摘要: Web applications rely heavily on client-side computation to examine and validate form inputs that are supplied by a user (e.g., "credit card expiration date must be valid"). This is typically done for two reasons: reduce burden the server avoid latencies in communicating with server. However, when fails replicate validation performed client, it potentially vulnerable attack. In this paper, we present novel approach automatically detecting potential server-side vulnerabilities of kind existing (legacy) web through blackbox analysis. We discuss design implementation NoTamper, tool realizes approach. NoTamper has been employed discover several previously unknown number open-source live sites.
