− | ABSTRACT
| + | __NOTOC__ |
− | | + | <headertabs /> |
− | Modern web application frameworks are designed for developer productivity and performance. They are highly scalable, object-oriented, and can be used to create a usable web site in a matter of minutes. However, these attributes often encourage programming practices that make managing state difficult for a typical programmer.
| |
− | | |
− | Web application developers must carefully manage access to all resources that can shared by threads. Global variables, session variables, back-end systems, and application-specific data stores are common examples of such resources.
| |
− | | |
− | Concurrency flaws result when access to shared resources is not managed properly - something that is easy to do when the development environment purposefully encapsulates and abstracts the resources that need to be managed! When manipulating those resources carries a security impact, the attackers take notice.
| |
− | | |
− | Each prevalent class of security flaw shares a common attribute: mistakes happen when doing the right thing is difficult. It is our opinion that concurrency flaws, especially in the context of web applications, share this attribute. This presentation will provide insight into the ease with which concurrency flaws can be introduced into systems, offer guidance on evaluating the security impact of such flaws, and discuss strategies for eliminating such flaws that will be helpful to developers and testers alike.

| |
− | Thomas Ptacek, Matasano Security
| |
− | | |
− | Where modern network architecture meets legacy application design, we get "The Port 80 Problem": vendors wrapping every conceivable network protocol in a series of POSTs and calling them "safe". These "Webapps In Name Only" are a nightmare for application security specialists.
| |
− | | |
− | In this talk, we'll discuss, with case studies, how tools from protocol reverse engineering can be brought to bear on web application security, covering the following areas:
| |
− | | |
− | - Locating and Decompiling Java and .NET Code
| |
− | - Structure and Interpretation of Binary Protocols in HTTP
| |
− | - Protocol Debugging Tools
| |
− | - Web App Crypto Tricks

| |
− | Cory Scott, ABN AMRO
| |
− | | |
− | A short presentation on the threat models and attack vectors for token-less schemes used to reduce the risk of password-only authentication, but yet do not implement "true" two-factor technologies for logistical costs or user acceptance reasons. We'll go over how device fingerprinting and IP geo-location work and discuss the pros and cons of the solutions.
