ACL presentation Hannes Pappenberg on Dutch Joomla!day 5 April 2008Wilco Jansen
The document discusses Joomla's new access control system being introduced in version 1.6. It overviews some limitations of the current user and access management system, including a limited number of fixed user groups. The new system aims to allow for infinite user groups, adjustable rights for each group, and integrate access control at the content level. It will implement this using Access Control Lists to define permissions for users and groups down to the granular content item level.
The document discusses ways to transform and improve the Joomla dashboard through extensions and new admin templates. There are two main routes: 1) using extensions like NoNumber to make improvements to the standard interface, and 2) entirely new interfaces like AdminPraise that provide alternative dashboards. It highlights several extensions and admin templates that offer updated interfaces with new features and designs. The author argues that ultimately Joomla would benefit from a unified, contextually aware interface that is developed through contributions from the community.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

33. Joomla! 1.6 Access Control
View Access Level
Access Level defines who can View
content from the Frontend. In 1.5,
default is “Public” and can be
changed to “Registered” or
“Special.”
Recommendations for Joomla! 1.6:
Build list of Access Level values from the
list of System and Custom Group Names.
Default Access Level to Parent value(s).
(Remove default in Global Configuration).
Remove Access Column in all List Views
since it is no longer required to be a
single value. The Access Listbox should
remain allowing identification of content
for that selected Access Level (Group).

automatically add a View Access Rule for the

enable search and selection of Group
Members. Note: Use Group Member Widget
with Group Name field.
If additional changes are desired for the new
Group, those changes should be made in the
User Manager to ensure proper access.
This Widget should be available everywhere
the Access List selection is required.
