2. OWASP About Me  MANDIANT  Commercial Services  Federal Services  Training and Education  Product – Mandiant Intelligent Response  My Experience  10+ years total experience in Information Security  Penetration Testing, Application Security, Source Code Analysis, Forensics, Incident Response, R&D  Member of OWASP DC Chapter (and CapSec)

3. OWASP Problem  I was looking for web applications with vulnerabilities where I could:  Test web application scanners  Test manual techniques  Test source code analysis tools  Look at the code that implements the vulnerabilities  Modify code to fix vulnerabilities  Test web application firewalls 3

4. OWASP Option – WebGoat  It is a great learning tool, but  It is a training environment, not a real application  Same holds for other “artificial” applications 4

5. OWASP Option – Proprietary “Free” Apps  Realistic applications with vulnerabilities  Often closed source, which prevents some uses  Can conflict with one another  Can be difficult to install  Licensing restrictions 5

6. OWASP Solution  Create a set of broken, open source applications  Put them all on a VMWare Virtual Machine  Donate it to OWASP  Profit? 6

7. OWASP Base Software  Based on Ubuntu Linux Server 9.10  No X-Windows  Apache  PHP  Perl  MySQL  PostgreSQL  Tomcat  OpenJDK  Mono 7

8. OWASP Management Software  OpenSSH  Samba  phpMyAdmin  Subversion Client 8

9. OWASP Intentionally Broken Apps  OWASP WebGoat version 5.3 (Java)  OWASP Vicnum version 1.3 (Perl)  Mutillidae version 1.3 (PHP)  Damn Vulnerable Web Application version 1.06 (PHP) 9

10. OWASP Intentionally Broken Apps  OWASP CSRFGuard Test Application version 2.2 (Java)  Mandiant Struts Forms (Java/Struts)  Simple ASP.NET Forms (ASP.NET/C#)  Simple Form with DOM Cross Site Scripting (HTML/JavaScript)  LOOKING FOR DONATIONS! 10

11. OWASP Old Versions of Real Applications  phpBB 2.0.0 (PHP, released April 4, 2002)  WordPress 2.0.0 (PHP, released December 31, 2005)  Yazd version 1.0 (Java, released February 20, 2002)  LOOKING FOR IDEAS! 11

12. OWASP Where are the vulnerabilities?  Don’t have a master list of vulnerabilities (yet)  Counting on the community to contribute  Experimenting with using the issue tracker at Google Code to allow the community to contribute vulnerabilities as they are found  May move to wiki page(s) on the OWASP site 12

13. OWASP What’s in a name?  Tentatively called “OWASP Broken Web Applications Project”  I’m open to suggestions 13

14. OWASP The Future  Establish as an OWASP project  Wiki page  Mailing list  Update project for collaboration  Create and maintain documentation  Push content to Google Code  Incorporate additional broken apps  The larger, the better  Would like more real / realistic applications  Adobe Flash (could use some help here)  Ruby on Rails? 14

15. OWASP More Information and Downloads  More information can be found at http://code.google.com/p/owaspbwa/  Version 0.9 of the VM has been released!  Linked from the blog at mandiant.com  I have a few CDs of the VM for anyone who wants them 15

16. OWASP 16 I welcome any help / broken apps you can provide!
