Abstract: Various techniques for detecting a persistent cross-site scripting vulnerability are described herein. In one example, a method includes detecting, via the processor, a read operation executed on a resource using an instrumentation mechanism and returning, via the processor, a malicious script in response to the read operation. The method also includes detecting, via the processor, a write operation executed on the resource using the instrumentation mechanism and detecting, via the processor, a script operation executed by the malicious script that results in resource data being sent to an external computing device from a client device. Furthermore, the method includes receiving, via the processor, metadata indicating the execution of the read operation, the write operation, and the script operation.

Abstract: A client application performs certificate pinning as a means of authenticating the identity of a server. A proxy is interposed in the communications path of the client and the hosting server and provides a proxy security certificate to the client. In response to the client extracting a proxy authentication component from the proxy security certificate, operation of the client is paused and a hosting server authentication component is extracted from a hosting server security certificate. The client operation is resumed, providing the extracted hosting server authentication component to the client, in substitution for the proxy authentication component. Based on receiving the extracted hosting server authentication component, the client authenticates the proxy to receive communications directed to the hosting server.
