leverage other tools to search for artifacts in the source code of webpages. We discover pages that have links to both listed and un- listed extensions, many times pointing to multiple different extensions that share the same name. Using this data, we were able to find 1,097 unlisted browser extensions ranging from internal directory lookup tools to hidden Google Docs extensions that pose a serious threat to their 127 million users. Keywords: browser extensions · JavaScript · browser security 1 Introduction Although they run largely in the background, extensions can be quite useful to the end user. Performing everything from letting users manage their email, to helping people manage their banking and crypto accounts, to blocking inva- sive ads (one of their most popular uses), extensions can ease the web browsing experience for many users. Upon installation, extensions will request the user for various permissions [9], however, many users have been conditioned to click "accept" without careful analysis of the permissions they are granting [10].

  • Security Considerations Around the Usage of Client-Side Storage Apis
    Security considerations around the usage of client-side storage APIs Stefano Belloro (BBC) Alexios Mylonas (Bournemouth University) Technical Report No. BUCSR-2018-01 January 12 2018 ABSTRACT Web Storage, Indexed Database API and Web SQL Database are primitives that allow web browsers to store information in the client in a much more advanced way compared to other techniques such as HTTP Cookies. They were originally introduced with the goal of enhancing the capabilities of websites, however, they are often exploited as a way of tracking users across multiple sessions and websites. This work is divided in two parts. First, it quantifies the usage of these three primitives in the context of user tracking. This is done by performing a large-scale analysis on the usage of these techniques in the wild. The results highlight that code snippets belonging to those primitives can be found in tracking scripts at a surprising high rate, suggesting that user tracking is a major use case of these technologies. The second part reviews of the effectiveness of the removal of client-side storage data in modern browsers. A web application, built for specifically for this study, is used to highlight that it is often extremely hard, if not impossible, for users to remove personal data stored using the three primitives considered. This finding has significant implications, because those techniques are often uses as vector for cookie resurrection.
