Two functions to attack Web Application Firewalls.


WAFNinja is a CLI tool written in Python. It shall help penetration testers to bypass a WAF by automating steps necessary for bypassing input validation. The tool was created with the objective to be easily extendible, simple to use and usable in a team environment. Many payloads and fuzzing strings, which are stored in a local database file come shipped with the tool. WAFNinja supports HTTP connections, GET and POST requests and the use of Cookies in order to access pages restricted to authenticated users. Also, an intercepting proxy can be set up. 

How to use :  

wafninja.py [-h] [-v] {fuzz,bypass,insert-fuzz,insert-bypass,set-db} ... 


Example Usage: fuzz: python wafninja.py fuzz -u "http://www.target.com/index.php?id=FUZZ" -c "phpsessid=value" -t xss -o output.html 

bypass: python wafninja.py bypass -u "http://www.target.com/index.php" -p "Name=PAYLOAD&Submit=Submit" -c "phpsessid=value" -t xss -o output.html

insert-fuzz: python wafninja.py insert-fuzz -i select -e select -t sql

positional arguments: {fuzz,bypass,insert-fuzz,insert-bypass,set-db} Which function do you want to use?   

Demo :  



fuzz                check which symbols and keywords are allowed by the WAF.
bypass              sends payloads from the database to the target.
insert-fuzz         add a fuzzing string
insert-bypass       add a payload to the bypass list
set-db              use another database file. Useful to share the same database with others. 



optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --version show program's version number and exit

Who is responsible for your cloud application breach?

Cloud application security has been a big concern of lately due to several data breaches occurring in the cloud services such as the icloud hack, Target, Home Depot, United States internal Revenue system. Therefore the security of application poses a question as where does the responsibility of the application security lie?
Is it with the vendor or the company or person availing the services? The answer goes both sides, as the security aspect of the server side is only covered by the vendor of the cloud application services the client side still needs the security which is mostly overlooked by the people or the companies.
The client side application security is of utmost importance as only the server side security is not enough to protect the application from security breaches.
The different kind of security threats which pose a great danger to the cloud application security are as follows:

Data breaches

  • Account Hijacking
  • Compromised credentials
  • Permanent Data loss
  • Shared Technologies
  • Cloud service abuse
  • Hacked Interface and API

 

Data Breaches

This is one of the biggest threat to the cloud services because of the vast amount of data stored on the cloud servers. The sensitivity of the data can be imagined easily, as the cloud is storing the financial details as well as personal details of millions of people. And if this vast amount of data is breached in any case it will cause a downfall of the company and also a threat to the lives of people who have been exposed due to the breach.

 

Account Hijacking

This attack has been there for a quite long time, it includes Fraud, Phishing, Software Exploits etc. Using these kind of attacks, the cloud services can be compromised and can lead to launching of other attacks, changing the settings of account, manipulate transactions, uploading malwares and illegal contents.

 

Compromised Credentials

The credentials are compromised generally due to weak passwords, casual authentication, poor key or certificate management. Also the identity access management becomes a problem as the user access are sometimes not changed with the job role and responsibilities or when the user leaves the organization.
Embedding credentials and cryptographic keys in source code and leaving them in the online repositories such as GitHub also makes a big vulnerability which can be exploited easily. Aligning the identity with the cloud provider needs an understanding of the security measures taken in account.

 

Permanent Data Loss

Malicious hackers have gained access to the cloud services and deleted data permanently in the past affecting the business. Also the cloud data centers are vulnerable to natural disasters which can swipe away the data which has been stored on the cloud.
If the user encrypts the data before uploading to the cloud and loses the key then data is lost. Thus the client side protection of data should be managed and well kept. Permanent data loss can lead to financial crisis and disruption of the working system.

 

Shared Technologies

As the cloud service providers share infrastructure, platforms and applications from different sources therefore any reconfiguration or vulnerability in these layers affects the users and can also lead to compromise of the users system as well as the cloud depending upon the potential of the vulnerability.
Thus the security alone at the cloud server side is not only the real issue, Security has to be maintained at a vast level consisting of all the aspects of the cloud environment. The client side also needs to be secured as the attacks also possible from the client side due to low or no security measures.

 

Cloud Service Abuse

Cloud applications are breached to gain access to the commanding position in the cloud where the resources can be used for different malicious purposes such as launching a DDOS attacks or sending bulk spams and phishing emails, breaking an encryption key or hosting Malicious content.
This abuse may lead to unavailability of the services or can also lead to loss of data of the users stored on the cloud, therefore it is very much necessary to secure the applications from abuse.

 

Hacked Interface and API

To build an application now the developers are using ready to use interfaces and API to make their work simple, but these API’s and Interfaces tend to be the most exposed part of the system as they are available freely on the internet.
Almost every cloud service and application now offer API, IT reams are using these interfaces to interact with the cloud services such as management, provisioning, monitoring etc. Thus the level of threat to the cloud services increases manifold. This requires rigorous code reviews and penetrating testing to secure the application and services.

 

Conclusion

As we see that there are a lot of possibilities of breaching your data stored in the cloud due to the importance of data. Therefore your data cannot be secured alone just by the cloud service provider, there is a shear work required from the client side to protect the application and data from the outer security threats. Therefore security audits should be done in order to secure your precious data from threats.

Why Hackers Can Target your Website?

Today website hacking does not limited to any one aspect or motive, there are different purpose for which websites are hacked now on a daily basis.
Defacement of website is generally what is considered as website hacking but it is not all, there is a lot more to it and is more than other things. Talking about website hacking we have classified the most sought reasons, 

which are as follows:
  • Lack of Awareness
  • Economic Gains
  • System resources
  • Revenge Hacking or Competition
  • Showing off skills
  • Script Kiddies
Capture

Lack of Awareness

This is one of the major cause of low security of the websites. People work on the outdated technologies and software, and also do not apply the vendor patches. They do not have any security measures installed to protect their websites against the attacks. This happens due to overconfidence or no knowledge about the security.
There are new ways and new vulnerabilities revealed every day which may or may not concern you but it may harm the website in some aspects, thus proper security and care of the website is very important. Once the user lose confidence due to website failure they will move to alternatives which will be a loss to the company. So to avoid this proper security measures are very important.

Economic Gains

As the name suggests this type of hacking is for Monitory Benefits. The attack of this kind are known as Drive by downloads and Blackhat SEO campaigns. Drive by Download means injecting some malicious code into the website and then affecting all the users of that website, by downloading the malicious files to their systems while Blackhat SEO refers to redirecting users to different websites which may have not been intent of the users. In this way, there will be a sense of dismal among the users giving a bad impression of the website and ultimately affecting the number of visits.
Example: Downloading a malware on user system and getting all credentials such as usernames and passwords of all the websites visited, including financial details.

System Resources

This is also a major cause for hacking of websites, the hackers use the resources such as bandwidth and physical server resources for their illegal purposes. The hackers compromise the website using the Bots and the Malicious Scripts which give them access to the server and they can use the resources as an administrator.
The bots can be used in different kind of distributed web attacks like Dos attacks, Brute force attacks or other automated attacks against other websites. Due to these illegal activities from your website your host may shut you down causing a lot of trouble for you and your users.
Example: Hacking to store illegal pirated software copies and pornographic contents. Also indulging in DOS attacks and DDOS

Revenge Hacking or Competition

Due to High competition in today’s world for providing services, there is a greater probability of your website getting hacked for the benefit of other websites.
Also the losses suffered by others due to your good services may come as a revenge threat. There may be some group of people who would like to bring down your website to bring a bad name and a situation of distrust among the users.
Example: Company A & B are into same business, A gets Hacked so the customers of A will be going to B for services thus eliminating A as a competition.

Show Off

Several Hackers just hack the websites for fun and showing off theirs skills to the hacker community to get name and fame. This kind of hacking is done without any purpose it just exploits the security vulnerabilities present in your website. There are a lot of hackers of this kind who continuously look out for vulnerable websites and hack them thus affecting the website and its services for quite some time.
Example: Posting the defaced website links and screen shots on public domain with the coded name and claiming to have hacked it.

Script Kiddies

Script Kiddies are the people who do not have the working knowledge of the computer and networks, they are people who are trying to hack a website using the scripts written by other hackers without understanding the process of hacking.
Script Kiddies do these things to make themselves famous among their peers to get recognition as a hacker or to attract attention of someone. There is no other motive than this, and any website having vulnerability can be exploited by the script kiddies, which will hinder the services of the website and will upset the users.

Conclusion

As your website holds your presence online therefore it is important to secure it. Also it gives your some revenue from the advertisements if it holds any. People are less aware of the website security threats in compare to web applications which leads them to be an easy bait for the hackers to bring down their website.
People will lose their trust on your services if your website is hacked, therefore proper security methods are required to secure your website from the threats, which can be implemented after a security audit by a professional or security company.
We are offering such website security services at a very decent price of $99, if you need any kind of security services do contact us at contact@briskinfosec.com
