The Polls are Open: Top 10 Web Hacks of 2007

Thank you to everyone who helped out with compiling the list of Web hacking techniques for the last year. It took a lot of time and effort scouring the Internet for all the new tricks and reading through the material to understand what was what. I did my best to sanitize the list, find the best references, and remove duplicates (probably still some left). I am confident though that the best of the best are in there to make a meaningful Top Ten for 2007.

There way the voting process works is each voter get 10 votes to distribute among their favorites. The suggested criteria is cleverness, severity, and overall impact. The polls will close on January 24, at which time the numbers will be tabulated and those with the most votes will rise to the top. With over 80 on the list, surpassing the number for 2006, competition is going to be fierce. GO VOTE!

Why list 5 hacks using the JAR vuln when they're all the same root cause?

Hey James, thanks for pointing it out. Like I mentioned in the post, in that big of a pool of links it was extremely hard to eliminate all the duplicates. Not to mention find everything. It would have taken me forever to figure out the root cause of each issue, so I just did the best I could with it and posted sooner rather than later. Should there be duplicates, I'll just add them together.

Hi Jeremiah,

Regarding "ASP.NET Request Validation Bypass Vulnerability", the link for the POC is correct, but the advisory points to a much older bypass. Notice that the details provided on both URLs(attack strings) do NOT match.

The correct URL for the original advisory, which includes a POC anyway is: http://www.procheckup.com/Vulner_PR0703.php , as included in Microsoft's advisory.

@Adrian, thanks for catching that. I got it updated.
