I agree with your comments, especially on the part that scanners can hardly find design flaw. I remember I encountered one case in which the session id is sequential; the scanner did not even pick up such an obvious flaw. In another case, after user login, the user id is embdeded as hidden value and used to authenticate the user. And the scanner failed to pick this up again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
