Re: How to be man in the middle for a http communication!!

6-Jun-10 19:57

Hi,

I love to learn about HTTP as much as possible. From a long time, I am hearing that, I should use SSL when passing sensitive data. Because, a man in the middle can capture the plain text sensitive data while I am sending the data from my browser to a website. Ok, but I did not find any article talking about how those 'man in the middle' people capture the data !! I searched in google, did not find any! Looks like I am protecting my data using SSL against a mechanism of attack and the mechanism is not available to public. I am highly curious to know about it. Can anyone please give me some links / articles about this ?

By the way, it is just for learning intention. Should it be rude or indecent to discuss about this topic or if it is a sensitive matter, then, you wont have to tell me. But please at least tell me that if it is legal or illegal to learn about it !!

I don't wanna be 'That' guy Big Grin | :-D

But I highly doubt anyone here is going to help you code a virus, not saying that is your intention although it sounds extremely suspect Hmmm | :|

, but by intercepting data sent from the client to the server would definitely be a piece of malicious code that I’m sure the end user would not be aware of.

The reason you can't find any information on how to actually implement this is ... well ... just what I said above, it's just not ethical and therefore you will not find it on 'reputable' site such as The Code Project and the less than reputable ones that will actually give you that information will likely infect your browser and your computer with herpes or something you would probably be safer bare backing a $10 ‘Lady of the Evening’ Poke tongue | ;-P

If at first you don't succeed ... post it on The Code Project and Pray.

Dear Adam,

Thanks a lot for your reply. I understood the point. So, someone learned this technology and causing a threat for us who worry about protecting our website from them using SSL. But, how that 'someone' learned this technique as there is no article about it anywhere !! For example, if I want to make a software or technology to protect against 'Man in the middle', I will need to learn about it first!, right ? So, even for a honest intension, this technology is not available for public! Is it something like, I will need to experiment about HTTP a lot in my lab and after spending years, I will understand what and how !! If I want to make a software to protect from this attack, I need to go thru all of this 'RE INVENTING THE WHEEL' ? Just because, no one will tell me how this attacks are happening !!

Anyway, thanks agian. The topic is very interesting for me to discuss. Smile | :)

I would love to hear more replies about it.

I think you might be missunderstanding the actual issue.

The issue is that someone has infected either the client machine, a 'man in the middle' server or the actual server itself.

There really isnt much you can do to prevent that as these are things that happen far beyond the control of your server side code.

The reason that people are telling you to implement SSL to avoid the *potential* for this type of attack is because SSL simply encrypts the data before it is sent from the client machine to the server and then it is decrypted on the server side for your code to use.

So long story short, there is nothing you can do aside from enabling SSL on your server which is something you should do anyways if you are dealing with sensitive information.

If you really just want to learn more about that type of attack i would suggest Wikipedia or something of the sort, but im pretty sure your not going to get a bunch of web developers to tell you how to intercept their data Laugh | :laugh:

How to enforse 'https' or 'http' protocol in ASp.NET Web Form Routing ?

Nadia Monalisa6-Jun-10 19:19

Scroll bar not maintaining its position in ListView (ASP.net)

6-Jun-10 19:19

Hi
I am implementing Routing in my ASp.NET Web Form Application (.NET 4.0). I guess, Routing always consider the same protocol where the request is coming form. I mean, if my browsing page has url as 'https://www.myDomain.com/login.aspx' and if I have a link in this page which points to a Route, then, my application will redirect to the routing page (by clicking the link) which will be of 'https' protocol. (right ?), in that case, how can I enforce my application to use 'http' protocol in the redirected page using Routing ?

I want to generate the routing url from my code. I learned GetRouteUrl(string routename, routeparameters) will generate the url for me, but how can I get absolute url with http or https for a route ?

Please help!

Hi I have a listview inside a DIV which shows the scroll bars. At one time, let's say, 10 rows can be seen. I scroll down and click Edit on 25 row. To my surprise, the scroll goes to the first row (although if I go back to 25th row, the row is in edit mode)

My issue, how I can make sure that the scroll bar maintains its position to 25th row after clicking on Edit button?

Please advise. Thanks

How to send mail automatically.

6-Jun-10 19:45

Looks like you page gets a postback when you click the edit link.

If so, try to set the Page.MaintainScrollPositionOnPostBack Property to true to return the user to the same position in the client browser after postback. (i.e. enabling smart navigation, see if it works!)

If not, you will have to use javascripts in order to restore the scrolls. For that, before postback, you need to store the scroll position in a variable and then after page reloads, set it back.

You want a Windows Service.

Make a Windows Service and just deploy it on a server. It's just that you need to connect to the same database that your application is connecting. It's the database content or configuration settings done in Windows Service that will act a trigger for emails and not application.

You need to communicate with DB using same connection string as you used in your application for saving/reading data.
There will be no manual steps involved. You will be able send email automatically every week.

You can solve your issue by using two methods.

1> you have to create window service, deploy it and install it on server

2> you have to create SQL Job n upload it on server

Hope this solution will help you

You just made a mess out here. Your question is not at all clear of what you want to do and what is the issue. Please rephrase/update the question with what you are looking at.

Re: Requesting for a suggession about choosing the best method to determine Debug mode

5-Jun-10 9:23

Hi,
I got 2 solutions to find out if the web application is in debug mode or not.

Solution 1:

if(HttpContext.Current.IsDebuggingEnabled)
{
   // Debug mode
}

Solution 2:

CompilationSection compilSec = (CompilationSection)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("system.web/compilation");
if(compilSec.Debug)
{
  // Debug mode.
}

I am confused, which solution is better !! For me, the first solution is very appealing, but I am not sure if there is any limitation or performance issue with the first solution and so I should choose the second one ?

What are you trying to accomplish? Are you attempting to run some code only in debug? The usual method is to use the #DEBUG preprocessor directive. That way the code is not compiled into the release, decreasing the size and improving performance.
