Hi guys, during OWASP AppSec Poland 2009 we presented a newly discovered input validation vulnerability called "HTTP Parameter Pollution" (HPP). Basically, it can be defined as the feasibility to override or add HTTP GET/POST parameters by injecting query string delimiters. In the last months, we have discovered several real world flaws in which HPP can be used to modify the application behaviors, access uncontrollable variables and even bypass input validation checkpoints and WAFs rules. Exploiting such HPP vulnerabilities, we have found several problems in some Google Search Appliance front-end scripts, Ask.com, Yahoo! Mail Classic and many other products. If you are interested, you are kindly invited to have a look at: http://www.owasp.org/images/b/ba/AppsecEU09_CarettoniDiPaola_v0.8.pdf We're going to release additional materials in the next future, including a video of the Yahoo! attack vector. Stay tuned on http://blog.mindedsecurity.com and http://blog.nibblesec.org Cheers, Stefano Di Paola and Luca Carettoni -- Stefano Di Paola Chief Technology Officer, LA/ISO27001 Minded Security Research Labs Director Minded Security - Application Security Consulting Official Site: www.mindedsecurity.com Personal Blog: www.wisec.it/sectou.php ..................
