Hola Brian,
My mates and I released a proxy at BH Amsterdam that did all this for you automatically. 256 bit AES, stored flags for various bits in the HTTP resp, removed and stored things like cookies for you (which is how it worked transparently), and could be 1) URL param, 2) URI resource, 3) replace URI (most secure...and fun, 4) legacy URL/param support.Would you be willing to summarize what kind of attacks your proxy can prevent, and what kind it cannot? Or perhaps point us to a more detailed description of what it does?
Please see the trailing paragraph of the original post. We have kind of gone back to the drawing board after the baffling response at Black Hat Amsterdam/06 for what we/I was sure would be a big hit. Obviously I am missing something either technically or simply communication abilities; either way, until we figure out what it is that went wrong our project is shelved. I would promise a paper on this but I am about four papers behind at the moment, two of which are still papervapour. I am wondering if some of the "problems" we "solved" are still problems people don't take seriously, so we may have jumped the a prior gun. Backing up, we are going to release papers focused on the attacks and tools to facilitate them, since many commercial tools still can't detect or block basic script injection with moderate encoding applied. -ae ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: Watchfire Methodologies & Tools for Web Application Security Assessment With the rapid rise in the number and types of security threats, web application security assessments should be considered a crucial phase in the development of any web application.
