Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for client-side application analysis is provided. Client-side application analysis involves determining and testing, using client-side application interfaces and the like, data input points and analyzing client requests and server responses. A security vulnerability analyzer can be employed to analyze content for client-side application files, such as Flash files and Java applets, extract addresses and data parameters embedded in the client-side application file, and modify the data parameters according to user-defined test criteria. The modified data parameters are transmitted as part of a request to a respective server used to service requests from the client-side application files. The security vulnerability analyzer analyzes the response from the server to ascertain if there are any security vulnerabilities associated with the interface between the client-side application file and the server.

Abstract: A system provides for fuzzy classification in comparisons of scanner responses. A web application test suite performs tests against a web application by sending client requests from a testing computer to the server running the web application and checking how the web application responds. A thorough web application security scan might involve thousands of checks and responses. As a result, some sort of programmatic analysis is needed. One such evaluation involves comparing one response against another. Response matching that compares two HTTP responses might use fuzzy classification processes.
