Projects/OWASP WS Amplification DoS Project/Roadmap
PHASE 1:
A - Setting up a tool that can detect this vulnerabilty
- Finding a way to crawl the net looking for open webservices and test them with the above tool
B - Looking into the different WS implementations and finding out their default WS-Addressing behaviour
* .NET, Axis, Axis2, CXF,...
PHASE 2:
A - Analyse the results and determine the global threat magnitude
* Average amplification factor, number of vulnerable open webservices,...
B - Determine what adjustments and countermeasures must be taken in order to mitigate the threat
* In the frameworks, external tool?,...
PHASE 3:
- Bundle all the results and possible countermeasures into a document/article to create awareness
