ByWaf

ByWaf is a command-line tool for streamlining web application firewall auditing. It consists of a command-line interpreter and a set of plugins.

Introduction

Develop an application that streamlines the auditor's job when making a Pen Test. It's main fuction is to detect, evade and display vulnerabilities. The tool works using coding methods developed by our teammembers throughout their experience.


Description

The Bywaf application is built on Python's built-in cmd.Cmd class. Cmd is a lightweight command interpreter loop that provides several useful facilities for the developer, including overridable hook methods and easy addition of commands and help. For the user, it offers commandline editing with readline, including automatic tab completion of commands, command options and filenames.

Bywaf contains a sub-classed version of Cmd called Wafterpreter, which adds some important additions, including:

  - Loading and selecting plugins
  - Getting and setting global and per-plugin options
  - Additional methods exposing functionality to the plugins
  - Backgrounding jobs, ending running jobs and querying job status
  - Loading scripts from the the command-line or within the interpreter   
  - Loading, saving, showing and clearing the command history

Wafterpreter employs a simple plugin system consisting of python modules containing commands exposed to the user (functions starting with "do_") and a dictionary of user-modifiable options ("options").

A number of Wafterpreter methods have been exposed to plugins, allowing them to change the interpreter's behavior and access other modules' options.

For notifications of changes in plugin options, Bywaf supports callback functions. The Wafterpreter will call a function for a given plugin option if it begins with "set_"; for example, for an option like "FILENAME", the Wafterpreter will search for and call a set_FILENAME(), if it exists. The Wafterpreter will also search for and call "set_default()", if it exists, for any option that does not have a specific setter function. Failing these attempts, Wafterpreter will perform a direct assignment on the plugin's option.
