Classification of logical vulnerability based on group attacking method
New advancement in the field of e-commerce software technology has also brought many benefits, at the same time developing process always face different sort of problems from design phase to implement phase. Software faults and defects increases the issues of reliability and security, that’s reason why a solution of this problem is required to fortify these issues. The paper addresses the problem associated with lack of clear component-based web application related classification of logical vulnerabilities through identifying Attack Group Method by categorizing two different types of vulnerabilities in component-based web applications. A new classification scheme of logical group attack method is proposed and developed by using a Posteriori Empirically methodology
Using HTML5 to Prevent Detection of Drive-by-Download Web Malware
The web is experiencing an explosive growth in the last years. New
technologies are introduced at a very fast-pace with the aim of narrowing the
gap between web-based applications and traditional desktop applications. The
results are web applications that look and feel almost like desktop
applications while retaining the advantages of being originated from the web.
However, these advancements come at a price. The same technologies used to
build responsive, pleasant and fully-featured web applications, can also be
used to write web malware able to escape detection systems. In this article we
present new obfuscation techniques, based on some of the features of the
upcoming HTML5 standard, which can be used to deceive malware detection
systems. The proposed techniques have been experimented on a reference set of
obfuscated malware. Our results show that the malware rewritten using our
obfuscation techniques go undetected while being analyzed by a large number of
detection systems. The same detection systems were able to correctly identify
the same malware in its original unobfuscated form. We also provide some hints
about how the existing malware detection systems can be modified in order to
cope with these new techniques.Comment: This is the pre-peer reviewed version of the article: \emph{Using
