Secure CGI Scripting

Randal L. Schwartz, Stonehenge Consulting

Track: Perl - Bless ()
Date: Wednesday, July 19
Time: 3:30pm - 4:15pm
Location: Bonzai II-III

Almost anyone can run your CGI script by simply accessing it with a web browser. They can send any data they like despite your finely tuned HTML form or Javascript validity checking. If you aren't already worried, this course will show you that you should be and what to do about it. This course will cover the basics of CGI script security measures including basic programming strategy and Perl-specific techniques. Some general server features are discussed, although this is a platform-independent course. General knowledge of Perl programming and CGI scripting is assumed.
