Re: [Wicket-user] Prevent Brute Force and the like
Another option is to lower the throughput (number of login requests handled per minute) for that IP address. In this case you should probably use Wicket 2 to optimize session usage. Erik.

Re: [Wicket-user] Prevent Brute Force and the like
Hello Johannes, that's a good topic you've got here... I agree to Korbinian that locking out IPs is a bad idea. One could extend that to the combination of username/IP, but that could be worked around with a more sofisticated script. What do you think about logging false logins on a per-user basis, and delay the response after the first false attempt by a couple of seconds until another valid login for that user happened? I think the Linux shell login works like that. Or, one could lock an account completely after say three false attempts, and send an email to the user with a link to unlock it again. .rue Johannes Fahrenkrug schrieb: Hi!

Re: [Wicket-user] Prevent Brute Force and the like
I guess that depends... I think you have to let the webapplication handle it if you want to prevent brute force dictionary attacks on the login page only. Especially if you want to do this on a per username basis or even use captchas (thanks Pierre-Yves).

Re: [Wicket-user] Prevent Brute Force and the like
I usually use captcha and a cache implementation(e.g. oscache, jboss cache) to save erroneous login attempts until user hits a configured maximum number of attempts. If maximum is achieved the user is blocked for a certain period of time.

Hello Rüdiger, What do you think about logging false logins on a per-user basis, and delay the response after the first false attempt by a couple of seconds until another valid login for that user happened? I think the Linux shell login works like that. That's not a bad idea... that would mean delaying a response for a second or two _every time_ a false login happens... That would be a rather simple but yet effective solution, too: It would render brute force useless and behave quite similar to the Linux shell login you mentioned Or, one could lock an account completely after say three false attempts, and send an email to the user with a link to unlock it again. That's also an option... but I think that's mostly used for very high risk and high security applications like banking and stuff... I think GMail uses a captcha after a few (or even just one) false login... that would be extremely effective against scripts. - Johannes .rue Johannes Fahrenkrug schrieb: Hi!

Hi!
I'd like to prevent brute force attacks on the login page of my
wicket application. What would be the best approach?
This is what
I'm thinking about doing: Record when the last request for the
loginpage from a certain IP came in and only handle the
request when
at least a second or two have passed.
This would have to be done application wide because when
an attacker
uses a tool like cURL a new session is created with
each request.
So what would you guys suggest?

Re: [Wicket-user] Prevent Brute Force and the like
Disadvantage is that the server will keep the request processing thread occupied during the waiting period. A brute force attach that fires multiple requests simultaneously will not be stopped by this and will bring the server to its knees even more quickly. So Johan was right, you should not do this in the web application. Now if you start using AsyncWeb it would be quite another story of course... Regards, Erik. Johannes Fahrenkrug schreef: That's not a bad idea... that would mean delaying a response for a second or two _every time_ a false login happens... That would be a rather simple but yet effective solution, too: It would render brute force useless and behave quite similar to the Linux shell login you mentioned -- Erik van Oosten http://www.day-to-day-stuff.blogspot.com/ - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Re: [Wicket-user] Prevent Brute Force and the like
Erik, Disadvantage is that the server will keep the request processing thread occupied during the waiting period. A brute force attach that fires multiple requests simultaneously will not be stopped by this and will bring the server to its knees even more quickly. So Johan was right, you should not do this in the web application. That is true. But how can I let the server software handle this if I want specific behavior only with a certain page of the web application? Or are you suggesting to let the server software handle all the flooding for all the pages of the webapplication (i.e. restricting how many requests are processed/handles per second) and to let the webapplication handle the specific case of false logins, not caring about how many REQUESTS came in, just how many false ATTEMPTS came in? That sounds like it would make a lot of sense Now if you start using AsyncWeb it would be quite another story of course... Hmmm, that does look very promising! - Johannes Regards, Erik.
