Preface. Dedication. Chapter Summaries. I. INTRODUCTION.
1. A Fault Model for Software Security Testing. Why Security Testing is Different.
A Fault Model for Security Vulnerabilities.
Security Concerns and the
How to Break Software Fault Model. Creating an Attack Plan.
A Note on Format.
II. CREATING UNANTICIPATED USER INPUT SCENARIOS.
2. Attacking Software Dependencies. First Attack: Block access to libraries.
Second Attack: Manipulate the application's registry values.
Third Attack: Force the application to use corrupt files.
Fourth Attack: Manipulate and replace files that the application creates, reads from, writes to or executes.
Fifth Attack: Force the application to operate in low memory, disk space and network availability conditions.
Summary: A Checklist for Battle.
3. Breaking Security through the User Interface. First Attack: Overflow input buffers.
Second Attack: Examine all common switches and options.
Third Attack: Explore escape characters, character sets and commands.
Summary: A Checklist for Battle.
III. DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION ATTACKS.
4. Attacking Design. First Attack: Try common default and test account names and passwords.
Second Attack: Use
Holodeck to expose unprotected test APIs.
Third Attack: Connect to all ports.
Fourth Attack: Fake the source of data.
Fifth Attack: Create loop conditions in any application that interprets script, code or other user supplied logic.
Sixth Attack: Use alternate routes to accomplish the same task.
Seventh Attack: Force the system to reset values.
Summary: A Checklist for Battle.
5. Attacking Implementation. First Attack: Get between time of check and time of use.
Second Attack: Create files with the same name as files protected with a higher classification.
Third Attack: Force all error messages.
Fourth Attack: Use
Holodeck to look for temporary files and screen their contents for sensitive information.
Summary: A Checklist for Battle.
