• Use prepared statements

• Or stored procedures

• Check for wildcards

Broken Authentication

• Don‘t limit password strength

• Force long and complex passwords

• Check error messages

• Prevent brute-force-attacks

session.hash_function = sha512

Broken Session Management

• Don‘t expose session ids

• Probably bind sessions to IP

• Reduce Session-Lifetime

• Regenerate Session-Ids

XSS

• Escape output by context

– htmlspecialchars

– json_encode

– …

Security Misconfiguration

• Keep your system up-to-date

• Remove setup/deployment routines

• Disable exposure of sensitive data

• Review server settings

• github.com/ioerror/duraconf

Fucking rainbow tableshttp://edwardhotspur.wordpress.com/tag/devil-bunny/

PHP 5.5

password_hash($password);

if (password_verify($password, $hash)) {

// Success!} else {

// Failed :(}

SSDE - Password encryption

• Add a salt

• Use different salts

• Use a strong algorithm (NOT md5)

• Use password_hash in PHP 5.5

• github.com/ircmaxell/password_compat

SSDE - PHP Exposureexpose_php Off

Remove

phpinfo();

SSDE - Secure URLs

• Use TLS for all pages

• Use Secure Cookie Flag

• Keep sensitive data out of the URL

class AdminController {

public function editAction() {

$this->model

->save($this->formData);

}

}

Missing Function Level AC

class AdminController {

public function editAction() {

if (!$this->_isAllowed()) {

throw new Exception(

'insufficient privileges'

);

}

…

Missing Function Level AC

• Standard should disallow all access

• Use roles to keep ACL simple

• ACL model should be very flexible

• Check privileges on each step

public function transferAction() {

if ($this->_isAllowed()) {

$this->transfer(

$amount,

Known Vulnerabilities

• Review third party libraries

• Keep libraries up-to-date -
