Security testing with SecureCQ

Security challenges
• CQ exposes a lot of data
– Sling itself is a RESTful HTTP XML/JSON (or WebDAV) interface
to JCR
– CQ has additional features, available using appropriate
selector, GET parameter, path, eg.:
• .feed selector
• ?debug=layout
• /libs/shindig/proxy?url=http://www.cqcon.eu in CQ 5.4
• All that is enabled by default
• For administrator each feature is a potential security flaw
• Administrator needs to know all of that
• Security checklists and blog posts come in handy
• SecureCQ – automated tool based on security checklists
