Icarus Icarus I did that in the pages that are after the loggin on page load event, my question is if is it possible to do that in web config file?

No, there's no way to store specific session values in Web. I don't see a problem with doing it in code yourself. It's 2,3 lines only. If you need to apply it to many pages, just extend your pages from a BasePage and overload OnPageLoad and put that line of code there — Icarus. Sign up or log in Sign up using Google.

Given that this is one of the most frequently found vulnerabilities, there is ample information regarding mitigation online and very good reason to get it fixed. Hackers are also aware that this is a frequently found vulnerability and so its discovery and repair is that much more important. If your current set of tools is indicating that it is present but you think it is probably a false positive, please request a demonstration of beSECURE.

The secret killer of VA solution value is the false positive. There was an industry wide race to find the most vulnerabilities, including Vulnerabilities in NULL Session Available SMB , and this resulted in benefit to poorly written tests that beef up scan reports by adding a high percentage of uncertainty. This may have sold a lot of systems some years ago, but it also stuck almost all VA solutions with deliberately inaccurate reporting that adds time to repairs that no administrator can afford.

Beyond Security did not participate in this race to mutually assured destruction of the industry and to this day produces the most accurate and actionable reports available. This is the most severe combination of security factors that exists and it is extremely important to find it on your network and fix it as soon as possible.

Windows XP and later provide the six policies listed below for controlling what information can be accessed anonymously. Kerberos is really the way to go. Security Blob: abb2aaa10baf…. Simple Protected Negotiation. This behavior is not necessarily default in older versions of Windows. Pen tests can only go into so much depth in its analysis. Collecting and analyzing packets is beyond the abilities of most products. A false positive can be identified when a valid authentication was passed under the covers using the implicit credential behavior of Windows.

SMB encryption is one of those settings. Not only must both client and server support SMB3 and be encryption enabled, but file share or server must explicitly enable encryption. What is the best way to see whether SMB encryption and other security features are working? You guessed it, packet capture. Trying to determine accurate results from pen testing without a packet capture is like trying to discover life in the deep ocean by staring really hard at the ocean surface from a boat deck.

So the next time you get back failed test for SMB on a pen test, remember to check those packets to make sure the test is accurate. You must be a registered user to add a comment.
