Web Security Project Creating an anonymous proxy server to monitor and Analyze new web based attacks Mentors: Amichai Shulman Eldad Chai Students: Nadav Amit Dani Daniel
Project Goals & Objectives Main Goals – 1. Being able to log real malicious web based attacks. 2. Identify new malicious web attacks. 3. Determine which attacks are in common use in order to be able to focus on defending against them. Main Objectives – 1. Creating a working stable anonymous proxy server that can log real web based attacks – Web hackers usually use anonymous servers to avoid getting detected. 2. Creating a tool that can analyze the logs in order to detect patterns of web based attacks and create statistics of common used attacks.
Project Architecture Computer A Proxy Server On VMWare Honey Pot Machine Web Server Hacker Data Search & Index Tool Computer B
Architecture Components 1. Proxy Server • Unix based machine • Installed on a VMWare machine (easy to reconstruct if attacked) • Based on a “Privoxy” server, writes all connections logs to local files. • The server also runs an FTP server to allow easy extraction of data. • GeoIP API is used to analyze the source IP of attackers • Encoding of low ascii characters is preformed to help attack analyzing (like EOF etc.). • Cron job for archiving the logs 2. Backup Agent • Cobian Backup • Unzip script 3. Splunk • Data indexing and search tool • Enables logging of known attacks • Enables query and analysis of accesses • Fields and tags were created in order to allow easy data extraction.
Samples Of Identified Malicious Web Attacks
Yahoo Brute Force Attack Attack Purpose – retrieve Yahoo login credentials. Attack Scenario- Around the world there are many Yahoo severs (to allow share loading, backup etc..), The communication Between these servers is done through a web API. Hackers use this interface To impersonate servers and Retrieve users credentials!
Yahoo Brute Force Attack How Is It Done? If you just try to login to yahoo too many times you will be requested to decode a “Captcha”, But if you just use the following API – “/config/isp_verify_user?l=<SomeUsername>&p=<SomePassword>” Against a yahoo server you can verify that a certain username exists, and than brute force to verify Which password grants access to the account. For Example - http://124.108.120.50/config/isp_verify_user?l=israel&p=israeli Attack Method – using anonymous proxies to try logging in with multiple use names and passwords on Yahoo servers. Since there are many Yahoo servers around the world which are not synchronized, it is possible to try many of them. In addition, once you add Proxy servers into the equation (by multiplying) - you get even more
Yahoo Brute Force Attack Many tools to do so using with and without proxies:
