Title: Malicious XML - Still a threat in 2010 (HT1-402)
Abstract: Many Cloud services include WSDLs and XML-consuming services. Although XML has been around a long time, attacks making use of XML are surprisingly resilient (or many not surprising at all, given that SQL Injection has also been known about for a long time). The Cloud now provides a much larger attack surface. Attendees will see practical examples of Malicious XML making use of vulnerabilities in the Xerces parser and other supporting tools typically used to process XML. We will show how newer attacks such as CDATA smuggling can be used in order to pass malicious data within an XML message. We will also examine how REST-based Web Services are not immune from XML-based attacks, even when they are not initiated by XML or SOAP messages.
