WhiteHat Arsenal 1.06 Beta Release
Free download available from:
http://community.whitehatsec.com/
What's new in WhiteHat Arsenal:
Four weeks have passed since the last release of WhiteHat Arsenal.
WhiteHat has spent that time killing various bugs and upgrading
features. WHArsenal 1.06 Beta, is now faster, easier to use, and
contains some new feature enhancements.
Among the several minor changes, you'll notice Forced Browsing has been
fitted with an HTTP Response Code lookup utility. This utility allows
the user to look up the meaning of any HTTP Response code found in the
HTTP/1.1 RFC. Encoding/Encrypting encoding has its own string
manipulation field. You'll also notice a new HTTP Fix-up option to help
with HTTP compliance. Also worth noting is an integrated Bug and
Feedback submission form. This allows bug and feedback notification to
happen easier. Remember we need all the feedback we can get to make
WHArsenal the best web application security product available.
Documentation on WHArsenal usage is also now part of the package.
New Screen shots available.
Quick Update:
- HTTP Response Code Lookup
- Interface Changes
- Encoding/Encryption entry fields.
- HTTP Fix Option.
- Feedback and Bug Fix forms.
- Faster Spider. The last releases of Spider had a "sleep 2" in the
code. This has now been removed so expect a 2 second improvement per
request while spidering.
- Documentation now included within WHArsenal.
* See changelog in the package for more detailed information.
WhiteHat Arsenal is designed to be the next generation of professional
web application security audit software. Architected from the ground up
to be a generic web application security productivity tool, WhiteHat
Arsenal provides security professionals and web application developers
access to the tools they need to make the job of securing web
applications faster and easier than ever before.
Currently, for even the most experienced security professionals, it is
cumbersome if not impossible to quickly and efficiently execute most
known web application attacks without resorting to quickly written
custom utilities. Writing custom utilities during a penetration test or
formal security review is a waste of time; a security professional's
time should be focused on actually identifying vulnerabilities and
resolving them. Unfortunately, penetration testers and web application
developers alike lack effective tools to test common, let alone hard to
find, security weaknesses. As a result, many mission critical web
applications are inadequately protected against the increasingly
prevalent threat of malicious attacks.
Many experienced information security professionals agree that
currently available web security scanners, which scan only for known
vulnerabilities, achieve only limited success as best. Furthermore,
these types of tools often result in an enormous overflow of false
positives resulting in wasted time and effort. WhiteHat Security
understands these frustrating shortcomings of the existing tools and the
increased need for securing the Internet's web applications. WhiteHat
Arsenal is poised to revolutionize the manner in which web applications
are penetration tested and secured.
WhiteHat Arsenal possesses a powerful suite of GUI-Browser based web
security tools. These endowments make WhiteHat Arsenal capable of
completing painstaking web security penetration test work faster and
more effectively than any tool currently available. Imagine having the
ability to quickly customize and execute just about any web security
attack, and having those penetration attempts logged in XML format for
later reporting or analysis.
WhiteHat Arsenal makes it possible to quickly focus attention on HTML
forms, to easily view their inputs, (even the hidden fields), and modify
them in seconds. It can be utilized to rapidly uncover a vast a number
of vulnerabilities in any web application by providing the ability to
perform any of the following attacks faster than ever before:
Perform the following attacks:
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
Parameter Tampering
Cookie Poisoning
URL Manipulation
CGI Directory Traversal
Direct OS Commanding
Meta Character Injection
SQL Command Injection
HTTP Request Header Manipulation
HTTP Request Method Manipulation
Protocol Manipulation
and many more variants and combinations...
WhiteHat Arsenal is about increasing the effectiveness of web
application security testing and audits, saving huge amounts of time in
the process. WhiteHat Security is on a mission to improve the way in
which people build, secure and penetration test web applications.
