<p><b>Lesson Plan Title:</b> How to Perform Silent Transactions Attacks. </p>
|

</div>

|
||
<p><b>Concept / Topic To Teach:</b> </p>
|
||
This lesson teaches how to perform silent transactions attacks.

|
||
<b>How the attacks works:</b>
|
||
</p>
|
||
Any system that silently processes transactions using a single submission is dangerous to the client.
|
||
For example, if a normal web application allows a simple URL submission, a preset session attack will
|
||
allow the attacker to complete a transaction without the user’s authorization.
|
||
In Ajax, it gets worse: the transaction is silent; it happens with no user feedback on the page,
|
||
so an injected attack script may be able to steal money from the client without authorization.<br>

<p><b>General Goal(s):</b> </p>
|
||
<!-- Start Instructions -->
|
||
* This is a sample internet banking application - money transfers page.<br>
|
||
* It shows below your balance, the account you are transferring to and amount you will transfer.<br>
|
||
* The application uses AJAX to submit the transaction after doing some basic client side validations.<br>
|
||
* Your goal is to try to bypass the user's authorization and silently execute the transaction<br>
