Node Goat project Tools
nodeJS introduction JavaScript in the backend Built on
Chrome´s Javascript runtime(V8) NodeJs is based on event loop Designed to be asynchronous Single Thread Concurrent requests.

NPM modules install
Npm security packages Helmet express-session / cookie-session

Helmet module
Check headers security http://cyh.herokuapp.com/cyh https://securityheaders.io/
Express versions https://www.shodan.io/search?query=express
Disable x-powered-by Avoid framework fingerprinting
Disable x-powered-by Use Helmet and use “hide-powered-by” plugin
Sessions management https://www.npmjs.com/package/cookie-session secure httpOnly domain
path expires
httpOnly & secure:true
Delete cookies from cache browser // Set cache control header
to eliminate cookies from cache app.use(function (req, res, next) { res.header('Cache-Control', 'no-cache="Set-Cookie, Set-Cookie2"'); next(); });
XSS attacks An attacker can exploit XSS vulnerability to:
Steal session cookies/Sesion hijacking Redirect user to malicious sites Defacing and content manipulation Cross Site Request forgery
https://www.npmjs.com/package/csurf
CSRF <form action="/process" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="_csrf" value="{{csrfToken}}"> <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form> app.use(function (request, response, next) { response.locals.csrftoken = request.csrfToken(); next(); });
CSRF
Filter/sanitize user input Avoid XSS attacks https://www.npmjs.com/package/sanitizer
Module express-validator https://www.npmjs.com/package/express-validator
Validator

Validator with reg exp
Regular expressions https://www.npmjs.com/package/safe-regex Detect vulnerable regular expressions that
can cause DoS
NodeJS Crypto http://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html Use require(‘crypto’) to access this
module The crypto module requires OpenSSL require("crypto") .createHash("sha1") //algorithm .update(“cOdEmOtiOn") //text .digest("hex"); //hexadecimal result

Redirect all traffic to https and a secure port
Building a secure HTTPS server
Building a secure HTTPS server var helmet = require("helmet"); var
ms = require("ms"); app.use(helmet.hsts({ maxAge: ms("1 year"), includeSubdomains: true })); Send hsts header for all requests
