SOLUTIONS FOR AUTO-TESTING AND AUTO-WARNING WEBSITE ERRORS BASED ON THE RESULTS OF THE WEBSITE ERROR SCANNING TOOLS

Abstract

Nowadays, there are commercial and free tools to automatically test websites’ security which is considered to be the positive point for pen-tester. In contrast, these tools might also produce false alerts. To minimize these false alerts, it is necessary to develop a tool which helps pen-tester verify alerts manually or automatically with cross-checking results collected from many pen-test tools. We name this tool PAT (Pen-Test Assistance Tool). PAT is able to save experiences from previous successful checking for future check. PAT also can check vulnerabilities automatically based on report of pen-test tools and warn website errors to web-masters automatically via email. In the first version of PAT, we focus on SQL Injection vulnerabilities in ASP.NET websites.
