Account credentials and session tokens are often not properly protected, allowing unauthorized access to user accounts. Flaws in authentication and session management can undermine security controls and privacy. Attackers exploit weaknesses like ineffective logout processes, password management, and session timeouts to hijack user sessions by stealing or guessing credentials and session tokens. Application developers must implement secure authentication, strong password policies, session management best practices like early session expiration, and logging to prevent such attacks.

Web application firewalls (WAFs) examine traffic beyond IP and TCP headers to perform deep packet inspection and detect known application vulnerabilities without requiring code modifications. A typical WAF architecture filters network traffic and monitors sessions. WAFs can stop attacks before reaching web servers by filtering at the application layer. They provide compensating controls to protect faulty code and allow resources to focus elsewhere by securing applications at the network level. WAFs are useful for custom code without developers, vendor code with limited auditing, and legacy systems, particularly for government, healthcare, retail, and manufacturing.
The document discusses web application security and provides an overview of common vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and cross-site request forgery (CSRF). It summarizes the OWASP Top 10 list of most critical web app security risks, including injection flaws, broken authentication, sensitive data exposure, and more. The document also offers best practices for developing more securely, like using prepared statements, validating and sanitizing input, and implementing authentication and session management properly.
Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) is a type of malicious attack that tricks a user into unknowingly executing unwanted actions on a web application. The attacker creates hidden HTTP requests that get executed in the victim's browser using their authentication credentials. This allows the attacker to perform sensitive functions like changing passwords, making purchases, or posting comments on the victim's behalf. Defenses include using secret tokens or custom headers to validate requests and prevent CSRF attacks. The Firefox add-on CsFire also helps protect users by removing authentication information from cross-domain requests.
The document discusses common security threats such as URL spoofing, man-in-the-middle attacks, cross-frame scripting, SQL injection, rainbow table matching, denial of service attacks, cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, brute force attacks, and dictionary attacks. For each threat, it describes variations, prevention methods such as input validation, access control, and encryption, and detection techniques like monitoring for anomalous behavior.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
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).

4. ★ A code injection happens when an attacker
sends invalid data to the web application
with the intention to make it do something
that the application was not designed/
programmed to do.
★ String query = “SELECT * FROM accounts
WHERE custID = ‘” +
request.getParameter(“id”) + “‘”;

Injection
6. How to Prevent SQL Injection
★ Use Positive or whitelist server side input validation
★ Use a Web Application Firewall
★ Escape user supplied inputs
★ Use Stored Procedures
8. ★ This vulnerability can allow an attacker to
use manual and/or automatic methods to
try to gain control over any account they
want in a system – or even worse – to gain
complete control over the system.
★ The second most common form of this flaw
is allowing users to brute force
username/password combination against
admin pages.

Broken Authentication
9. How to detect Broken Authentication pages
Sponsored by
★ Permits automated attacks such as credential stuffing, where the attacker
has a list of valid usernames and passwords.
★ Uses plain text, encrypted, or weakly hashed passwords.
★ Has missing or ineffective multi-factor authentication.
★ Exposes session IDs in the URL (e.g., URL rewriting).
★ Does not rotate session IDs after successful login.
★ Does not properly invalidate session IDs. User sessions or authentication
tokens (particularly single sign-on (SSO) tokens) aren’t properly
invalidated during logout or a period of inactivity.
A web application contains a broken authentication vulnerability if it:
10. How to Prevent Broken Authentication
★ Where possible, implement multi-factor authentication to prevent automated,
credential stuffing, brute force, and stolen credential reuse attacks.
★ Do not ship or deploy with any default credentials, particularly for admin users.
★ Implement weak-password checks, such as testing new or changed passwords
against a list of the top 10,000 worst passwords.
★ Limit or increasingly delay failed login attempts. Log all failures and alert
administrators when credential stuffing, brute force, or other attacks are detected.
★ Use a server-side, secure, built-in session manager that generates a new random
session ID with high entropy after login. Session IDs should not be in the URL. Ids
should also be securely stored and invalidated after logout, idle, and absolute
timeouts.

12. ★ It consists of compromising data that should
have been protected.
★ Some sensitive data that requires protection is:
○ Credentials
○ Credit card numbers
○ Social Security Numbers
○ Medical information
○ Personally identifiable information (PII)
○ Other personal information

Sensitive Data Exposure
13. States of Data
Sponsored by
Stored Data:
Data at Rest
Transmitted Data:
transmitted internally
between servers, or to
web browsers
Data in Use:
Currently being
accessed
15. How to Prevent Sensitive Data Exposure
★ Classify data processed, stored, or transmitted by an application.
★ Identify which data is sensitive according to privacy laws, regulatory
requirements, or business needs.
★ Apply controls as per the classification.
★ Don’t store sensitive data unnecessarily.
★ Discard it as soon as possible or use PCI DSS compliant tokenization or
even truncation. Data that is not retained cannot be stolen.
★ Make sure to encrypt all sensitive data at rest.
★ Ensure up-to-date and strong standard algorithms, protocols, and keys
are in place; use proper key management.
16. How to Prevent Sensitive Data Exposure contd...
★ Encrypt all data in transit with secure protocols such as TLS with
perfect forward secrecy (PFS) ciphers, cipher prioritization by the server,
and secure parameters.
★ Enforce encryption using directives like HTTP Strict Transport Security
(HSTS).
★ Disable caching for responses that contain sensitive data.
★ Store passwords using strong adaptive and salted hashing functions
with a work factor (delay factor), such as Argon2, scrypt, bcrypt, or
PBKDF2.
★ Verify independently the effectiveness of configuration and settings.
18. ★ This attack occurs when XML input
containing a reference to an external
entity is processed by a weakly
configured XML parser.
★ They mostly attack:
○ Vulnerable XML processors if malicious
actors can upload XML or include
hostile content in an XML document
○ Vulnerable code
○ Vulnerable dependencies
○ Vulnerable integrations

XML External Entities (XXE)
19. How to Prevent XML External Entities
★ Whenever possible, use less complex data formats ,such as JSON, and
avoid serialization of sensitive data.
★ Patch or upgrade all XML processors and libraries in use by the application
or on the underlying operating system.
★ Use dependency checkers (update SOAP to SOAP 1.2 or higher).
★ Disable XML external entity and DTD processing in all XML parsers in the
application, as per the OWASP Cheat Sheet ‘XXE Prevention.’
★ Implement positive (“whitelisting”) server-side input validation, filtering, or
sanitization to prevent hostile data within XML documents, headers, or
nodes.
★ Verify that XML or XSL file upload functionality validates incoming XML
using XSD validation or similar.
21. ★ In website security, access control means
putting a limit on what sections or pages
visitors can reach, depending on their
needs.
★ Examples of Broken access control;
○ Access to a hosting control / administrative
panel
○ Access to a server via FTP / SFTP / SSH
○ Access to a website’s administrative panel
○ Access to other applications on your server
○ Access to a database

Broken Access Control
22. How to Reduce the risk of Broken Access Control
★ Employ least privileged concepts – apply a role appropriate to the task and
only for the amount of time necessary to complete said task and no more.
★ Get rid of accounts you don’t need or whose user no longer requires it.
★ Audit your servers and websites – who is doing what, when, and why.
★ If possible, apply multi-factor authentication to all your access points.
★ Disable access points until they are needed in order to reduce your access
windows.
★ Remove unnecessary services off your server.
★ Check applications that are externally accessible versus applications that
are tied to your network.
★ If you are developing a website, bear in mind that a production box should
not be the place to develop, test, or push updates without testing.
23. How to Prevent Broken Access Control
★ Implement access control mechanisms once and reuse them throughout the
application, including minimizing CORS usage.
★ Model access controls should enforce record ownership, rather than
accepting that the user can create, read, update, or delete any record.
★ Unique application business limit requirements should be enforced by
domain models.
★ Disable web server directory listing and ensure file metadata (e.g. .git) and
backup files are not present within web roots.
★ Log access control failures, alert admins when appropriate (e.g. repeated
failures).
★ Rate limit API and controller access to minimize the harm from automated
attack tooling.
★ JWT tokens should be invalidated on the server after logout.

25. ★ Security misconfigurations can occur in the
following places
○ Unpatched flaws
○ Default configurations
○ Unused pages
○ Unprotected files and directories
○ Unnecessary services

Security Misconfigurations
26. Places Misconfigurations can Occur
Sponsored by
★ Security Misconfigurations can happen at any level of
stack:
○ Network services
○ Platform
○ Web server
○ Application server
○ Database
○ Frameworks
○ Custom code
○ Pre-installed virtual machines
○ Containers
○ Storage
27. How to Prevent Security Misconfigurations
★ Development, QA, and production environments should all be
configured identically, with different credentials used in each
environment. Automate this process in order to minimize the effort
required to set up a new secure environment.
★ Remove or do not install unused features and frameworks.
★ Review cloud storage permissions, security notes, updates, and patches.
★ A segmented application architecture that provides effective and secure
separation between components or tenants, with segmentation,
containerization, or cloud security groups.
★ Sending security directives to clients, e.g. Security Headers.
★ An automated process to verify the effectiveness of the configurations
and settings in all environments.
29. ★ XSS attacks consist of injecting malicious
client-side scripts into a website and using
the website as a propagation method.
★ it allows an attacker to inject content into a
website and modify how it is displayed,
forcing a victim’s browser to execute the code
provided by the attacker while loading the
page.
★ XSS is present in about two-thirds of all
applications.
Sponsored by
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
32. How to Prevent Xss
★ Using frameworks that automatically escape XSS by design, such as the
latest Ruby on Rails, React JS.
★ Escaping untrusted HTTP request data based on the context in the HTML
output (body, attribute, JavaScript, CSS, or URL) will resolve Reflected and
Stored XSS vulnerabilities. The OWASP Cheat Sheet for XSS Prevention
has details on the required data escaping techniques.
★ Applying context-sensitive encoding when modifying the browser
document on the client side acts against DOM XSS.
★ Enabling a content security policy (CSP) is a defense-in-depth mitigating
control against XSS.
34. ★ Every web developer needs to make
peace with the fact that
attackers/security researchers are going
to try to play with everything that
interacts with their application–from the
URLs to serialized objects.
★ The process of serialization is converting
objects to byte strings.
★ The process of deserialization is
converting byte strings to objects.

Insecure Deserialization
35. Example of Insecure Deserialization
Sponsored by
A PHP forum uses PHP object serialization to save a “super” cookie,
containing the user’s user ID, role, password hash, and other state:
a:4:{i:0;i:132;i:1;s:7:”Mallory”;i:2;s:4:”user”;
i:3;s:32:”b6a8b3bea87fe0e05022f8f3c88bc960″;}
An attacker changes the serialized object to give themselves admin
privileges:
a:4:{i:0;i:1;i:1;s:5:”Alice”;i:2;s:5:”admin”;
i:3;s:32:”b6a8b3bea87fe0e05022f8f3c88bc960″;}
36. How to Prevent Insecure Deserialization
★ The best way to protect your web application from this type of risk is not
to accept serialized objects from untrusted sources.
If you can’t do this then try the following;
○ Implementing integrity checks such as digital signatures on any serialized objects to
prevent hostile object creation or data tampering.
○ Enforcing strict type constraints during deserialization before object creation as the code
typically expects a definable set of classes.
○ Isolating and running code that deserializes in low privilege environments when
possible.
○ Logging deserialization exceptions and failures, such as where the incoming type is not
the expected type, or the deserialization throws exceptions.
○ Restricting or monitoring incoming and outgoing network connectivity from containers or
servers that deserialize.
○ Monitoring deserialization, alerting if a user deserializes constantly.
37.
38. ★ These days, even simple websites such as
personal blogs have a lot of dependencies.
We can all agree that failing to update
every piece of software on the backend
and frontend of a website will, without a
doubt, introduce heavy security risks
sooner rather than later.
★ In 2019, 56% of all CMS applications were
out of date at the point of infection.

Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities
39. Why aren’t we updating our software on time?
Sponsored by
★ Webmasters/developers cannot keep up with the pace of the
updates; after all, updating properly takes time.
★ Legacy code won’t work on newer versions of its dependencies.
★ Webmasters are scared that something will break on their
website.
★ Webmasters don’t have the expertise to properly apply the
update.
40. How to Avoid Using Components with Known Vulnerabilities
★ Remove all unnecessary dependencies.
★ Have an inventory of all your components on the client-side and
server-side.
★ Monitor sources like Common Vulnerabilities and Disclosures (CVE) and
National Vulnerability Database (NVD) for vulnerabilities in the
components.
★ Obtain components only from official sources.
★ Get rid of components not actively maintained.
★ Use virtual patching with the help of a Website Application Firewall.
42. ★ While 100% security is not a realistic goal,
there are ways to keep your website
monitored on a regular basis so you can
take immediate action when something
happens.
★ Not having an efficient logging and
monitoring process in place can increase
the damage of a website compromise.

Insufficient Logging and Monitoring
43. Examples of Insufficient Logging and Monitoring
Sponsored by
A major retailer reportedly had an internal malware analysis sandbox
analyzing attachments. The sandbox software had detected potentially
unwanted software, but no one responded to this detection. The sandbox
had been producing warnings for some time before detecting the breach
due to fraudulent card transactions by an external bank.
44. How to Prevent Insufficient Logging and Monitoring
★ Keeping audit logs are vital to staying on top of any suspicious change to
your website. An audit log is a document that records the events in a
website so you can spot anomalies and confirm with the person in charge
that the account hasn’t been compromised.
★ Whatever the reason for running out-of-date software on your web
application, you can’t leave it unprotected. Both TrueTesters and OWASP
recommend virtual patching for the cases where patching is not possible.
