Data normalization weaknesses
This document discusses weaknesses in data normalization that can lead to vulnerabilities. It covers issues at various levels including protocol (e.g. double URL encoding bypassing validation), filesystem (e.g. path traversal using unusual encodings), databases (e.g. truncation or encoding issues), and applications (e.g. bypassing input sanitization with multibyte encodings). The key message is that input validation needs to consider challenges across all these levels from protocols to storage to properly prevent attacks exploiting normalization weaknesses.

- 30. PHP string encoding http://www.php.net/manual/ language.types.string.php#language.types.string.details •String will be encoded in whatever fashion it is encoded in the script file • If Zend Multibyte is enabled, the script may be written in an arbitrary encoding (which is explicity declared or is detected) and then converted to a certain internal encoding, which is then the encoding that will be used for the string literals • State-dependent encodings where the same byte values can be used in initial and non-initial shift states may be problematic
- 31. Multibyte problems • Lengthsin chars or bytes? • State-dependent encodings • 0x0102 char • 0x0203 char • 0x01020203 two chars • But what about case when 0x0202 is valid char also? • Try to find 0x0202 in this string ;)
