Abstract

Web applications are popular targets of security attacks. One common type of such attacks is SQL injection, where an attacker using specially crafted inputs, causes a web application to generate and send a query that functions differently than the programmer intended. Thus a diagnostic feature of SQL injection attacks is that they change the intended syntactic structure of queries issued. This paper presents a query intent evaluation technique to detect possible SQL Injection attacks by tracing the queries in which the input substrings modify the syntactic structure of the rest of the query. This approach has been implemented in a tool which takes an SQL query as input and detects if it is a command injection attack.

Abstract

This paper presents some web server benchmarking techniques and tools that can be used to evaluate the performance of standalone as well as cluster web server systems. Various qualities and properties that should be provided by benchmarking tools are discussed. The focus is on comparing properties of some popular open source benchmarking tools which are readily available. This paper highlights the drawbacks in existing tools with respect to web clusters as currently no tool provides functionality to efficiently evaluate the performance of cluster web server systems.

Keywords
