SPI Dynamics (http://www.spidynamics.com) has a couple of commercial tools that 
allow both automated, and manual assessment of SOAP Applications. 


SOAP Editor (Part of the SPI Toolkit)
"SPI Dynamics' SOAP Editor is used to generate Simple Object Access Protocol 
(SOAP) requests automatically, and to manually edit SOAP requests and 
responses."
http://www.spidynamics.com/products/Comp_Audit/toolkit/soap.html


SPI Proxy (Part of the SPI Toolkit)
"SPI Dynamics' SPI Proxy is a stand-alone, self-contained proxy server that you 
can configure and run on your desktop. "
http://www.spidynamics.com/products/Comp_Audit/toolkit/proxy.html


Webinspect
"Enterprises with Web services implementations can automatically assess a Web 
service by discovering all XML input parameters and performing parameter 
manipulation on each XML field looking for vulnerabilities within the service 
itself."

Subject: SOAP inspection / tampering tools?


Hi,
 
Are there any open-source / commercial tools available for inspection /
modification of 
SOAP traffic to perform audits on its security?
I am thinking of a local proxy-like program through which SOAP traffic
is channeled 
by e.g. modifying localhost : redirect traffic destined for target.com
to 127.0.0.1
The tool would allow for changing the SOAP content both in the
request/reply.
I imagine that this only makes sense if the SOAP goes over HTTP, HTTPS
protects against sniffing.
 
I know there are commercial tools available to scan a SOAP server on
vulnerabilities, such as

*       ScanDo (Kavado)
*       AppScan (Sanctum, now WatchFire)

How good are these in finding problems with SOAP calls?
Are there open-source equivalents?
 
Thank you,
 
Kind regards,
 
Sebastien
