Peach @ PH-Neutral 0×7d8

The Enforcer

The past ph-neutral security conferences in IMG_0242Berlin I have attended were all very fun, laid back, and informative.  The European security “underground” scene is highly refreshing after so many high cost US conferences.  Additionally the people are excellent and provide for good conversations.  This years ph-neutral was no exception and was held at an Island club, providing more space for this ever growing conference.  This year was packed as usual with a record high of 450 pre-registrations.

.NET "Unsafe" Security Issues — Part 1

May 22nd, 2008 | Category: Security

The Microsoft .NET Framework provides the developer with a number of advanced features such as P/Invoke and unsafe code blocks.  This article will take a look at unsafe code blocks and some of the security issues that should be looked for when reviewing or writing such code.

The Spider Woman movie

First off, what is the unsafe keyword and how can it be used?  Glad you asked, unsafe allows for the use of pointers in .NET code.  This includes pointers to managed objects such as arrays and strings.  To use the unsafe keyword the assembly or executable must be compiled with a special flag allowing for unsafe code blocks.  The resulting assembly/executable will not be verifiable by the CLR.

Modification of Immutable Types

With power comes the temptation to modify immutable types such as strings.  Resist this urge as the CLR does a number of internal optimizations for known immutable types like strings.  Modification of these immutable types can and will cause instability in the CLR, and have interesting ramifications.  For example, some versions of the CLR keep only a single copy of strings.  So if I created three strings, all with the value "Hello World", I would really only have three references to the same string.  This is okay since the string object is immutable.  However, if I take a pointer to the string and change its contents I will end up changing the contents of all three strings!!

Managed Pointers and Pinning

The .NET memory manager can move values and object instances around in memory as needed.  So, if we are going to get a pointer to such a memory region we need to tell the memory manager not to move that memory on us.  Enter object pinning.  Pinning tells the CLR not to move something until it is unpinned.  A typical bug in unsafe code is when a managed pointer is held on to and used after it’s reference has been unpinned.  This is a hard bug to detect as the program may run fine most of time and the crashes that occur may not be obviously linked to the unsafe code.

In the C# managed language, pinning typically occurs using the "fixed" block.  This makes it easier to spot issues.  I recommend avoiding other methods of pinning variables as they can be harder to review.

Buffer Overflows and other Pointer Issues

With the unsafe keyword and pointer math come all the standard security issues those C/C++ developers need to worry about.  There is a real possibility of causing buffer overflows that result in exploitable conditions in .NET applications.  Buffer manipulation should be reviewed just like C/C++ for possible overflows.

Preventing XSS with Correct Output Encoding

May 19th, 2008 | Category: Security

Encoding output to prevent cross site scripting (XSS) is old news to most in the web security community, but it’s still an area that is done incorrectly, or with out thought to future issues that might arise.  Additionally, with the explosion of AJAX based applications there is a lack of encoding tools that target JavaScript or provide an implementation for JavaScript.

??????? ? ??????????? ?????????

Standard framework utilities for encoding output (Server.HtmlEncode, etc) only encode the most basic set of characters needed, &, <, >, and ".  In a perfect world this would be enough, but in the day and age of browser bugs, broken Unicode libraries, and lenient HTML interpretation that can lead to occasional sloppy coding more is needed to protect our applications.  Enter the Reform encoding library.

Of specific mention is correct context aware output encoding.  The context could be "html body", "html attribute", "css", "javascript", etc.  It’s important to understand how your data will get treated to know how it needs to be encoded.  It’s because of context issues that one must encode on output of data instead of input.  Unfortunately there are no shortcuts :)

The Refrom encoding library, also known as the OWASP Encoding Project, provides conservative functions for performing different types of encoding’s that are needed in today’s web applications in a large variety of languages.  Currently there is support for: Java, C, Python, Perl, PHP, Ruby, JavaScript, ASP.NET, and Classic ASP.  All of the Reform functions are internationalization safe, are easy to use, and prevent all known types of XSS issues when used correctly.

What is encoded?

  • Everything but: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, space [ ], comma [,], and period [.]
  • Unicode is always encoded

  • HtmlEncode — Encode data for display in a block of HTML or HTML attribute.
  • JsEncode — Encode data into a JavaScript literal
  • VbsEncode — Encode data into a VBScript string literal

Microsoft’s AntiXss Library

An alternative to Reform is the Microsoft AntiXss Library.  Both libraries are functionally equivalent and in fact were designed by the same people.
