CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
Ethereal is an open source packet sniffer that can decode, filter and analyze network traffic with an easy to use GUI. Additionally, Ethereal can read the data files from a multitude of other packet sniffers, letting you analyze previously collected data. In this lab you will be directed to examine several files of captured traffic to better comprehend how different protocols interact and establish a working knowledge of Ethereal.

Requirements:
You will need a Windows XP system running on VMWare Workstation along with Ethereal and some files containing captured network traffic communications using different protocols.

Intro to SQL Injection Attack


Authors: Lee Derks, Eve Gedanic Spring 2008
Revised by: Alessandro Seazzu, Summer 2008

CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
This lab is designed to give you a feel for SQL injection attacks and what a hacker can gain from them. It also shows how you, as an application programmer, can lesson the probability of these types of attacks. In this lab you will be directed to input several SQL queries into a web form; then you will examine the query results to better understand how queries reveal sensitive information.

Requirements:
You will need a Windows XP system running on VMWare Workstation. The software and tools required for this tutorial(s) are open source, freeware, shareware, trial version or a combination thereof. It is recommended that the user take a few minutes to read the entire tutorial before starting any computer interactions.

ICMP Reset Attack


Authors: Luca Taylor, Fall 2007
Revised by: Hue Lai, Spring 2008

CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
This lab is designed to give you hands on experience with the execution of a blind ICMP reset attack against a vulnerable client. The environment we will simulate in the lab is one where an attacker will interrupt a download that is occurring on the victim’s machine. This attack will demonstrate the inherent vulnerability that is built-in to the ICMP specification.

Requirements:
The requirements include using VMWare with Microsoft Windows XP, and the Linux virtual appliance provided in the lab folder. The software and tools required for this tutorial(s) are open source, freeware, shareware, trial version or a combination thereof. As such, some tools or software might expire or will be outdated by the time this lab is executed. If the executables accompanying this lab do not work, please download the latest version from the website provided in this lab. It is recommended that the user take a few minutes to read the entire tutorial before starting any computer interactions.

Malicious Code and Network Analysis

Malicious Code and Network Analysis
Author: Alessandro Seazzu, Fall 2004
Revised: Joel Nunes, Spring 2006
Alessandro Seazzu, June 20, 2006

CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
This lab is designed to give the students a hands-on experience on what the potential distribution, behaviors and network communications of malicious code are. The environment simulated in the lab is one where an attacker distributes a macromedia flash game to a victim system. The victim executes the malicious code on their system believing that they are only playing a game.

Requirements:
The lab uses VMWare and two operating system images (Windows XP and Windows 2000) configured in an isolated network (host-only VMWare adapters) during the execution of malicious code.

Man in the Middle Attack (ARP Poisoning on HTTPS)


Authors: Meredith Haney and Katayoon Ghanbari, Fall 2007
Revised by: Hue Lai, Spring 2008

CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
This lab is based off of Lab 14 – Man in the Middle Attack on Windows Systems. It is a continuation of the Lab 14, created with the purpose of showing students how to set up a local network that reaches the outside Internet, configure IP addresses to set up the attack, and perform an ARP-HTTPS poisoning attack. Because of the nature of the attack, students will learn how freeware tools can fake certificates that prevent information from being encrypted over the HTTPS connection. Students will use a freeware tool, Cain & Abel, to capture packets and information sent over the HTTPS connection.

Requirements:
The requirements for this lab are the same as the original Man in the Middle lab (Lab 14 – Man in the Middle Attack on Windows Systems). *The following was taken directly from Lab 14: The requirements include using VMWare with Windows XP and two Microsoft Server 2003. The software and tools required for this tutorial(s) are open source, freeware, shareware, trial version or a combination thereof. As such, some tools or software might expire or will be outdated by the time this lab is executed. If the executables accompanying this lab do not work, please download the latest version from the website provided in this lab. It is recommended that the user take a few minutes to read the entire tutorial before starting any computer interactions.

Man in the Middle Attack: DNS Spoofing


Authors: Bradley Childs and James Martinez, Spring 2008
Revised by: Alessandro Seazzu, Summer 2008

CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
This lab is a continuation of such labs as: the Man in the Middle Attack on Windows Systems by Mike Sanchez and Ryan Toledo; and Man in the Middle Attack on an HTTPS Connection by Meredith Haney and Katayoon Ghanbari. The primary thread of these labs is to expose students to the basics of windows networks and the dangers that easy to obtain freeware tools can wreck havoc within such an environment. This lab continues that tradition by showing how easy it is to implement a DNS spoof using such a tool (Cain and Abel).

Requirements:
2 Windows XP Machines.
2 Windows Server 2003 machines.

Man in the Middle Attack on Windows Systems

Man in the Middle Attack on Windows Systems
Author: Mike Sanchez and Ryan Toledo, Spring 2005
Revised: Jessica Dillinger, Patricia Watson and Joel Nunes, Summer 2005
Alessandro Seazzu, June 28, 2006

CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
This lab is designed to primarily expose students to the dangers of man-in-the-middle or replay attacks in a Windows environment. Since replicating a network environment and traffic, is a prerequisite for this lab, they will also receive hands on experience with elementary network and routing design principles.

Requirements:
The requirements include using VMWare with Windows XP and two Microsoft Server 2003 installations. The software and tools required for this tutorial(s) are open source, freeware, shareware, trial version or a combination thereof.

Intro to Denial of Service Attack

Authors: Bandhi Chorh Khalsa, Fall 2004
Revised by: Jessica Dillinger, Patricia Watson and Joel Nunes, Summer 2005
Alessandro Seazzu, Fall 2006

CNSS/NSTISSI Mapping: n/a

Abstract:
This tutorial and attached lab will explain how a denial of service attack works. This lab is designed to give you hands on experience with a Denial of Service attack tool – dosNuke, and a simple firewall to combat it by blocking incoming packets – ZoneAlarm. We will stimulate an environment where a single attacker is attacking you via your ip address. We assume that both attacker and victim are connected to the internet.

Requirements:
The lab uses the Windows XP operating system running on VMWare Workstation along with hash creation software.

This lab archive contains code that is considered malicious by most antivirus applications. It is strongly recommended that you store this file in an isolated test system away from any production environments.
