Credentials Exposure Vulnerabilities In Custom Web Publishing With XML and XSLT

Posted on: 05-19-08 07:24 PM Posted by: Ocean West

Custom Web Publishing (CWP) carries with it inherent vulnerabilities for the exposure of any credentials a user enters into a browser’s credentials dialog box.

The bottom line however is this: CWP credentials are subject to being intercepted and retained without any warning to users and without any knowledge that a breach has occurred.

Automated Web Scraping

by Matt Petrowsky

minutes

Article options

The web is full of valuable information and images. The trick is knowing one of two methods to get at it. The first is learning how to use the API provided by the company or person who has the data you need, and the second is learning how to scrape that data - when the first option isn't possible.

In this video, I walk through the example of grabbing a chart image which is generated by the well know service BigCharts.com. This example applies to grabbing any image from the Internet.

While not all services offer an API (Application Programming Interface), it is typically possible to get most anything from a web page.

If it's rendered by a browser, then the text, image or file can be had.
