Hacking web applications – case studies of award-winning bugs in Google, Yahoo, Mozilla and more
Course Description
Have you ever thought of hacking web applications for fun and profit? How about playing with authentic, award-winning security bugs identified in some of the greatest companies? If that sounds interesting, join this unique hands-on training!
I will discuss security bugs that I have found together with Michał Bentkowski in a number of bug bounty programs (including Google, Yahoo, Mozilla, Twitter and others). You will learn how bug hunters think and how to hunt for security bugs effectively.
To be successful in bug hunting, you need to go beyond automated scanners. If you are not afraid of going into detail and doing manual/semi-automated analysis, then this hands-on training is for you.
After completing this training, you will have learned about:
- tools/techniques for effective hacking of web applications
- non-standard XSS, SQLi, CSRF
- RCE via serialization/deserialization
- bypassing password verification
- remote cookie tampering
- tricky user impersonation
- serious information leaks
- browser/environment dependent attacks
- XXE attack
- insecure cookie processing
- session related vulnerabilities
- mixed content vulnerability
- SSL strip attack
- path traversal
- response splitting
- bypassing authorization
- file upload vulnerabilities
- caching problems
- clickjacking attacks
- logical flaws
- and more…
This hands-on training was attended by security specialists from Oracle, Adobe, ESET, ING, Red Hat, Trend Micro, Philips, government sector and it was very well-received. Recommendations can be found here
