Introduction
WhiteHat Arsenal 1.07 Beta Release
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.
