Trainings

Breakers, defenders and superheroes!

In the wonderful world of application security we often learn to break stuff or we learn how to prevent hackers from breaking your stuff. In this training i would love to adres some basic and advanced topics and not only teach developers how to properly test their code like a penetration tester, but also learn the penetration tester to think like a developer so they really can deliver added value when instructing developers on how to fix their code like a baws!

Some of the topics i would like to adresss are:

  • Content security policy and how to defeat it with HTML injections
  • Advanced cross site scripting
  • Cross site request forgery
  • Mass Assignment (Parameter binding) attacks
  • External entity attacks
  • Path/directory traversal attacks (File inclusion attacks)
  • File upload injections
  • Server side template injections
  • Authentication and authorization


PWN Android Apps with your Custom Built Toolbox

Frustrated with the various tools and environments needed to perform mobile pentesting? All available Android test distributions have drawbacks and missing and/or non-working tools etc. Learn how to create your own customized mobile pentesting toolbox with the tools you really want/need.

Not sure which steps to follow when performing a mobile application security assessment? Our renowned trainer, Steven Wierckx, will show you which steps to follow and what issues to focus on.

Why simply deploying HTTPS will not get you an A+ grade

20 years after the introduction of HTTPS, it is finally moving towards widespread adoption. As more and more web sites are enabling HTTPS, the attention for correct deployments increases as well. Tools such as Qualys’ SSL Labs server test make it is easy to verify the quality of any domain’s HTTPS deployment, but at the same time show how challenging it is to receive an A+ grade. While the initial deployment of HTTPS may seem straightforward, correctly deploying HTTPS is a daunting task. In this session, participants will learn through hands-on experience how to deploy HTTPS correctly, and how it impacts a Web application. We will cover common Web attacks on HTTPS, and how they are countered by the newest HTTPS security policies, such as HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) and HTTP Public Key Pinning (HPKP).

The learning objectives for this session are:

  • Learning how to deploy HTTPS correctly, with strong ciphers and forward secrecy
  • Understanding the intricacies of HTTPS, and its impact on a Web application, especially in combination with HTTP
  • Understanding common Web attacks against HTTPS, and the newest browser-enforced security policies that counter them

Talks

The State of Security of WordPress (plugins)

Last July, we organised the Summer of Pwnage (sumofpwn.nl) targeting WordPress and WordPress Plugins. This has resulted in 118 findings; mostly affecting WordPress Plugins, but also WordPress Core. Looking at the reported types of vulnerabilities, by far the most reported type is Cross-Site Scripting. The majority of Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities were of the reflected type where the victim has to click on a malicious link or visit a malicious website (or advertisement). A fair share of them were stored though, and some of them even pre-auth.

Does this mean that WordPress is inherently insecure or is it just the Plugin eco system? In this talk, I'll present our view on the (in)security of WordPress and WordPress Plugins. In addition, I'll show how a WordPress installation can be compromised using Cross-Site Scripting (and how to protect) and a generic way to get remote code execution through PHP Object Injection will be demonstrated.

Securing AngularJS Applications

Since its birth, the Web evolved from a system to share and view scientific documents to a full-blown platform for sophisticated applications. While in the beginning most Web applications were implemented purely on the server-side, modern ones heavily rely on client-side components.

AnuglarJS is the latest addition in this process. Within an Angular application the server is merely a data storage facility with a few additional access checks. The core of the application is running on the client-side.

As Angular is specifically designed to work on the client-side, it attempts to remove the main points of friction for developers. By providing a templating system, two-way bindings and custom directives, DOM interactions can be reduced to a bare minimum.

From a security point of view this is very interesting as Angular removes the need for using some DOM APIs with very sharp edges (innerHTML, document.write). On the other hand, Angular introduces new ways of approaching application development that are largely unexplored in terms of security.

This talk provides an in-depth introduction to the security of Angular applications. It first introduces the core design ideas and security principles of AngularJS. Then, based on the experience of the Google Security Team, shows common security pitfalls that are specific to Angular applications. In general, the talk covers Angular's string interpolation functionality, strict auto-escaping templates, URL-based directives and insecure legacy APIs. All the presented issues are based on real-world bugs. The talk will demonstrate how to find and prevent these issues in practice.

Compression Bombs Strike Back

Network services often use data compression to reduce protocol message size. However, if data compression is not properly implemented, it can render entire applications vulnerable to DoS attacks. Abusing data compression to exhaust system resources is an old trick. For example, a zip bomb is a recursively highly-compressed file archive prepared with the only goal of exhausting the resources of programs that attempt to inspect its content. This attack was brought to the community attention in 1996 to mount DoS attacks against bulletin board systems.

While this may now seem an old, unsophisticated, and easily avoidable threat,we discovered that developers did not fully learn from prior mistakes. We looked at three protocols (i.e., HTTP, XMPP, and IMAP) and 11 network services including popular ones (e.g., Apache HTTPD, Tomcat, Prosody, and OpenFire) and discovered that the risks of supporting data compression are still often overlooked.

In this talk, we will walk through data amplification attacks starting from the ever-green zip bomb and xml bomb attacks until our recent results. We will present the current use of data compression in several popular protocol and network services, and 12 common mistakes that we observed at the implementation, specification, and configuration levels. In this talk, we will also present already patched resource exhaustion vulnerabilities which could have been used to perform Denial of Service attack against popular services.

Closing Keynote: The Future of Security

Computers are still getting faster by factor of two every 18 months, and the doubling time for memory and communications is even smaller. An increasing number of experts is developing and deploying ever more sophisticated security techniques. But cybersecurity incidents multiply and are more prominent in the media. Will the cloud and the Internet of Things offer us a secure infrastructure? Or are we heading for a security and privacy nightmare? What is the role of governments, companies and individuals? Do we need backdoors in security technologies to balance privacy and security? This seminar tries to answer these questions.

Handling of Security Requirements in Software Development Lifecycle

The bigger the company you're working in, the more technologies and methodologies used by development teams you are going to face. At the same time, you want to address security risks in an appropriate, reliable and traceable way for all of them.

After a short introduction of a unified process for handling security requirements in a large company, the main part of the talk is going to focus on a tool called SecurityRAT (Requirement Automation Tool) which has been developed in order to support and accelerate this process. The goal of the tool is first to provide a list of relevant security requirements according to properties of the developed software, and afterwards to handle these in a mostly automated way - integration with an issue tracker being used as a core feature. Work in progress and future plans will form the last part of the talk.

Zap it !

The OWASP Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is one of the world’s most popular and best maintained free security tools. In this talk we will cover some of the basic features of Zap and deep dive in some advanced features. We will also cover the ways you can use ZAP in your applications SDL.
