Web Server Misconfiguration: HTTP Basic Authentication

Java/JSP
Universal

Abstract

El uso del esquema de autenticación HTTP básico en un canal no seguro puede permitir que los atacantes roben las credenciales.

Explanation

El robo de credenciales puede resultar de:
1. Un esquema de codificación débil utilizado por la autenticación básica HTTP para codificar las credenciales de usuario. El texto codificado en Base64 se puede decodificar fácilmente para acceder a la información original.
2. En uso de la autenticación básica HTTP en un canal no seguro. Los atacantes pueden interceptar el tráfico y acceder a las credenciales de los usuarios.
