The browserrecon project is doing some research in the field of web client fingerprinting. The goal is the highly accurate identification of given web browser implementations. This became important within professional vulnerability analysis (e.g. drive-by pharming and phishing). Besides the discussion of different approaches and the documentation of gathered results also an implementation for automated analysis is provided. This software shall improve the easyness and efficiency of this kind of enumeration. Traditional approaches known from http fingerprinting (e.g. header-order) are used. However, many other analysis techniques were introduced to increase the possibilities of accurate web client fingerprinting. Some basics of application fingerprinting were already discussed in the book Die Kunst des Penetration Testing (Chapter 9.3, HTTP-Fingerprinting, pp. 530-550). |
