Re: ABE Anonymize action not applied to JavaScript cookie ac

Any site that allows state-changing operations via GET is basically broken and can't be protected via the usual mechanisms. If you really want to protect it, you'll need to use Deny rather than Anonymize. It would be protected if access to cookies were suppressed.... Using Deny is not an appealing ...

Re: ABE Anonymize action not applied to JavaScript cookie ac

I'm not talking about XSS ... CSRF basically relies upon two things ... the ability to send a command (e.g. transfer money), and authentication for that request (e.g. via cookie). For example, the following URL might be loaded in an invisible iframe: https://bank.example.com/transfer/?amount=100&...

Re: ABE Anonymize action not applied to JavaScript cookie ac

CSRF can occur whether the cookie processing is done by the target site on the server side or on the client side (in the case of frames). Attacks that rely upon server side processing of cookies do not rely upon hostile PHP/Perl/ASP/whatever coding on the target site either. An attacker's request ca...

ABE Anonymize action not applied to JavaScript cookie access

JavaScript is able to read and write cookies despite ABE applying the Anonymize action :(

Re: ABE should be able to compare against parent (bug? RFE?)

It might make the most sense to add an alternative to "from", such as "parent". This would also take care of the same ambiguity issue which applies to a ruleset which specifies "Accept ALL from SELF++" ahead of "Anonymize SUB" / "Anonymize INCLUSION(SUBDO...

ABE should be able to compare against parent (bug? RFE?)

Site * Accept SUB from SELF++ Anonymize SUB Site * Accept INCLUSION(SUBDOC) from SELF++ Anonymize INCLUSION(SUBDOC) I believe the above two rulesets are functionally identical. In either case, I expected either of these rulesets to always Anonymize a site if it is within an iframe, unless the paren...

[RFE] option to disable password filling for i/frames

It would be useful if there were an option to disable password filling for frames and iframes. Perhaps this could be part of ABE's Anonymize action, or perhaps it would be entirely separate from ABE. This would be useful to complement other countermeasures NoScript offers against clickjacking. These...

Re: "Allow sites to push their own rulesets" causes crashes

I've done a bit of research to get a general idea about adoption of ABE for Web Authors as I've been reconsidering keeping "Allow sites to push their own rulesets" enabled due to the stability issues noted in this thread. I checked the status codes for Alexa's top 500 sites (for both globa...

Re: ABE Anonymize action breaking icons on lots of sites

Specifically, the Anonymize action strips the query string if it consists of a single GET parameter without a value specified. So, while the following request gets modified (by removal of the query string): http://a.fsdn.com/sd/css/app.css?release_20150630 The following requests are allowed to pass ...

Is there any reason for me to continue to make note of any other sites I notice are affected at this point?

Re: "Allow sites to push their own rulesets" causes crashes

addons.prestashop.com also seems to be affected, although I can't reproduce as consistently. Seem to be able to reproduce about half the time on average.
