Hi all,
I have tried a lot to find any Proof of Concept Tool on Web Application
Security but still I am not able to find a single one. Let me give some
specific details.
Session ID
Generally session ID is big enough and act as authentication token. Most of
the time it only changes last few digits, lets say only three digits from
the end. Even its doing this only its very tuff to guess these last three
digits. I have made a testing site and tried but was not able to do that. I
knew session ID is not the only authentication parameter. It can contain
cookie, session tokens etc as well. I have tried Achilles, Web Sleuth, Web
Inspect, Spike Proxy etc. I think at least they don't do such brute force.
Is there any tool which does brute force on this and give session ID.
Cookie Manipulation
Several Articles talk about Cookie Manipulation. How to get cookies of
others even in a LAN seems very tuff or not possible as per my study on Web.
If a Attacker is able to redirect other person's traffic to any Proxy like
Achilles, Web Sleuth than he can perform attacks. Now nobody is allowing to
change his proxy setting and sending his output through Attacker (Proxy).
Is there any tool which can give access/manipulate the cookie remotely?
This manipulation can also be achieved if an Attacker can put his Proxy (Web
Sleuth) on intermediate Router/Proxy. One Example is I am accessing Hotmail
and on my ISP Router/Proxy, An attacker installs tool like Web Sleuth. But
again question comes Router works on OSI layer 3 so attacker can't put tool
like Web Sleuth. If intermediate hop is Proxy which is on Application level,
there should be some tool which can be placed here.
XSS
Cross Site Scripting has to use Client site scripting only. What could be
the maximum impact of this? Can Attacker format a machine or steal data by
this? If yes how?
Please also tell any other Proof of Concept Tool on Web Application
Security. I read OWASP guides, WebGoat and some more to understand three
things deeply and develop Proof of Concept Tool but no successes accept
Hidden field manipulation. Please recommend some good guides on this.
Any help on this would be highly appreciated.
Thanking You.
Sincerely,
Indian Tiger, CISSP
