OWASP Top 10 - 2016 Data Call Announcement

Public Notice: The OWASP Top 10 project is launching its effort to update the Top 10 again. The current version was released in 2013, so this update is expected to be the 2016 or more likely 2017 release. This time around, we are making an open data call so any organization with a broad set of application vulnerability statistics can contribute their data to the project. To make it easier for the project to consume this contributed data, we are requesting it be provided via a Google form.

DEADLINE: Data must be submitted by July 20, 2016.

You are invited to fill out the form OWASP Top 10 - 2016 Data Call if you wish to submit your organization's data to the project. To help you prepare for your submission, all the questions are listed on the OWASP Top 10 - 2016 Data Call Questions tab, here in the wiki.

WARNING: All contributed data will be made public. DO NOT CONTRIBUTE anything you don’t want to become publicly available.

OWASP Top 10

The OWASP Top Ten is a powerful awareness document for web application security. The OWASP Top Ten represents a broad consensus about what the most critical web application security flaws are. Project members include a variety of security experts from around the world who have shared their expertise to produce this list.

We urge all companies to adopt this awareness document within their organization and start the process of ensuring that their web applications do not contain these flaws. Adopting the OWASP Top Ten is perhaps the most effective first step towards changing the software development culture within your organization into one that produces secure code.

Translation Efforts

The OWASP Top 10 has been translated to many different languages by numerous volunteers. These translations are available as follows:

Page 4 of 5: Application Vulnerability Data

Each question asks the number of vulnerabilities found for a particular type of vulnerability. At the end, is one catch all text question where you can add other types of vulnerabilities and their counts. If you prefer, just send your vulnerability data a spreadsheet to [email protected] with these columns: CATEGORY NAME, CWE #, COUNT after you submit the rest of your input via this data call. ideally it would come from the email address you specified in the Point of Contact E-Mail question on Page 1 so its easy to correlate the two.

What do you think we should change?

  • Vulnerability types you think should be added to the T10? Because they are an unappreciated risk, widespread, becoming more prevalent, a new type of vulnerability, etc.
  • Vulnerability types you think should be removed from the T10?
  • Suggested changes to the Top 10 Document/Wiki?

On June 12, 2013 the OWASP Top 10 for 2013 was officially released. This version was updated based on numerous comments received during the comment period after the release candidate was released in Feb. 2013.


The OWASP Top 10 - 2013 is as follows:

If you are interested, the methodology for how the Top 10 is produced is now documented here: OWASP Top 10 Development Methodology

Please help us make sure every developer in the ENTIRE WORLD knows about the OWASP Top 10 by helping to spread the word!!!

As you help us spread the word, please emphasize:

  • OWASP is reaching out to developers, not just the application security community
  • The Top 10 is about managing risk, not just avoiding vulnerabilities
  • To manage these risks, organizations need an application risk management program, not just awareness training, app testing, and remediation

We need to encourage organizations to get off the penetrate and patch mentality. As Jeff Williams said in his 2009 OWASP AppSec DC Keynote: “we’ll never hack our way secure – it’s going to take a culture change” for organizations to properly address application security.

Introduction

The OWASP Top Ten provides a powerful awareness document for web application security. The OWASP Top Ten represents a broad consensus about what the most critical web application security flaws are. Project members include a variety of security experts from around the world who have shared their expertise to produce this list. Versions of the 2007 and 2010 version were translated into English, French, Spanish, Japanese, Korean and Turkish and other languages. Translation efforts for the 2013 version are underway and they will be posted as they become available.

We urge all companies to adopt this awareness document within their organization and start the process of ensuring that their web applications do not contain these flaws. Adopting the OWASP Top Ten is perhaps the most effective first step towards changing the software development culture within your organization into one that produces secure code.

Changes between 2010 and 2013 Editions

The OWASP Top 10 - 2013 includes the following changes as compared to the 2010 edition:

  • A1 Injection
  • A2 Broken Authentication and Session Management (was formerly 2010-A3)
  • A3 Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) (was formerly 2010-A2)
  • A4 Insecure Direct Object References
  • A5 Security Misconfiguration (was formerly 2010-A6)
  • A6 Sensitive Data Exposure (2010-A7 Insecure Cryptographic Storage and 2010-A9 Insufficient Transport Layer Protection were merged to form 2013-A6)
  • A7 Missing Function Level Access Control (renamed/broadened from 2010-A8 Failure to Restrict URL Access)
  • A8 Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) (was formerly 2010-A5)
  • A9 Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities (new but was part of 2010-A6 – Security Misconfiguration)

Warning: these articles have not been rated for accuracy by OWASP. Product companies should be extremely careful about claiming to "cover" or "ensure compliance" with the OWASP Top 10. The current state-of-the-art for automated detection (scanners and static analysis) and prevention (WAF) is nowhere near sufficient to claim adequate coverage of the issues in the Top 10. Nevertheless, using the Top 10 as a simple way to communicate security to end users is effective.
