Free Security Tools by iSEC Partners
Today I discovered an impressive collection of security tools developed and offered for free by iSEC Partners and because I really appreciate any open source effort, I thought at least I could present them.
There are four categories :
Since the topic of this blog is more application security, I will detail the Application Tools:
- Forensic Fuzzing Tools
This is a collection of scripts that can be used to generate fuzzed files, fuzzed file systems, and file systems containing fuzzed files. These can be used to test the robustness of forensics tools and examination systems. - SAMLPummel
SAML Pummel is a BeanShell plug-in for WebScarab. It automates eight different injection attacks to assist in auditing the implementation of SAML 2.0 single sign-on systems. - Jailbreak
Jailbreak is a tool for exporting certificates marked as non-exportable from the Windows certificate store. This can help when you need to extract certificates for backup or testing. You must have full access to the private key on the filesystem in order for jailbreak to work. - ProxMon
ProxMon is an extensible Python based framework that reduces testing effort, improves consistency and reduces errors. Its use requires limited additional effort as it processes the proxy logs that you’re already generating and reports discovered issues. In addition to penetration testing, ProxMon is useful in QA, developer testing and regression testing scenarios. - CyberVillainsCA
The CyberVillainsCA is a small Java library for on-the-fly generation, duplication and substitution of X.509 certificates. It is intended for use in building or extending security testing tools, for example, WebScarab (example included). - File Fuzzers
These tools are useful for testing any program which processes binary file inputs such as archivers and image file viewers. - Windows IPC Fuzzing Tools
This is a collection of tools used to attack applications that use Windows Interprocess Communication mechanisms. This package includes tools to intercept and fuzz named pipes, as well as a shared memory section fuzzer. - WSMap
WSMap is a Python-based tool that helps penetration testers find web service endpoints and discovery files.- Parses WebScarab logs to find testing targets
- Tests URLs and implies URLs found in log
- Tests for WSDL and DISCO web service discovery formats
WSBang is a Python-based tool used to perform automated security testing of SOAP based web services.
- Takes URL of WSDL as input
- Fuzzes all methods and parameters in the service
- Identifies all methods and parameters, including complex parameters
- Fuzzes parameters based on type specified in WSDL
- Reports SOAP responses and faults
SecureCookies is a tool to evaluate whether a given URL is utilizing the security options in the cookie.
Event Log Zap (Elzap) is a tool that deletes individual events in the Windows Event Log. It can list records of the three default logs, including the Security, System, and Application logs, and then remove records without any interruption to the system.
As said, these tools are released for free and I’m sure that iSEC Partners will more than happy for any feedback you could provide.
BONUS : I’m very eager to test the "soon to be released" SecurityQA Toolbar, a great testing product for web application security presented as a browser toolbar !
