Os Command Injection Attack
OS command injection vulnerabilities occur when user input is not sanitized before being passed to a shell command interpreter. This allows attackers to inject arbitrary commands that will be executed by the server, potentially compromising the server or application data. Command injection vulnerabilities are serious because they may enable attackers to use the server as a platform for launching attacks against other systems. Commix is an open source tool that can detect and exploit command injection vulnerabilities.
Getting Started with Runtime Security on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
This document discusses runtime security on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). It begins by introducing AKS and how it simplifies Kubernetes deployment and management. It then discusses the security concerns with containers and the need for runtime security. Runtime security involves monitoring activity within containers to detect unwanted behaviors. The document outlines how Sysdig provides runtime security for AKS through its agents that collect syscall data and Kubernetes audit logs. It analyzes this data using policies to detect anomalies and threats across containers, hosts, and Kubernetes clusters. Sysdig also integrates with other tools like Falco and Anchore to provide breadth and depth of security.
OWASP Top 10 Web Application Vulnerabilities
This document provides an overview of the OWASP Top 10 Risk Rating Methodology. It explains how risks are rated based on four factors: threat agent, attack vector, technical impact, and business impact. Each factor is given a rating of 1-3 (easy to difficult) and these ratings are multiplied together to calculate an overall weighted risk rating. An example of how this methodology would be applied to an SQL injection vulnerability is also provided.
API Security Best Practices and Guidelines
View on-demand: https://wso2.com/library/webinars/api-security-best-practices-and-guidelines/
Modern enterprises are increasingly adopting APIs, exceeding all predictions. With more businesses investing in microservices and the increased consumption of cloud APIs, you need to secure beyond just a handful of well-known APIs. You will need to secure a higher number of internal and external endpoints.
At the same time, security itself is a broad area and vendors implement a number of seemingly similar standards and patterns, making it very difficult for consumers to settle on the best option for securing APIs. The sheer number of options can be very confusing.
There is much to learn about API security, regardless of whether you are a novice or expert and it’s extremely important that you do because security is an integral part of any development project, including API ecosystems.
This webinar will deep-dive into the importance of API security, API security patterns, and how identity and access management (IAM) fit in the ecosystem.
DURING THE WEBINAR, WE WILL COVER:
Managed APIs
OAuth 2.0 and API security patterns
Introduction to WSO2 Identity Server
How we align with OWASP API security guidelines

Insufficient data encoding occurs when special characters in input data are not properly encoded before being processed or output. This can lead to injection attacks like SQL injection or cross-site scripting attacks. To prevent this, all data from external sources, both on input and output, should be encoded according to the interpreter that will use the data. Common interpreters are HTML, JavaScript, and SQL, and proper encoding prevents attacks by changing the meaning of special characters.

The OpenVAS Manager receives tasks from the administrator and keeps a history of past scans.
Bug Bounty Guide Tools and Resource.pdf
Bug Bounty Guide | Tools and Resource
What is Bug Bounty?
A bug bounty is a program offered by organizations, typically websites, software developers, and technology companies, to incentivize ethical hackers and security researchers to identify and report security vulnerabilities or bugs in their systems or products.
These programs are designed to encourage responsible disclosure of security issues, and typically offer rewards or bounties to individuals who identify and report such issues. Rewards may range from monetary compensation to recognition, swag or even a job offer.
Bug bounties are a way for organizations to crowdsource security testing, identify and address security vulnerabilities in their systems and products, and ultimately enhance the security of their technology. Additionally, bug bounty programs provide a way for security researchers to earn money while helping to improve the security of online systems and applications.
How to Start Bug Bounty?
1. Learn the basics: Familiarize yourself with the fundamentals of web application security and the common vulnerabilities that exist. Some good resources for learning include the OWASP Top 10, web application security blogs, and online courses or tutorials.
2. Choose a bug bounty platform: There are many different bug bounty platforms available, such as HackerOne, Bugcrowd, and Synack. Choose a platform that aligns with your interests and skill level, and create an account.
3. Familiarize yourself with the platform’s rules and policies: Before you start testing, make sure you understand the rules and policies of the platform you’re using. This will help ensure that you don’t accidentally violate any terms and conditions.
4. Select a target: Choose a target that you’re interested in testing, such as a website or application. Make sure it’s within the scope of the bug bounty program you’re participating in.
5. Start testing: Use a combination of manual and automated testing techniques to identify potential vulnerabilities. Some common testing techniques include scanning for open ports, fuzzing parameters, and testing for injection vulnerabilities.
6. Submit vulnerabilities: Once you’ve identified a vulnerability, submit it to the bug bounty program for verification and reward. Make sure to follow the platform’s guidelines for submitting vulnerabilities, and provide clear and detailed information about the issue.
7. Stay engaged: Participate in the bug bounty community, ask questions, and learn from other researchers. This will help you improve your skills and stay up to date with the latest trends and techniques in bug bounty hunting.

Self-Protecting Technology for Web Applications
This document discusses self-protecting technology for web applications. It proposes using runtime application self-protection (RASP) technology to monitor applications and block attacks. RASP would allow applications to protect themselves from threats without needing updates. The document outlines two approaches - using a self-protecting tool placed inside the application or outside it. It provides examples of how RASP could detect suspicious login attempts or SQL injections and prevent unauthorized access. The proposed system is said to enhance security without requiring changes to application code or databases.
Owasp Top 10-2013
The document summarizes the OWASP Top 10 security risks for web applications. It provides details on each risk such as the types of SQL injection attacks and how to prevent injection flaws. For each risk, it discusses how to determine if an application is vulnerable and recommendations for prevention, including input validation, authentication, authorization, encryption, and keeping components updated. The top risks are injection, broken authentication, XSS, insecure object references, security misconfiguration, sensitive data exposure, missing access controls, CSRF, use of vulnerable components, and unvalidated redirects.

Deep Learning based Threat / Intrusion detection system
The document describes a proposed intrusion/threat detection system with the following key components:
1. A feature engineering module to extract relevant features from organizational data like employee information and online activities.
2. A text processing and topic modeling module to analyze communications data and identify confidential information.
3. An internal threat detection system using deep learning to detect threats in real-time with a risk score and predefined response policies.
4. An external threat detection system using signatures and anomaly detection to enforce actions against external threats.
Module 20 (buffer overflows)
buffer overflow occurs when a program or process attempts to write more data to a fixed length block of memory, or buffer, than the buffer is allocated to hold. ... Exploiting a buffer overflow allows an attacker to control or crash the process or to modify its internal variables

Solution
1) Threat to intellectual property: Hacking , After conducting a forensic review of the drives,
Bailey(CEO of IT company) learned that intruders had been lurking on two of his company’s
servers for almost a year. These hackers, who were traced to a university in Beijing, had entered
the company’s extranet through an unpatched vulnerability in the Solaris operating system. As
far as Bailey could tell, they hadn’t accessed any classified information. But they were able to
view mountains of intellectual property, including design information and product specifications
related to transportation and communications systems, along with information belonging to the
company’s customers and partners.
Activist hackers, or hacktivists, can also be a danger to companies. For example, early last year
members of Anonymous, the hacker collective, copied and publicly released sensitive files of
H.B. Gary Federal, a security company.
Cpoyrights deviation or piracy :
Intellectual property theft involves robbing people or companies of their ideas, inventions, and
creative expressions—known as “intellectual property”—which can include everything from
trade secrets and proprietary products and parts to movies, music, and software.
It is a growing threat—especially with the rise of digital technologies and Internet file sharing
networks. And much of the theft takes place overseas, where laws are often lax and enforcement
is more difficult. All told, intellectual property theft costs U.S. businesses billions of dollars a
year and robs the nation of jobs and tax revenues.
Preventing intellectual property theft is a priority of the FBI’s criminal investigative program. It
specifically focuses on the theft of trade secrets and infringements on products that can impact
consumers’ health and safety, such as counterfeit aircraft, car, and electronic parts. Key to the
program’s success is linking the considerable resources and efforts of the private sector with law
enforcement partners on local, state, federal, and international levels.

CISA GOV - Seven Steps to Effectively Defend ICS
INTRODUCTION
Cyber intrusions into US Critical Infrastructure systems are happening with increased frequency. For many industrial control systems (ICSs), it’s not a matter of if an intrusion will take place, but when. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2015, 295 incidents were reported to ICS-CERT, and many more went unreported or undetected. The capabilities of our adversaries have been demonstrated and cyber incidents are increasing in frequency and complexity. Simply building a
network with a hardened perimeter is no longer adequate. Securing ICSs against the modern threat requires well-planned and well-implemented strategies that will provide network defense
teams a chance to quickly and effectively detect, counter, and expel an adversary. This paper presents seven strategies that can be implemented today to counter common exploitable
weaknesses in “as-built” control systems.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Secure Code Warrior - Robust error checking
- 1. Robust Error Checking Application Security Fundamentals by Secure Code Warrior Limited is licensed under CC BY-ND 4.0
- 2. What’s the concept about? Sensitive data, such as stack traces or information about infrastructure is leaked through error messages. What could happen? An attacker could be provided with sensitive information that could help identify weak spots in the application. These weak spots could be investigated to leverage attacks against the application. How to implement it? When an unexpected error occurs, users should be presented with as little information as possible. The application should close in a controlled and secure way.
- 3. Robust Error Checking Understanding the concept An application has implemented robust error checking that handles errors properly and that does not provide too much information. An attacker tries breaking the application by providing unexpected data to an input field hereby forcing an error. Because no information can be inferred from the error message, the attacker can not infer anything about the application’s internals or what caused the error. A generic error message is provided to the end-user, but detailed information is logged on the server. Properly handling exceptions Web server Set-cookie: 3’(@#ù£µ$* OOPS! An unexpected error has occurred, please contact the system administrator.
- 4. Robust Error Checking What could happen with the concept? An attacker attacks an application where exception handling has not been implemented correctly. By providing input field with unexpected data, he is able to force an error from the application. The attacker now knows more about the application: what frameworks are used, what database connections and where did he break the application. An error page with stack trace information is returned to the attacker. Unhandled exceptions Web serverSet-cookie: 3’(@#ù£µ$*
- 5. Robust Error Checking Typical controls Use generic error messages to inform users of exceptions. Do not disclose private information. No stack traces, internal IP or user information, library information, etc. Write error information to a log for further analysis. Make sure the system is in a clean state after failure. Roll back transactions, release resources. Although the “Robust Error Checking” concept will not stop attackers, it will make it much harder for an attacker to analyze the inner-workings of the system.
