Defense Needed Web application security is today's most overlooked
aspect of securing the enterprise
Hackers are concentrating their efforts on websites and web applications
Web apps are an attractive target for cyber criminality, cyber warfare and hacktivism
What is bWAPP? | © 2014 Malik Mesellem, all rights reserved.
Defense Needed Why are web applications an attractive target?
Easily available via the Internet (24/7)
Mission-critical business applications with sensitive data
Often direct access to backend data
Traditional firewalls and SSL provide no protection
Many applications are custom-made == vulnerable

bWAPP == defense bWAPP, or a buggy Web APPlication
Deliberately insecure web application, includes allmajor known web vulnerabilities
Helps security enthusiasts, developers and studentsto discover and to prevent issues
Prepares one for successful penetration testing and ethical hacking projects
What is bWAPP? | © 2014 Malik Mesellem, all rights reserved.
bWAPP == defense Web application security is not just installing a firewall,
or scanning a site for ‘potential’ issues
Black-box penetration testing, simulating real attack scenarios, is still needed! Confirms potential vulnerabilities, and excludes false positives
Guarantees that your defense measures are working effectively
bWAPP helps to improve your security-testing skills…

Penetration Testing Penetration testing, or pentesting
Method of evaluating computer, network or application security by simulating an attack
Active analysis of potential vulnerabilities by usingethical hacking techniques
Penetration tests are sometimes a component of afull security audit
What is bWAPP? | © 2014 Malik Mesellem, all rights reserved.
Web App Penetration Testing Web application pentesting is focusing on evaluating
the security of a web application
Application is tested for known web vulnerabilities
Manual, automatic and semi-automatic tests
Source code analysis and web server configuration review as an option
What is bWAPP? | © 2014 Malik Mesellem, all rights reserved.
Web App Penetration Testing It’s all about identifying, exploiting, and reporting
vulnerabilities
Some considerations… Commercial tools vs. open source tools
Not a best practice to use only one tool
Most commercial scanners don’t exploit
False positives are not allowed!
People don’t like auto-generated reports

SQL Injection SQL injection is very common in web applications
Occurs when user input is sent to a SQL interpreteras part of a query
The attacker tricks the interpreter into executing unintended SQL queries

Cross-Site Scripting Cross-Site Scripting, or XSS, occurs when an attacker
injects a browser script into a web application
Insufficient validation of user-supplied data
Dangerous when it is stored permanently!
XSS can lead to Website defacements

Denial-of-Service Denial-of-Service attack, or DoS attack
An attacker attempts to prevent legitimate users from accessing the application, server or network
Consumes network bandwidth, server sockets, threads, or CPU resources
Distributed Denial-of-Service attack, or DDoS
Popular techniques used by hacktivists
What is bWAPP? | © 2014 Malik Mesellem, all rights reserved.
Denial-of-Service Newer layer 7 DoS attacks are more powerful!
“Low-bandwidth application layer DoS”
Advantages of layer 7 DoS Legitimate TCP/UDP connections, difficult to differentiate from normal
traffic
Requires lesser number of connections, possibility to stop a web server from a single attack
Reach resource limits of services, regardless of the hardware capabilities of the server
What is bWAPP? | © 2014 Malik Mesellem, all rights reserved.
Denial-of-Service Layer 7 DoS methods
HTTP Slow Headers
HTTP Slow POST
HTTP Slow Reading
Apache Range Header
SSL/TLS Renegotiation

attacker functionality on a web server
Making use of server-side scripting languages likePHP, ASP, ASPX, JSP, CFM, Perl,...
Web shell functionalities File transfers
