Thank you.

In all honesty I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Test the site in a good variety of browsers that your users might be using (especially old browsers that might not work well with unicode).
You're using valid markup, so in my book, you win  If old browsers don't work then they lose (but it still may be worth fixing if your user base requires it)

I've just been looking at this as a way of reducing load from resources such as JS and images on some sites. It looks like a quick and easy way of offloading static content to a distribution network, which has to be a good thing.
What worries me about it, is there doesn't seem to be (or at least, I can't find) much discussion about the security implications of including HTML and client script code from unknown third party servers.
Is there some kind of security model or checksum system to prevent rogue proxy operators from injecting arbitrary code which could harm site users? Eeek...
|
|
|
|
|
Can't you select a CDN that you know and trust?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, if you want to pay for it One of the benefits of Coral is that it appears to be free. It's also apparently distributed, and it seems that the organisers don't necessarily have control over the behaviour of the individual proxies, and a user (end user or web host) can't specify which to use.
Now obviously free is no good if it means abandoning pretty much all security and control over your website, and handing it over to unknown third parties, which is why I'm trying to figure out if this has been considered and mitigated (via some kind of central control / checksums etc).
With my current understanding, an end user gets content from CDN nodes which are closer to them where possible - which would make it even harder to track down if a rogue node had done something bad to some of your users - you wouldn't know which one, and as a site operator, you probably wouldn't see any evidence that it had happened.
If a node started scanning content for keywords, then serving up competitors or inappropriate sites or content that would be bad. If the node started injecting bad client script for attacks on users that would be terrible - and hard to detect.
Now presumably this is either somehow mitigated, or an accepted risk of such an open and free system - what worries me is that I haven't seen much discussion about it - are people unknowingly at risk, or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

Ah if you're talking free...
This is what the Coral Wiki has to say about it:
Ultimately, we certainly want and hope that many third parties run Coral nodes, so that Coral can grow into a world-wide network of thousands of computers. For now, although the source is available via anonymous CVS, we'd prefer to run a network of several hundred machines on PlanetLab that are under our control, to enable easier maintenance, debugging, and pushing our regular changes, bug-fixes, and new functionality. However, feel free to use Coral regularly! In fact, we welcome your help and feedback as users.
Furthermore, there are more serious security issues we will have to handle once Coral is run on untrusted clients (one can think of the current deployment as "trusted", similar to commercial CDNs.) Until better security protections are in place, we want to retain control over Coral nodes.

Ahh Well sppotted - thanks. From reading the other sections, it seemed that it was already running on untrusted clients.
From the tone of that, it seems that they are at least going to consider the security aspects before doing that.

i got sql injection attach on my website plz help me how can i prevent this

Use parameterised queries or preferably stored procedures for all database access. Properly written this should prevent sql injections.

on login boxes it would be safer to user the following way to secure parameters
========================
SQLConnection conn = new SQLConnection("connstring");
SQLCommand comm = conn.CreateCommand();
comm.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Admins WHERE (uname = @uname) AND (password = @passw);";
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@uname",TextBox1.Text);
comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@passw",TextBox1.Text);
conn.Open();
SQLDataReader reader = comm.ExecuteReader();
if(reader.Read())
{
//loggedIn
}else{
//invalid
}
========================
What uyou can also do is convert your text input to lowercase check your text input for SQL expressions such as " * , select, delete, update.
string s = "Input string got from box";
if(s.Contains("select") || s.Contains("*")){
//Possible injection attack
}

Well if you validated input strings coming from text boxes, there wont be a problem, what you can also do is turn debug off, and make sure that remote debugging is also turned off in your web.config server becuase sql injection is usually not possible without knowledge of the database table names and structure. The oke probably where typing in random query text in these boxes to cause this error like " asas); Delete FROM abc; Select * from abc where(uname = " to expose error messages from the server. becuase that would expose the details of the queried table?
What is the specific case where they broke in ? was it on a login, or when adding comments ?
Also assuming you are working from .net, I recommend that you use the built in login validation and role management that comes with visual studio (.Net 2 and up). It implements the best standards and practises for securing login.

It's going to be hard to fix your problems without seeing your source code.
Also, site security is a complex topic, and it's difficult to cover everything necessary on a forum. If you're working on anything that's security critical, and you don't know how to make it basically secure, the best solution would be to hire someone who does (and maybe get them to teach you about what they're doing)
(no offence intended - it's a serious point)
|
|
|
|
|
Oh, and I should just mention - whatever you do - don't post a link to your site after telling the world that it's insecure - it's not likely to help your situation in the short term.

Good suggestions from the other two replies. Just to expand on the points a bit -
Essentially it comes down to not trusting any input from your users. Any time you're using any user supplied data, you have to make absolutely sure that you don't allow it to be treated it as executable code, or else you are allowing untrusted users to modify the intended behaviour of your application.
This includes when you use user data as part of an SQL query string.
(language dependent, treat this as pseudocode)
For example if you are using an SQL query like
SELECT * FROM Users WHERE UserName='$UserName' AND Password='$Password'
You need to ensure that the $UserName and $Password inputs can not contain any SQL code (or client/server code, but that's another story)
If the $UserName field contains something like "Alan';DELETE FROM Users;INSERT INTO USERS (UserName, Password) VALUES ('Hacker', 'MyEasyPassword');"
Then the rogue user would have been able to delete all your users, and insert a new user with the details he wants. This is far from a worst case scenario, which could potentially include having all your sensitive data stolen, existing data modified in ways that you won't notice, and a system put in place to do further malicious activities - all without you even knowing.
There are several approaches to fix this - mostly previously suggested.
1) Thoroughly validate all your input data. Use a whitelist where possible to specify valid input types, and trim out any code that is in the SQL. This includes server script, SQL, and client script code. This approach can be difficult to get right if you use it on its own.
2) As suggested, use parameterised queries.These are safer, as the DB server should not parse the parameter values for code to execute, however you should still be validating your code (or else you're going to be back here asking about cross site scripting attacks, junk data etc)
3) Use stored procedures. These are different to, but have some of the benefits of parametrised queries, though a lot of crap is talked about them... You still need to validate the data.
Hope that helps.

Hi all.
Is is possible to avoid viewing source code of a web page.
i can disable mouse right click... and i want to restrict from menu options also..
is it possible.
Thank you.

No, no, and no.
If you do disable the right-mouse all you succeed in doing is annoying people, and not restricting anything.

Bad idea, since if someone really wants your sourcecode they can just click on file and save as, "wholla instant source", or they can go to their web page cache ect. if it javascript you wish to secure from other developers viewing it you can always use a util that takes out indentation making it harder to read, but then again you can just open Notpad 2 and indent it automatically

No.
There's also very little reason to do it. Writing HTML / CSS markup isn't exactly rocket science, and if someone wants to copy the design of your site, they hardly need the source code to do it. Pretty much anything that's sent out from your webserver must be considered publically accessible.
If you're trying to hide the source for application security / authentication reasons then you have more serious problems. Don't do this under any circumstances. Please.

If you want to do what stevio said, in terms of user authentication.. or if you can, just use a server-side scripting language such as PHP, CGI or ASP.

No not entirely possible. You can disable right clicking of the mouse but that'll just annoy people.

www.ikvm.net [^]
Im trying to implement some features from a Java application on my employer's SharePoint site. I used IKVMC to compile the Java JAR file to a strongly named .DLL file. Before starting on the web part in VS2005, I wanted to make sure it would work. So I created a basic WinForm app and added the DLL as a referenced assembly (also added two DLLs that came with IKVM) in the application folder. Everything works.
So -- I moved on to creating the web part. I fired up my Virtual Machine (using V2005, VSeWSS 1.1 and W2K3 Server). I added the DLL and put in the same code and I get the following:
[IllegalArgumentException: interface com.iwi.teenserver.dao.hessian.cust.CustomerDataAccess is not visible from class loader]<br />
java.lang.reflect.Proxy.getProxyClass(ClassLoader loader, Class[] interfaces) +3149<br />
