  • Patent number: 12216763
    Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein detect Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in a web application. In some configurations, CSRF vulnerabilities are detected by analyzing the source code of the web application. Specifically, CSRF vulnerabilities are detected by determining if CSRF mitigation features of one or more frameworks are being used incorrectly or inconsistently. Some CSRF mitigation features provided by web frameworks inject capabilities into the web application, e.g. to automatically store an anti-forgery token in a cookie, copy the anti-forgery token from the cookie into an HTML, form or a request header, or determine whether form submissions or request headers include the same anti-forgery token as the cookie. CSRF vulnerabilities may be detected by analyzing the source code to identify when one of these features is omitted or used incorrectly end-to-end. CSRF vulnerabilities are also detected by identifying when CSRF mitigation features of multiple web frameworks are incompatible.

Such persistent login may be based on linking user identity across accounts of different entities to allow each entity to maintain control over their respective sets of user data, while providing a streamlined user experience that avoids much of the repetitive need to login to different services with different login credentials (e.g., during periods of heavy use). Such persistent login may utilize a set of tokens issued and exchanged between devices of the partnering entities. Such tokens may include an access token, refresh token, and identity token. When a user associated with a first entity requests access to information secured by a second entity, such request may be associated with the access token. If the access token is determined to be expired, the refresh token may be used to refresh the access token, which may also trigger issuance of a new refresh token.

  • Patent number: 12212576
    Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for defining and applying constraints that regulate a supervisee's interaction with applications. In one implementation, the technique provides a user interface presentation to a supervisor that lists a set of applications that run on plural application execution platforms. The user interface presentation also allows the supervisor to set platform-agnostic constraint information for any identified application. The platform-agnostic constraint information, once set for an application, constrains interaction by a supervisee with all versions of that same application. That is, the constraint information is said to be agnostic with respect to platform in the sense that it applies to a variety of application execution platforms that run the application. In one example, the platform-agnostic constraint information specifies a permitted amount of an activity that the supervisee is permitted to perform across all versions of an application.

  • Patent number: 12200035
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods relating to full motion video (FMV) routing in one-way transfer (OWT) systems. The present technology reserves a particular channel for transmission of a video stream, and then transmits the video stream from a low-trust computing environment to a high-trust computing environment along a data path defined by the channel. When the video stream is received on the high-trust side, the channel, on which the video stream is received, is determined and used to query a routing table that returns destination addresses of destination devices to which the video stream is to be transmitted. The video stream is then delivered to the destination devices having the corresponding addresses.

  • Patent number: 12191640
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for facilitating installation of cables within datacenters without signals being sent/received from outside the datacenter buildings. In particular, the mechanism for facilitating installation of cables within datacenters may include scanning cable codes (e.g., QR codes, bar codes, near field communication (NFC) codes, radio frequency identification (RFID) codes, etc.) and retrieving path information for scanned cable codes. The mechanism then proceeds to track the installation process by scanning codes located throughout a datacenter to verify that the cable installation is proceeding correctly. In instances where a scanned code does not match a code that is expected, based on an order within the path information, an error message is generated indicating that there may be a problem with the cable installation.
