Catch hackers red handed using http modules(barmagy.com)

submitted by FadyFady(275) 4 years, 5 months ago

Here is a nice trick to help you to detect hackers in action while trying to hack your web applications. The idea is very simple, we want to set a layer there between your application and the internet to watch the web traffic for anything suspicious. These suspicious things might be a query string that contains a XSS script or a SQL injection query. So we will monitor the web traffic that is passing through that layer for well known and common patterns of attack methods that most hackers use to scan your web applications for vulnerabilities. We will use http modules to implement that layer, here is some dirty code to demonstrate the idea. read more...

Let’s talk pure ajax(barmagy.com)

submitted by FadyFady(275) 4 years, 9 months ago

Hello guys, today I’m going to talk about ajax but lets 1st explain this strange expression in this article title “pure ajax”, actually it’s an expression that I’ve came up with after very different incidents that convinced me to use this expression to differentiate between ajax and what people call ajax as a misconception. So the 1st question that would pop up what is ajax in the 1st place? Ofcourse lots of us I assume know that the acronym ajax stands for asynchronous java script and XML but lets explain this a little bit more further, XML here means that we would transmit data in the XML format but what about the asynchronous java script? Is it a new type of java script that came out after web 2.0 hype? Yes? Actually the answer is no, I’ve passed by several individuals that think that ajax came “after” the web 2.0 so called hype and they didn’t believe me when I told them no ajax programming techniques was already there covered with dust far before even the expression web 2.0 was invented and actually the expression asynchronous java script is all about an object called XMLHttpRequest that supports that a java script can send a GET or a POST request to a web server through the http protocol asynchronously or synchronously..... read more...
