Challenge Categories

The vulnerabilities found in the OWASP Juice Shop are categorized into several different classes. Most of them cover different risk or vulnerability types from well-known lists or documents, such as OWASP Top 10, OWASP ASVS, OWASP Automated Threat Handbook and OWASP API Security Top 10 or MITRE’s Common Weakness Enumeration.

Challenge Tags

Tags do not represent vulnerability categories but serve as additional meta information for challenges. They mark certain commonalities or special types of challenges - like those lacking seriousness or ones that probably need some scripting/automation etc.

Hacking Instructor Tutorials

Click on a link in the table below to launch a step-by-step tutorial for that particular challenge on our public https://demo.owasp-juice.shop instance. If you are entirely new to the Juice Shop, we recommend doing them in the listed order. With the (optional) Tutorial Mode you can even enforce that the 12 tutorial challenges have to be performed gradually in order to unlock the other 95 challenges.

Coding Challenges

For 27 challenges an additional coding challenge is available. In their “Find It” phase they teach spotting vulnerabilities in the actual codebase of the Juice Shop. In the “Fix It” phase the user then chooses the most appropriate fix from a list. Solve any of the hacking challenges below to enable a button on the Score Board that launches the corresponding coding challenge:

Mitigation Links

For many solved challenges links to mitigation techniques are presented on the Score Board by offering a link to a corresponding OWASP Cheat Sheet explaining how to avoid that kind of vulnerability in the first place. The following cheat sheets are referred to by OWASP Juice Shop as mitigation links:

• Authentication Cheat Sheet
• Authorization Cheat Sheet
• Choosing and Using Security Questions Cheat Sheet

Agenda

Talk Descriptions

Juice Shop Introduction

In the brief session, you will learn all the basics of the OWASP Juice Shop project: Why it exists, what it can do, where you can get it from, and how to get it running! This session will make sure that newcomers and experts alike can enjoy and follow in the subsequent Juice Shop sessions!

Shake Logger XSS Demo

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) demonstrations in secure coding training often rely on simple alert boxes, which can understate the true risks of this vulnerability. This session will show you how to effectively illustrate the damage potential of XSS to both developers and non-technical audiences, providing a more realistic and compelling demonstration of its impact.

Multi Juicer Introduction

Running CTFs and security trainings with OWASP Juice Shop is usually quite tricky, as Juice Shop isn’t intended to be used by multiple users at the same time. MultiJuicer is a Juice Shop sub-project designed to make running trainings and CTFs with Juice Shop as easy and effective as possible. This session introduces the project and provides tips and tricks for setting it up in various cloud or on-prem environments.

Just-for-fun-CTF w/ Multi Juicer

In this session, we will use MultiJuicer to host a short CTF on a live MultiJuicer environment to demonstrate how it can be used for trainings and CTFs. This will be a hands-on session, so be sure to bring your laptops!

Application Security Program Experiences / Ask Anything

Brook and Timo will talk about their experiences with Application Security Programs. Everyone is invited to join the conversation. Please bring your questions!

DSOMM Live Assessment for the OWASP Juice Shop Application

In this session, Timo will perform an assessment of the OWASP Juice Shop by interviewing other Juice Shop Core Members by filling out custom yaml files. Learn how to lead a DSOMM interview and at the same time fill out the DSOMM yaml files to document the assessment.

Reach your Dynamic Depth with OWASP secureCodeBox

Implementing automated scanning for applications within an organization presents a complex task due to various factors. While configuring the scans themselves poses a challenge (DSOMM subdimension “Dynamic depth for applications”), interpreting and utilizing the resulting data in a meaningful way is often even more challenging (DSOMM subdimension “Consolidation”).

This presentation aims to provide guidance on how to utilize the OWASP secureCodeBox project as a tool to automate dynamic scans, leveraging tools such as ZAP, Nuclei, and SSLyze. Specifically, it will demonstrate how to either schedule regular scans or automatically create them via the AutoDiscovery feature of the secureCodeBox. The talk will also highlight the ability to utilize the secureCodeBox for automated creation of scans on Kubernetes deployments.

Furthermore, this presentation will showcase how the secureCodeBox can be used to automatically upload and organize scan results to OWASP DefectDojo, streamlining your security workflow.

Workshop: Application and Vulnerability maturity Model (VMM) - DSOMM Map

Organizations face an ever-increasing risk of cyberattacks and data breaches. Vulnerabilities are getting discovered faster than ever, with a 34% YoY increase of vulnerability discovery. Vulnerabilities are often tackled as they come from security scanners, leading to burnout of security professionals, with 50% of security engineers considering changing their profession entirely. This workshop explores the vulnerability management process that applies to application, cloud, and infrastructure security.

To mitigate these risks, vulnerability management and triage have become essential components of an effective cybersecurity program. Vulnerability triage, in particular, plays a critical role in identifying, prioritizing, and remediating vulnerabilities to minimize the organization’s attack surface across applications, cloud and infrastructure. However, the process of vulnerability triage is not a one-size-fits-all approach and requires a maturity model that reflects the organization’s current state of readiness. In this workshop, you will explore the evolution of vulnerability management and triage process maturity and how organizations can enhance their capabilities to manage and mitigate cybersecurity risks effectively.

Why we created the vulnerability management process? We created the vulnerability maturity model to provide a quick and easy assessment method to define where you are in the vulnerability assessment process from triage. The VMM is mapped back to both SAMM, and DSOMM.
