Introduction to Penetration Testing with a use case of LFI -> Shell. I talk about the mindset required to be a good tester, and show places many testers and automated tools stop and how to go further.
VAPT defines the security measures that are supposed to be put in place to address cyber threats. There are plenty of strategies that can be adopted in Pen Testing which include Black Box Pen Test, White Box Pen Text, Hidden Pen Test, Internal Pen Test, and Gray Box Testing. It is mandatory that VAPT is conducted in order to deter cyber-attacks that are on the upsurge daily. These VAPT ranges from Mobile, Network Penetration Testing, and Vulnerability Assessments.
There are many merits to VAPT in your business which include early error detection in program codes which will prevent cyber attacks. Most companies lose billions of dollars due to cyber-attacks. With VAPT, it guarantees that all loopholes are tightened before an intrusion transpires.
This presentation will provide an overview of what a penetration test is, why companies pay for them, and what role they play in most IT security programs. It will also include a brief overview of the common skill sets and tools used by today’s security professionals. Finally, it will offer some basic advice for getting started in penetration testing. This should be interesting to aspiring pentesters trying to gain a better understanding of how penetration testing fits into the larger IT security world.

Application Security - Your Success Depends on itWSO2
Traditional information security mainly revolves around network and operating system (OS) level protection. Regardless of the level of security guarding those aspects, the system can be penetrated and the entire deployment can be brought down if your application's security isn't taken into serious consideration. Information security should ideally start at the application level, before network and OS level security is ensured. To achieve this, security needs to be integrated into the application at the software development phase.
In this session, Dulanja will discuss the following:
The importance of application security - why network and OS security is insufficient.
Challenges in securing your application.
Making security part of the development lifecycle.
Vulnerability assessment & Penetration testing Basics Mohammed Adam
In these days of widespread Internet usage, security is of prime importance. The almost universal use of mobile and Web applications makes systems vulnerable to cyber attacks. Vulnerability assessment can help identify the loopholes in a system while penetration testing is a proof-of-concept approach to actually explore and exploit a vulnerability.

Conducting regular security assessments on the organizational network and computer systems has become a vital part of protecting information-computing assets. Security assessments are a proactive and offensive posture towards information security as compared to the traditional reactive and defensive stance normally implemented with the use of Access Control-Lists (ACLs) and firewalls.
Too effectively conduct a security assessment so it is beneficial to an organization, a proven methodology must be followed so the assessors and assesses are on the same page.
This presentation will evaluate the benefits of credential scanning, scanning in a virtual environment, distributed scanning as well as vulnerability management.

Vulnerability Management: What You Need to Know to Prioritize RiskAlienVault
Abstract:
While vulnerability assessments are an essential part of understanding your risk profile, it's simply not realistic to expect to eliminate all vulnerabilities from your environment. So, when your scan produces a long list of vulnerabilities, how do you prioritize which ones to remediate first? By data criticality? CVSS score? Asset value? Patch availability? Without understanding the context of the vulnerable systems on your network, you may waste time checking things off the list without really improving security.
Join AlienVault for this session to learn:
*The pros & cons of different types of vulnerability scans - passive, active, authenticated, unauthenticated
*Vulnerability scores and how to interpret them
*Best practices for prioritizing vulnerability remediation
*How threat intelligence can help you pinpoint the vulnerabilities that matter most

Some old and new tips, tricks and tools for rapid web application security assessment (black and white box). They are useful in various situtations: pentest with very limited time or huge scope, competition, bugbounty program, etc.
Applications increasingly talk to each other behind the scenes via APIs. Google’s recent acquisition of Apigee, an API management company, is an indicator of the continued importance of APIs. APIs are like building blocks, providing services and data that can be connected with other APIs to build powerful customized apps. However, developing and testing an API can be challenging because there is no built-in interface, breaking changes can cause widespread outages, sensitive data may be exposed or accessed, and accepted agile testing paradigms can be difficult to adapt to APIs. This session is an introduction to restful APIs and how to test them for security, performance, functionality, and backwards-compatibility risks.

Talk given by Max Feldman, Product Security Engineer at Salesforce, at AppSec USA.
One challenging aspect of achieving software security is the struggle to catch up with the speed of development and deployment. We built Providence with the goal of preventing obvious bugs from ever being deployed into production.
Providence is a lightweight and scalable tool which finds bugs and anti-patterns of varying complexity from code commits, and we’ve used it to prevent vulnerabilities ranging from XSS, to access control issues, to XXE. It works by continuously monitoring and pulling commits from version control systems and scanning them for bugs with rules defined in plugins. Additional plugins are easy to create and deploy, which has allowed for quick reaction to new bugs or problems as they are discovered.
Providence is easily integrated with SDLC workflows or bug-tracking tools, and we will discuss how we have integrated it in-house in an unobtrusive manner. This model of addressing issues also provides relative immediacy of resolution; on average, potential problems found by Providence are resolved more quickly than other vulnerabilities because developers are presented the issues right after they commit the code, instead of weeks to months later.
We are currently in the process of open-sourcing Providence in order to share the tool with the DevOps/security community (or any interested parties). This talk will cover the internals of Providence, its engine and plugin architecture (including examples of plugins and their ease of creation), as well as its integration with our SDLC and the faster and more efficient responses we’ve achieved as a result. We’re continuing to build new plugins and features, and we’re excited see what ideas others may have in mind!
Start with passing tests (tdd for bugs) v0.5 (22 sep 2016)Dinis Cruz
"Turning TDD upside down - For bugs, always start with a passing test" - Common workflow on TDD is to write failed tests. The problem with this approach is that it only works for a very specific scenario (when fixing bugs). This presentation will present a different workflow which will make the coding and testing of those tests much easier, faster, simpler, secure and thorough'

Team Foundation Server (TFS) has been around for over a decade now(!) and Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) has been around for several years. One of the reasons TFS/VSTS has been successful for so many years lies in the extensibility model provided by Microsoft. VSTS/TFS provides a large set of capabilities out of the box but no platform can be everything to everyone. With a rich extensibility model, however, you can shape, mold and extend VSTS/TFS to suit your organization's specific needs. In this talk, we will cover the rich set of REST APIs that Microsoft provides for extending VSTS/TFS. We will take a look at the capabilities that are currently available as well as address some of the features that have yet to make it into the REST APIs. We'll take a look at some code examples and patterns that make it easy to integrate with the REST APIs so you can quickly get up and running with your own customizations.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

• Overview
• Enumeration
• Tool Output
• Do We Stop Here?
• Custom Scripts
• Wpscan
• Online Research
• Testing Exploitation
• PHP LFI
• Code Execution, Yes Please!
3. Overview
• This session will cover the mindset I follow
when approaching a web application
• I am going to show where many might stop,
and what happens when you push further
• These types of techniques can be applied to
any web application
5. Methodology Overview
• Pre-Engagement Activities
– Hammer out all the details to conduct the test (Schedule,
Scoping, Rules of Engagement, Formal Permission, etc.)
• Information Gathering and Reconnaissance
– Depends on type of test and information you are given
(Organization name, CIDR, list of URLs, source code, etc.)
• Automated Testing
• Manual Testing and Validation
• Reporting
• Remediation Support
7. Mindset is Key
• Think like an attacker and see things through a
different lens:
– Upload an avatar? Hmmm add code?
– Download a report? Hmm directory traversal for
another file?
• Confidence
– Without it you’ll very easily hit a wall and stop
– I tell myself a vulnerability is here I just need to find it
10. Custom Scripts
• Web Application testing requires custom
scripting….really no way getting around it:
11. Custom Scripts Cont.
• Making web requests with a scripting language
isn’t too difficult
• Check out tutorials online and try to automate
web requests
• Making a tool for CVE-2012-1823 is a good use
case because you need to make a POST request
and modify several header values
– If you can write a tool for this CVE, it demonstrates
concepts that can be applied to many different CVEs
19. PHP LFI…Now What?
• What can be done with a PHP LFI?
• It depends on what function is leading to the LFI
vulnerability (include(), readfile(), etc.)
• PHP functions like include() will execute PHP code in
the included file
– Yay code execution through php snippets!
• PHP functions like readfile() will only display output
– We have more work to do
23. Summary
• Tools may not give you the answer
• Very easy to hit a hurdle and quit
• You need to be curious/creative and
constantly push to get more information
• Confidence and mindset goes a long way
