Qualys Inc., a provider of on demand IT security risk and compliance management solutions, released BlindElephant, an open source web application fingerprinting engine that identifies application and plugin versions via static files. In conjunction with this release, research that describes results from large-scale tests of the tool and shows that many well-known web applications are running out of date software. There are many common web applications used for many purposes, such as blogging, forums, e-commerce, database management, email and a myriad of others. By their nature, these applications present special security challenges, and as vulnerabilities are increasingly discovered, it is important to have a reliable way to detect which applications and plugins are present at a site, and if they are running outdated versions. BlindElephant utilizes a new approach that relies on hashes of static resource files within the application to infer a version number. BlindElephant was designed for: Minimal human effort to support new versions/apps; Resistance to hardening (banner removal); Accuracy to reduce false positive and false negative rates; Reuses the same code for all supported applications; Speed and scalability for use on a large number of applications; as well as low resource usage. For each application that the tool will support, BlindElephant consumes a number of version directories. All files and directories are processed, and a hash is computed for each file. This hash is stored in a temporary table, along with the path and version of the application it came from. Accuracy of the tool was demonstrated by a large-scale survey on Internet-visible hosts. The results of the survey include information on which currently supported web applications are most commonly used and the distribution of versions. The survey focused on some of the most popular open source applications including: Drupal, Joomla!, Mediawiki, Moodle, MovableType, phpBB, phpMyAdmin, SPIP, and Wordpress. http://blindelephant.sourceforge.net/ http://www.qualys.com/
