I think you could still replay the old details, even if all you had to do was modify a "authorisationMethod=a" to "authorisationMethod=b". I don't know for sure though ... -- Michael On 3/29/06, Jeremy Bellwood <Jeremy.Bellwood@serengetilaw.com> wrote:
I think ING Direct has done a pretty good job at evaluating the security concerns making it difficult for keyloggers. The question used for "Step 2" changes each page refresh. They also have a dynamically generated 10-key pad used in "Step 3" where a user either types the letters instead of the numbers OR click on the numbers. Since both "Step 2" and "Step 3" are dynamically generated with each page refresh I think it makes it significantly more difficult get all the information needed to impersonate a valid user. -Jeremy ________________________________ From: michaelslists@gmail.com [mailto:michaelslists@gmail.com] Sent: Tue 3/28/2006 5:54 PM To: Mark Mcdonald Cc: James Strassburg; Sebastien Deleersnyder; Web Security; webappsec@securityfocus.com Subject: Re: [WEB SECURITY] SSL does not = a secure website I hate this thing with a passion.

For example, the app could have the user enter his/her password by clicking an onscreen keyboard or ask the user for random characters from their password (enter the 2nd, 4th and 10th character of your password). I should state that while I've read about these I don't know of a web application that makes use of them.

Well, now that I think about it, that is not entirely true... Websites could front-end their web apps with applications such as Sygate ( http://www.symantec.com/Products/enterprise?c=prodinfo&refId=1302 <http://www.symantec.com/Products/enterprise?c=prodinfo&refId=1302> ) which can check the user's computer for some forms of malware (including keyloggers) and then place the user into a Java virtual machine to help protect user credentials. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Web Security Mailing List http://www.webappsec.org/lists/websecurity/ The Web Security Mailing List Archives http://www.webappsec.org/lists/websecurity/archive/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This List Sponsored by: SpiDynamics ALERT: "How A Hacker Launches A Web Application Attack!"
