Chapter Brochure

Here you can view a brochure explaining in Turkish the action highlights of OWASP/Türkiye during the last one and a half year [somewhat obsolete for a solid 8-9 months].

Projects/Tools/Translations

Here are some of the projects produced by OWASP/Türkiye;

An online web security related magazine in Turkish with a 2 months per-issue period

A CTF contest where researchers, professionals and hackers can show off their skills in an ethical way

  • Jarvinen by Gökhan Alkan & Yusuf Çeri & Bedirhan Urgun

A simple yet effective web based audit log monitoring service for Modsecurity v2. It consists of two basic parts; a (bash) shell script that parses serial logs into the mysql database and a php web application.

Aims to provide (bash) shell scripts in order to automatize the source code installations of apache (php and modsecurity) and mysql under chroot (for RedHat based systems for now).

  • SecureImage by Mesut Timur & Bedirhan Urgun & Kerem Küsmezer

A Java,PHP and .NET based image validator that can be used for validating image files on upload systems (such as photo galleries,forums,etc ..) against the threats for XSS issues with IE and LFI attacks. Individual project pages; PSecureImage for PHP, JSecureImage for Java and NSecureImage for .NET

  • SecureTomcat by Bedirhan Urgun & Deniz Çevik & Gökhan Alkan

A collection of three components; an audit documentation in Turkish, a basic remote vulnerability scanner and an audit shell script fully aligned with the audit documentation. All for auditing and testing Apache Tomcat partial J2EE container.

WeBekci is a graphical user end for ModSecurity 2.x web application firewall.

Turkish translations of OWASP guides and other web application security related documents over 500 pages and counting

A benchmarking project that aims to statistically analyze web link extractors. It provides a good sum of input vectors to any extractor and presents the results. Check out the live app here.

SQLiBENCH is a benchmarking project of automatic sql injectors related to dumping databases. Check out the live app here. The project is sponsored by OWASP SoC 08.

MSALParser (pronounced \mi-säl\) implements necessary parsers and model objects to represent a ModSecurity Single Audit Log, hence the name MSAL. MSALParser is a PHP RPC end that will get mlogc's calls and parses them into objects and eventually write to a persistent data store.

ApacheLive (aka Haydar) project consists of a python script which was aimed to stress Apache web servers (httpd) using Keep-Alive parameters.

For most of the languages and frameworks, developers have to implement their own functions to defend against CSRF. AntiCsrf is a basic and light library for defending against CSRF for PHP applications.

FSF is a plug-in based freakin' simple fuzzer for fuzzing web applications and scraping data. It supports some basic stuff and missing some features however it has got some advanced RegEx capturing features for scraping data out of web applications.

MSALMobile, a basic windows mobile application and consuming MSALService, is a simple mobile ModSecurity log analyzer for Windows Mobile environment. See a video of MSALMobile in action on www.webguvenligi.org.

A playground for reflected xss test cases. The live project includes seven test cases ready to exploit. A legal and solid way to learn and apply xss skills. Moreover, a good way to test web application scanners on reflected xss testing...

Web.config file holds settings about related ASP.NET web application. This project analyzes a given Web.config file for security vulnerabilities with its 30+ checks. It's a command line too for now and produces a neat html based report.

Artifacts - OWASP DAY: on the topic of "Privacy in the 21st Century" - September 8 (Turkey 2007)

Presentations:

Discussion Answers:

Q1. What is the current state of Privacy on Web Application Security? Does it really matter? Is privacy what will drive radical changes in web application's security (ala PCI)?

A1. During the meeting an effort was made to clarify the meaning of privacy; 

- what are the key items that builds up to "privacy"?
- are we talking about the privacy of real people or should we also include the privacy of legal entities?
- is there really a solid line (or even a vague line) between confidentiality and privacy?

We defined privacy as confidentiality of the data; be it of a real person or a legal entity. But the key part is that privacy is "the ability to control the flow of one's own data". And which brings another principle: "need to know". Privacy is directly related to an individual or an organization. Confidentiality, however, is directly related to "information"... Privacy is a "result" and confidentiality is a tenet or a security mechanism.

Enough of these convulsions; The answer to the first question was a definite "YES". Participants were all agreed that "privacy" plays and will play the most important role in web security and its future.

Q2. Application side: what the data owner should be doing to protect the user's privacy? Should there be a law that states how to protect this information? What can we do to improve it?

A2. Most of the participants agreed that a law is a necessity. But, maybe, more important thing is to raise the awareness of the customers. Here we also had a discussion on the current status of the law on privacy? There are mainly three documents on privacy in Turkish law; 

* a directive on privacy in telecommunication, which happened to be inadequate (an assertion of a lawyer)
* a draft law on privacy from Department of Justice, which is still in the process of approval
* a recent (May 2007) law on siber crimes which happens to be similiar to the "Directive 2006/24/EC of the 
  European Parliament and of the Council" on the data retention. This law, however, still needs a few
  directives, which are about to be published.

Q3. Client side: what is the client's perception of privacy? How can a user trust a site about his own data treatment? Is the client nowadays safeguarded about a possible loss of privacy?

A3. As a first step there should be an "agreement" presented to the user by the application side. This wouldn't be enough so there should be regular inspections (a third eye) on these services. About "is the client nowadays safeguarded about a possible loss of privacy?" question, the answer was a definite "NO". Especially with the banks. Yes, there are a few cases of trials where the courts dictated a bank to compansate the loss of the victim, however, mostly this is not the case. Even there is a domain serving, founded by the victims of online banking crimes in Turkey.

Q4. What should OWASP be focusing on?

A4. As a suggestion, OWASP may provide a "web security tips" page, which can include a searchable gui on small programming tips to avoid security holes in web applications.

And a great idea of producing a "FixmeBank" application to cover the developer side of the story, as opposed to tester/attacker side (via WebGoat or HacmeBank), was suggested by Taygun Alban.

Q5. What would OWASP spend it's grant money? (note that new OWASP members can allocate some or all of their membership fees to specific projects)

A5. Some suggestions; . Printed booklets of Guide and Testing Guide. . OWASP CD with shiny labels . I'm afraid to say but... t-shirts

Q6. Should OWASP organize such 'OWASP Weeks' every quarter?

A6. OWASP should organize these events every 6 months or so :)

Next Event - OWASP DAY: on the topic of "Privacy in the 21st Century" - September 8 (Turkey 2007)
