Vulpy - Web Application Security Lab

Vulpy is a web application developed in Python / Flask / SQLite that has two faces.

GOOD: Tries to code with secure development best practices in mind.

BAD: Tries to code like (possibly) you. :p

Is developed has a laboratory for the following courses:

Secure Development of Securetia (https://www.securetia.com/cursos.html) Secure Development of EducaciónIT (https://www.educacionit.com/curso-de-desarrollo-seguro)

But you can use it has you want (MIT License)

OWASP Application Security Verification Standard

The "GOOD" version (not finished yet) will comply with the OWASP ASVS:

https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_Application_Security_Verification_Standard_Project

This will permit learn how to develop python code following the best security practices.

Installation

::

git clone https://github.com/fportantier/vulpy

cd vulpy

pip3 install --user -r requirements.txt

Features

• Login/Logout

Vulnerabilities

Some of the vulnerabilities present on the "BAD" version:

• Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
• SQL Injection
• Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
• Session Impersonation
• Insecure Deserialization
• Authentication Bruteforce
• Authentication Bypass

Note: The "GOOD" version (not finished yet) is supposed to don't have vulnerabilities, but I'm a human being, so...

Database Initialization

Both, "BAD" and "GOOD" versions, requires an initialization of the database.

This is done with the script "db_init.py" inside each of the directories (bad, and good).

Each version has their own sqlite files for the users and posts.

The execution of the script is, for example:

::

cd bad ./db_init.py

Default Credentials

After database initialization, three users are created:

::

Username Password

admin SuperSecret elliot 123123123 tim 12345678

You can login with any user, the application doesn't have a permissions system, so, the three have the same permissions.
