Checklist for Web Site Programming Vulnerabilities

问题


Watching SO come online has been quite an education for me. I'd like to make a checklist of various vunerabilities and exploits used against web sites, and what programming techniques can be used to defend against them.

  • What categories of vunerabilities?
    • crashing site
    • breaking into server
    • breaking into other people's logins
    • spam
    • sockpuppeting, meatpuppeting
    • etc...
  • What kind of defensive programming techniques?
  • etc...

From the Open Web Application Security Project:

  1. The OWASP Top Ten vulnerabilities (pdf)
  2. For a more painfully exhaustive list: Category:Vulnerability

The top ten are:

  1. Cross-site scripting (XSS)
  2. Injection flaws (SQL injection, script injection)
  3. Malicious file execution
  4. Insecure direct object reference
  5. Cross-site request forgery (XSRF)
  6. Information leakage and improper error handling
  7. Broken authentication and session management
  8. Insecure cryptographic storage
  9. Insecure communications
  10. Failure to restrict URL access

I second the OWASP info as being a valuable resource. The following may be of interest as well, notably the attack patterns:

  • CERT Top 10 Secure Coding Practices
  • Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification
  • Attack Patterns
  • Secure Programming for Linux and Unix
  • A Taxonomy of Coding Errors that Affect Security
  • Secure Programming with Static Analysis Presentation

Obviously test every field for vulnerabilities:

  • SQL - escape strings (e.g. mysql_real_escape_string)
  • XSS
  • HTML being printed from input fields (a good sign of XSS usually)
  • Anything else thatis not the specific purpose that field was created for

Search for infinite loops (the only indirect thing (if a lot of people found it accidentally) that could kill a server really).

Some prevention techniques:

XSS

  • If you take any parameters/input from the user and ever plan on outputting it, whether in a log or a web page, sanitize it (strip/escape anything resembling HTML, quotes, javascript...) If you print the current URI of a page within itself, sanitize! Even printing PHP_SELF, for example, is unsafe. Sanitize! Reflective XSS comes mostly from unsanitized page parameters.

  • If you take any input from the user and save it or print it, warn them if anything dangerous/invalid is detected and have them re-input. an IDS is good for detection (such as PHPIDS.) Then sanitize before storage/printing. Then when you print something from storage/database, sanitize again! Input -> IDS/sanitize -> store -> sanitize -> output

  • use a code scanner during development to help spot potentially vulnerable code.

XSRF

  • Never use GET request for destructive functionality, i.e. deleting a post. Instead, only accept POST requests. GET makes it extra easy for hackery.
  • Checking the referrer to make sure the request came from your site does not work. It's not hard to spoof the referrer.
  • Use a random hash as a token that must be present and valid in every request, and that will expire after a while. Print the token in a hidden form field and check it on the server side when the form is posted. Bad guys would have to supply the correct token in order to forge a request, and if they managed to get the real token, it would need to be before it expired.

SQL injection

  • your ORM or db abstraction class should have sanitizing methods - use them, always. If you're not using an ORM or db abstraction class... you should be.



回答5:


SQL injection




回答6:


XSS (Cross Site Scripting) Attacks




回答7:


Easy to oversee and easy to fix: the sanitizing of data received from the client side. Checking for things such as ';' can help in preventing malicious code being injected into your application.

G'day,

A good static analysis tool for security is FlawFinder written by David Wheeler. It does a good job looking for various security exploits,

However, it doesn't replace having a knowledgable someone read through your code. As David says on his web page, "A fool with a tool is still a fool!"

HTH.

cheers, Rob

You can get good firefox addons to test multiple flaws and vulnerabilities like xss and sql injections from Security Compass. Too bad they doesn't work on firefox 3.0. I hope that those will be updated soon.
