Projects/OWASP WS Amplification DoS Project/Roadmap

• PHASE 1:
  • A - Setting up a tool that can detect this vulnerability
    • 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
