RE: Mock Penentration Test Site

The buggy bank is fun to play with.

The 10 or so bugs within the buggy bank are not as deep as one would think.
You have to remember that this is a perl script emulating everything. There
is one place you can perform an SQL injection attack, there is one XSS,
there is a cookie injection, bad memory management, account harvesting,
password harvesting to name a few.

It is always fun to see people sit in front of it and you tell them to find
what is wrong with it. Web application testing always looks easy on slides
but it is very different when you face the real thing.

It is not a bad tool at all. In order to get it going fast on my classroom
computer I would simply install apache from a setup file and then they would
run a batch file that would set everything up for them as far as the
httpd.conf and a few other things are concerned.

Contact me directly if you wish to have more details, I might still have my
documentation and files that I used in class when I was teaching this stuff.

Take care

Clement
