Where things went wrong?
• Users can submit arbitrary data to the server
• This includes all non-obvious sources of data that can be used by
the application (cookies, HTTP headers)
• Data is mixed with all sorts of code (HTML, JavaScript, CSS, SQL)
• Complex to filter, escape and output-encode data
"uma frase aleatória"
HTML escaping
"uma frase aleatória"
<?PHP
$place = 'Peter's Pizza';
print $place;
?>

PHP string escaping

$place = 'Peter\'s Pizza';

A1 - Injection
Injection means…
•Tricking an application into including unintended commands in the data sent to an
interpreter
Interpreters…
•Take strings and interpret them as commands
•SQL, OS Shell, LDAP, XPath, etc…
SQL injection is still quite common
•Many applications still susceptible
•Even though it’s usually very simple to avoid
Typical Impact
•Usually severe. Entire database can usually be read or modified
•May also allow full database schema, or account access, or even OS level access

2. Attacker sends an attack in the
form data

3. Application forwards attack to
the database in a SQL query

4. Database runs query containing
attack and sends encrypted
results back to application
5. Application decrypts data as
normal and sends results to the
user

A1 – Avoiding Injection Flaws
•
Recommendations
1. Avoid the interpreter entirely, or
2. Use an interface that supports bind variables (e.g., prepared statements, or stored
procedures),
•
Bind variables allow the interpreter to distinguish between code and data
3. Encode all user input before passing it to the interpreter
– Always perform ‘white list’ input validation on all user supplied input
– Always minimize database privileges to reduce the impact of a flaw

A2 – Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
Occurs any time…
• Raw data from attacker is sent to an innocent user’s browser
Raw data…
• Stored in database
• Reflected from web input (form field, hidden field, URL, etc…)
• Sent directly into rich JavaScript client
Virtually every web application has this problem
• Try this in your browser – javascript:alert(document.cookie)
Typical Impact
• Steal user’s session, steal sensitive data, rewrite web page, redirect user to
phishing or malware site
• Most Severe: Install XSS proxy which allows attacker to observe and direct all
user’s behavior on vulnerable site and force user to other sites

A2 – Avoiding XSS flaws
•
Recommendations
– Eliminate Flaw
•
Don’t include user supplied input in the output page
– Defend Against the Flaw
•
•
•
•
Primary Recommendation: Output encode all user supplied input (Use OWASP’s ESAPI to
output encode:
http://www.owasp.org/index.php/ESAPI
Perform ‘white list’ input validation on all user input to be included in page
For large chunks of user supplied HTML, use OWASP’s AntiSamy to sanitize this HTML to
make it safe
See: http://www.owasp.org/index.php/AntiSamy
References
– For how to output encode properly, read the new
Site Scripting) Prevention Cheat Sheet
http://www.owasp.org/index.php/XSS_(Cross
14
Safe Escaping Schemes in Various HTML Execution Contexts
#1: ( &, <, >, " )  &entity; ( ', / )  &#xHH;
ESAPI: encodeForHTML()
HTML Element Content
(e.g., <div> some text to display </div> )
#2: All non-alphanumeric < 256  &#xHH
ESAPI: encodeForHTMLAttribute()
HTML Attribute Values
(e.g., <input name='person' type='TEXT'
value='defaultValue'> )
#3: All non-alphanumeric < 256  \xHH
ESAPI: encodeForJavaScript()
JavaScript Data
(e.g., <script> some javascript </script> )
CSS Style Property Values
#4: All non-alphanumeric < 256  \HH
ESAPI: encodeForCSS()
(e.g., .pdiv a:hover {color: red; text-decoration:
underline} )
URI Attribute Values
#5: All non-alphanumeric < 256  %HH
ESAPI: encodeForURL()
(e.g., <a href="javascript:toggle('lesson')" )
Recommendation: Only allow #1 and #2 and disallow all others
See: www.owasp.org/index.php/XSS_(Cross_Site_Scripting)_Prevention_Cheat_Sheet for more details

A3 – Broken Authentication and Session Management
HTTP is a “stateless” protocol
• Means credentials have to go with every request
• Should use SSL for everything requiring authentication
Session management flaws
• SESSION ID used to track state since HTTP doesn’t
• and it is just as good as credentials to an attacker
• SESSION ID is typically exposed on the network, in browser, in logs, …
Beware the side-doors
• Change my password, remember my password, forgot my password, secret
question, logout, email address, etc…
Typical Impact
• User accounts compromised or user sessions hijacked
www.foo.com?JSESSIONID=9FA1DB9EA...
Site uses URL rewriting
(i.e., put session in URL)

Hacker uses JSESSIONID and
takes over victim’s account
Custom Code
User clicks on a link to http://www.hacker.com
in a forum
Hacker checks referer logs on www.hacker.com
and finds user’s JSESSIONID

A3 –Avoiding Broken Authentication and Session Management
•
Verify your architecture
–
–
–
•
Verify the implementation
–
–
–
–
–
•
Authentication should be simple, centralized, and standardized
Use the standard session id provided by your framework (e.g. PHP Zend)
Be sure SSL protects both credentials and session id at all times
Check your SSL certificate
Examine all the authentication-related functions
Verify that logoff actually destroys the session
Make the session expire
Make the session unmovable (function(IP_ADDRESS))
Follow the guidance from
