Reino: Encapsulation
La encapsulación consiste en crear límites fuertes. En un explorador web esto puede suponer la seguridad de que tu codificación móvil no se vea comprometido por otro código móvil. En el servidor puede significar la diferenciación entre los datos validados y los que no lo están, entre los datos de un usuario y los de otro, o entre los diferentes usuarios, los datos que pueden ver y los que no.
System Information Leak: Incomplete Servlet Error Handling
Abstract
Si un servlet no puede filtrar todas las excepciones, podría revelar información de depuración que ayudaría a un adversario a elaborar un plan de ataque.
Explanation
Cuando un servlet lanza una excepción, la respuesta de error predeterminada que envía el contenedor de servlet al usuario incluye normalmente información de depuración. Esta información es de gran valor para un atacante. Por ejemplo, un seguimiento de pila puede mostrar al atacante una cadena de solicitud SQL con estructura incorrecta, el tipo de base de datos que se utiliza y la versión del contenedor de aplicaciones. Esta información permite al atacante centrarse en vulnerabilidades conocidas en estos componentes.
Ejemplo 1: en el método siguiente un error de búsqueda DNS provocará que el servlet lance una excepción.
Ejemplo 1: en el método siguiente un error de búsqueda DNS provocará que el servlet lance una excepción.
Ejemplo 2: el método siguiente lanzará una
protected void doPost (HttpServletRequest req,
HttpServletResponse res)
throws IOException {
String ip = req.getRemoteAddr();
InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getByName(ip);
...
out.println("hello " + addr.getHostName());
}
NullPointerException
si el parámetro "nombre" no forma parte de la solicitud.
protected void doPost (HttpServletRequest req,
HttpServletResponse res)
throws IOException {
String name = getParameter("name");
...
out.println("hello " + name.trim());
}
