  1. 2 Explore Real World Transaction Usage • Do programmers use

    transactions correctly? • This paper: 22 new critical vulnerabilities due to incorrect transaction usage – Corrupt store inventory, overspend giftcards, steal items • 50% of eCommerce sites (2M+) at risk

  7. 14 “By sending thousands of simultaneous requests, the attacker was

    able to ‘move’ coins from one user account to another until the sending account was overdrawn, before balances were updated.”
  8. 15 What's Happening? • Race condition – application exhibits behavior

    under concurrent execution not possible under serial execution • Can we exploit these behaviors? • Yes! We call this exploitation of non- serializable API behavior an ACIDRain attack
  9. 16 Overview • Problem setup • New method for detecting

    latent potential for non-serializable behavior • Evaluation – analysis of 12 eCommerce platforms

  43. 50 Two Sources of Vulnerabilities • Databases providing weak isolation

    may exhibit non-serializable behavior def checkVoucher(code): beginTxn() usage = readUsage(code) if (usage == 0): markUsed(code) commit() def checkVoucher(code): usage = readUsage(code) if (usage == 0): markUsed(code) • Programmers may code transactions incorrectly

  45. 52 Analysis Challenges • Want to analyze web applications written

    in multiple languages and frameworks • Anomalies only occur under concurrent execution, but website activity is often serial

    from database Build compact representation of history (abstract history graph) Search abstract history for cycles to generate possible anomalous API calls 1. 2. a 3.

  58. 71 Completeness Guarantees • Completeness: if there is a potential

    anomalous execution, this approach will find it • Soundness: discussion in paper Thm: Given a set of API calls, there exists an anomalous execution of the API calls if and only if there is a cycle in the abstract history.
  59. 72 Limitations • Does not take into account user level

    (i.e., "feral" [Bailis et al. 2015]) concurrency control def checkVoucher(code): beginTxn() usage = readUsage(code) if (usage == 0): markUsed(code) commit()

    level (Feral) invariants in Ruby on Rails applications • [Jorwekar et al. 2007] Provide analysis methods for detecting potential anomalies in transaction programs for Snapshot Isolation • [Fekete et al. 2009] Quantify Read Committed and Snapshot Isolation anomalies • Our focus is on any non-serializable behavior in API based web applications as observed in practice
