Kingdom: Environment

This section includes everything that is outside of the source code but is still critical to the security of the product that is being created. Because the issues covered by this kingdom are not directly related to source code, we separated it from the rest of the kingdoms.

Web Server Misconfiguration: Service Enumeration

Universal

Abstract

Allowing public access to a web services description document could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to critical server data.

Explanation

WSDL's contain information about the web services that the server offers. An unintended exposure of this information can cause unauthorized access to server methods. An attacker can bypass the client application and directly call web methods.
