Hello. Hello.

Hello.

What

>> Hello.

Yeah, it's working. [Music]

>> Hello.

Okay, perfect. It's working. Uh I think

we can start. Hi everyone. We have

people online. We have people here in

person. Um uh my name is N. Uh I am the

coach for the CTF and uh also uh I am a

vertra employee as a director of

emerging tech uh innovation and

architecture. Today I'm going uh just to

give you an introduction about our

session that it will be uh hosted by our

uh lead application engineer Muhammad

Abuadura and Wad our QA uh senior uh

senior QA engineer. So today's session

it will be about break it like a tester

where it will be uh representing some

tactics that the QA tester uh use it um

dur to do some security finding and it

will follow up by uh a live demo session

uh with for with our uh lead application

Muhammad Abu Kadura representing um and

how he how he solved an issue on a

native mobile uh that it was found by

man in the middle attack using uh some

techniques and uh between nanoflows and

micrflows. So welcome everyone. I hope

you will enjoy the session and and good

luck with that challenges. Thank you.

Hey everyone, it's lovely to have you

all here today and whoever watching us

on the stream. Hello, good morning, good

afternoon. Uh, I would like to kick off

this session with a quick introduction

about myself. Uh, my name is Watiat. I'm

a certified senior quality assurance

engineer with extensive experience in in

functional and nonfunctional testing. My

main focus is identifying weaknesses,

bottlenecks, and edge cases which might

impact our systems and end users.

While I'm not a while I'm not a cyber

security specialist, I bring the

perspective of a professional QA who is

trained to think critically about systems

systems

not only in the way of does it work and

also uh if it might fail and what's the

impact of that failure. So today we'll

be focusing on um So today we'll be

focusing on how to use our skills as a

QA in finding vulnerabilities and uh

saving our system from

hackers. Okay.

So um QA when working with Mandex a QA

usually verify if apps behaves correctly

whether it was about page loading uh

workflows running and if data is stored

but MEX is usually used for sensitive

business processes such as customer

portals, financial services, government

solutions which makes its security as

critical as its functionality and if not

more. Us as QAs, we already explored the

unexpected and we never play by the

rules. So with a small mind shift from

traditional QA, we would be great threat hunters.

hunters. Okay.

Okay.

Attention to details is a skill 101 for

any QA. We notice inconsistencies, bad

or wrong behavior, and even a tiny

misalignment which makes developers hate

us so much.

Okay. Uh but why don't we look at the

bigger picture? Let's say that I was

testing a website. Okay. I logged in

using the username John Do, but I

entered the wrong password. Mandx

verified those credentials and returned

the message in connect password for user

John Do. If you want to stick to the

surface, you would say that this test

has passed because we were not able to

security impact of this is pretty huge

because that message revealed the

existence of that username which might

be abused in brute attack uh in brute

force attacks.

Another thing exploratory testing let's

say that we were testing a form or a

text field or anything that input that

uh that accept inputs. Okay, we entered

special characters and they were

accepted into that field. If we didn't

use Mendix built-in input validation

that would expose our system to

Okay, we already uh discussed a few

examples that represents the power of

shifting our mindset from does it work

to can it be broken by but why don't we

think more outside of the box.

What would happen if I intentionally try

to bypass our security checks? Let's go

back to the login example. Okay. I

entered the credentials. Medics verified

it. If we uh if we if we displayed the

correct message and everything was

right, the user was not able to login.

That would actually pass a test. But

what if I intentionally manipulate the

uh the response from the network tab?

Would I pass the MEX UI? And are my

checks only implemented in UI or also in

the back end?

Another thing is user role testing or

switching which is widely used in menx

especially in admin portals. Let's say I

was working using a limited role uh

while navigating through this website I

would only see the authorized pages. But

if I bookmarked a restricted page or I

know the link for a page that's only

supposed to be displayed to the super

admin. Clicking on that bookmark or

opening the the URL would it display the

page or it wouldn't. If that was

displayed then our our access are misconfigured.

To recap those were the points that

we've discussed input viation negative

testing user switching handed or

indirect navigation path and also added

session management. We all know the

importance of session management.

Leaving a user session active for too

long will expose our system to risk. But

also it has another impact. It might

overload our system which might cause it

uh MEX provides strong uh strong

security defaults such as entity access

rules, page page access control and

cross- site scripting protection. But

misconfiguration and overlooked rules

are common. QAS already have the already

have the skill to spot vulnerabilities

simply by asking what what would happen

if I break it or or if I misuse it. Okay.

Okay.

Um lastly I would like to emphasize on

something. Functioning applications is

good but functionality is only half of

the bottle. Having functional uh having

a fast, secure, resilient, userfriendly

and functional application is the end

goal. By combining both functional and

nonfunctional testing, then adding menex

security which is going to be the cherry

on top, we would have a bulletproof

system. Okay,

that would conclude my part for today. I

wish you all bug and threat

bug and threateree development. I will

leave you with my colleague Muhammad who

will introduce you to man in the middle

and how to secure applications against it.

Okay. Hello everyone. My name is

Muhammad Abu Khadura. I a lead

application engineer here here as a

Vertra. I have joined Avertra four years

ago. So since uh that time I have been

uh leading multiple banking projects. So

those project were uh contains of uh web

application and native mobile application.

application.

So it's great to be here today at

capture the flag events. Uh so guys

today uh our presentation uh will

revolve around illustrating how uh a

threat actor will can leverage device

proxies. So uh to to intercept the the

data that will leave the native mobile

into uh to the server side.

So this interception

uh this interception will will allow the

attacker to view or even modify the data

in the transit of the payloads.

So uh

so today we are going to go through

three main parts. uh the attack the

strategy and the result. So firstly the

attack we are going to show you how

exactly the attacker is going to

intercept the data in the transit

between client side and the server side.

Next we will move to the strategy. So

here where we are going to explain our

strategy which is uh application level

encryption and decryption.

And finally we will go to the result. we

will run the exact same attack that we

already have uh done in the first step

but this time with our solution in place.

So uh we are looking here guys at uh in

this image we are seeing a classic man

in the middle attack right where the

attacker places themselves in the line

of communication between the client side

and the server side uh logic so they can

intercept the data. So uh the attacker

will use a specialized uh software uh

called interception proxy. So in this

session today we are going to use one of

the most uh common tools uh called burp suite.

So uh in burp suite once the uh the

traffic uh reach let's say the network

side leaves the the native mobile side

this burpuite this tool will capture the

traffic and decrypt the https or SSL

pinning that we are using to uh to give

control to give control to the attacker

to view or even modify the data in transit.

transit. Okay.

Okay.

>> So yeah uh now we are going to show you

a a small demo how the attacker will

intercept this uh traffic or let's say

the payload once it leaves the mobile

device and uh reach the network. he will

be able to view, modify, uh change uh

anything in the payload itself uh using

the tool that we talked about which is

So, I'm going to I'm going to uh this is

guys the B suite uh tool that we already

talked about. um you will need to

configure the proxy setting in uh to be

able to intercept the payload or the

request that have left the mobile. So in

our case today now I'm going to show it

to you without any uh solution without

our solution actually application level

encryption. I'm going to uh start the

intercept intercept. Let's make it on.

I'm going to enter values. Uh in this in

this example uh I'm going to enter it on

the mobile. Uh we are going to enter

from account to account transaction

amount and the currency. So from account

let's make it 111. Uh the two account

222 for example transaction amount let's

make it 100. And the currency

So I'm going to hit on submit.

Burp suit will start capturing all the

requests that is coming out uh from the

device. So as you can see here uh this

is the request that have left the

device. So if you can uh you can see the

entity name uh the attributes inside

this payload. So the entity name is uh

bank account right. Uh if you you can

see here the from account that we have

entered the value is 111 the two account

the transaction amount you can see

actually everything inside this payload.

So for now let's uh let's change the

transaction amount. Let's make it for

Uh then just we are going to click on

forward. This will forward the uh the

request to the server side. I'm going to

also show you uh on menx I have already

added the debugger to see the data how

it have been reached to the server side.

So as you can see we have entered the

from account the currency the two

account and the transaction amount. The

transaction amount now is reached the

server with uh uh 1,000 and we already

uh entered on the mobile application

100. So the the attacker was able to

intercept the request. He was able to

view all the data and the most important

thing he was able to change the data

itself from 100 to 1,000.

So this is guys uh the attack that we

are uh we are going to have a solution

So guys yeah uh as we just saw uh the

impact the impact itself is uh severe.

So uh we have seen uh how sensitive data

uh we have seen uh we we have seen

sensitive data exposure uh which have

lead uh leds to unauthorized action. Uh

as we just saw in the example, the

attacker have been able to view all the

payload itself. He was able to modify

the payload uh to from we we changed

actually the transaction amount from 100

to 1,000 uh which will lead to um uh a

loss of trust in our application. So

that's why the uh our solution which is

application level encryption is

important in our case. So guys the most

important takeaway uh from this section

is we can't uh we can't u we can't rely

just on the HTTPS itself. We need

another layer of security

which will lead us to our strategy.

uh slides right

so guys uh this uh which as as I

mentioned before this will lead us to

our strategy

so uh we will implement uh our an let's

say application level encryption and

decryption to prevent uh this whole

attack from happening inside the the

network itself.

So the concept is basic um as we just

saw we don't just uh rely on the let's

say in interception layers itself uh we

can't we can't just rely on the HTTPS or

SSL pinning we need another layer as we

mentioned before to cap to encrypt the

data on the client side right after it

before it goes to the network itself uh

once it reached the network. Uh let's

say that this data this payload will be

cipher cipher text. He the attacker will

not see anything. The data will be

encrypted. So what once this uh payload

reach the server side, it will be

decrypted again and uh it will return to

its uh original uh format. So it can be

processed at the server side itself.

So this is how it will look like in mind

context. So in in mind we are going to

do encryption inside the nanoflow which

is obviously the client side. Uh we are

going to use uh an inter uh let's say an

encryption mechanism. Uh in our example

we are going to use JWT.

So once the device or the nanoflow

encrypt this data it will go to uh the

network itself during the transit the

data even if the attacker was able to

intercept the request and compromise

let's say the HTTPL uh and the SSL

pinning he will not be able to uh let's

say to to view or even edit the data

itself. it will already be unreadable

cipher text and uh once the uh the

request reach the server side in a

micrflow we will uh do the decrypt

mechanism with the same J JWT. So guys

uh here the the most important thing

that we will we will need to take uh

that we will need to actually be careful

with it is the keys for the encryption

and decryption. we have to to manage

manage it in a secure way that uh the

attacker will not be able to have access

to those keys. Uh so he cannot uh let's

say decrypt the payload himself. So now

we are going to do uh another demo

another we will show you another example

but this time with our solution in place

uh we are going to show you exactly how

the attacker uh will uh see the payload

after the application level encryption

So guys, I'm going to enter the same

values that we have entered before,

which is the from account 111 and the

two account will be 22.

The transaction amount uh we have added

100 and the currency was uh USD in our

uh previous example. So I'm going to

turn on the interception on the uh burp

suite uh tool. So I'm going to hit on

submit. Now we will see the request in B

suite. So guys, as we can see on uh the

screen that this is the payload with the

our solution application level

encryption the the object itself the

payload was encrypted inside the client

side in anlow and reach the network. The

the attacker was able to intercept the

the request itself but he can't see

anything. It's already cipher text in

the in the transit. there's nothing uh y

everything was will be gibberish for him

he will he will not know what is the

parameter that is being uh passed or

what is the object type what is the

values anything so here everything is

encrypted I'm going to forward it now

uh to see it exactly in mind how it's

going to be so uh now if you can see my

screen the request have reached the

server side as you can See the value is

encrypted nothing clear uh so nothing

happened to it. So firstly uh in our uh

micrflow we are going to uh first uh

decrypt this uh payload that have

reached the string value. Uh after

decrypt it it will be converted to uh

JSON structure. We can see it here. This

is the same object as JSON structure.

Then we are going to uh convert it back

to an object. So it can be uh returned

to its original format. So the the the

system will complete pro the process

that he already started.

So guys have you have as you have seen

uh one second let me go back to the slides.

So as we have seen uh our our solution

uh let's say application level

encryption and decryption will focus on

the encryption itself. So firstly on the

nanoflow on the client side we are going

to get that object that we will need to

pass it uh from the client side to the

server side. We will need to change it

uh convert it actually to uh JSON

format. After changing it to JSON format

we are going to encrypt it. Uh once the

data as we have seen reach the server

side it's going to be decrypted again.

then it will be converted converted to

uh an object. So u the server side will

will have uh uh will see the data in its

original format. So he can do the

process that uh he's supposed to do. One

more thing I wanted to add here is uh

any parameter any parameter you are

passing from the client side to the

server side will be exposed. So you need

to encrypt in the client side and

decrypt in the server side. The

additional thing is even if you return

data from the micrflow to the nanoflow.

So the response which will come from the

the server side to the uh let's say the

client side will be also exposed. So you

need also to encrypt inside the server

side. Same same steps. encrypt the data,

send it back to the uh client side uh

encrypted and in the client side you

need to decrypt it again and do the

whole scenario the whole steps.

So to summarize

uh let's go back. So guys to summarize

u it's important to to understand that

uh security is about layers. So we have

multiple layers here for security. We

have HTTPS TLS, we have SSL pinning. So

as we just saw in our example, uh we

can't just rely on HTTPS or SSL pinning.

So it might be uh compromised

uh by the attacker itself. That's why we

have got to our solution uh the third

layer uh our solution uh which is

application level encryption. And

there's uh that that's the place for uh

our solution. This is the third layer

the extra layer that we will have on

this. So uh actually the result will be

uh guaranteed that the our payload is is

secure and uh the data reach uh without

any manipulation by the attacker. Okay.

Okay.

So guys, I'm going to leave you with uh

three main points uh from our session

today. So firstly, the threat is real,

right? So we demonstrated that man in

the middle attack uh was able to

intercept the communication and uh let's

say view and even modify the data in

transit even with HTTPS was there. So he

will be able to actually reach the data.

Secondly, the solution is uh the

solution is to think in layers. So we

can't put all of our trust in the uh

let's say that that those channels which

is the HTTP TLS and the SSL pinning. we

need to add uh another extra layer of

security uh so we can um let's say uh

encrypt the data before it reach the the

server side and finally um actually the

the let's say the the in in the as as as

a result uh we have been able to uh to

let's say

protect our data our payloads in inside

the network itself. So the attacker was

not able to see anything inside this

data. So this will uh ensures that uh

confidentiality and strategy uh sorry

and integrity of our data remains uh untouchable.

untouchable.

So yeah this is uh everything guys for

today. Thank you for listening and hope

you will actually

uh use uh some tips from this uh session

today so you can capture the flag. Thank

Thank you W. Thank you Muhammad. Um so I

think there was one question online

about a key for the per suite if there

is a version but uh there's a community

version they can download. No key is required.

required.

>> Yeah they can use it actually. Yeah uh

they can use it without keys. I already

used it without the keys. Yeah, exactly.

So, it it will not give them all the the

the options. Uh but uh at least it will uh

Exactly. Yes. Exactly.

>> Uh let's see if there is another

question from the audience about the

tool or anything

or Muhammad Alad.

If you need guys any help in

actually exactly tool, we are going to

help you with it.

>> You can ask anything regarding it. But

yeah, I'm not an expert actually in this

tool, but at least we can help each

other. Yeah,

>> thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you all.
