Reino: Input Validation and Representation
Los problemas de validación y representación de entradas están causados por metacaracteres, codificaciones alternativas y representaciones numéricas. Los problemas de seguridad surgen de entradas en las que se confía. Estos problemas incluyen: «desbordamientos de búfer», ataques de «scripts de sitios», "SQL injection" y muchas otras acciones.
Denial of Service: StringBuilder
Abstract
Si se anexan datos que no son de confianza a la instancia de
StringBuilder
o StringBuffer
inicializada con el tamaño de matriz de respaldo predeterminado, JVM podría consumir espacio de la memoria en montón de forma excesiva.Explanation
Si se anexan datos controlados por el usuario a una instancia de
Ejemplo 1: se anexan datos controlados por el usuario a una instancia de
StringBuilder
o StringBuffer
inicializada con el tamaño de matriz de caracteres de respaldo predeterminado (16), la aplicación podría consumir una gran cantidad de memoria en montón mientras se cambia el tamaño de la matriz subyacente para acomodar los datos del usuario. Cuando se anexan datos a una instancia StringBuilder
o StringBuffer
, la instancia determinará si la matriz de caracteres de respaldo posee suficiente espacio libre para almacenar los datos. Si los datos no se pueden acomodar, la instancia StringBuilder
o StringBuffer
creará una nueva matriz con una capacidad como mínimo dos veces mayor que la anterior, conservándose la matriz antigua en el montón hasta que se recolecte. Los atacantes pueden aprovechar este detalle de implementación para ejecutar un ataque de Denial of Service (DoS).Ejemplo 1: se anexan datos controlados por el usuario a una instancia de
StringBuilder
inicializada con el constructor predeterminado.
...
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
final String lineSeparator = System.lineSeparator();
String[] labels = request.getParameterValues("label");
for (String label : labels) {
sb.append(label).append(lineSeparator);
}
