Secure Coding Antipatterns: Avoiding Vulnerabilities
TS-1238


Presenter: Charlie Lai and Andreas Sterbenz, Sun Microsystems, Inc


It is impossible to avoid introducing bugs when developing code, and even the simplest bugs can result in a major security vulnerability.

his session covers some common programming mistakes that can lead to security issues. More important, it shows you how to avoid them. We combed through past Java technology security vulnerabilities and other sources of information to come up with a list of security antipatterns that demonstrate some of the more commonly recurring problems. In each case, we discuss what is wrong and what is the proper fix.

The presentation is of interest to all developers, whether you work on the internals of a security component or on regular application or library code, because bugs in any area can have serious security ramifications.
