Security - Secure To Store An ID In A Control ID?
Apr 22, 2010
I'm auto-generating a form in my ASP.NET page. This is already tested and working. I want to know if:If there are any security problems with storing the database ID as part of my controls ID? I can see think of 2 issues: the id will be visible in page source (not really important in this case), and the possibility someone could change the name of the control somehow? This second possibility is more serious. Is this a potential problem and how to void it?If there would be a better preferred way to associate a unique data with any type of control? Is it possible to store a custom item in the viewstate for the control?

I have created an asp.net site with anonymous access turned off. Its for an internal (intranet) system which uses User.Identity.Name.ToString() to get the users login windows ID and then displays some records from a datagrid depending on their login ID. Is this secure? Also i am struggling to workout how best to store the result of User.Identity.Name.ToString() as I am not keen on storing it in a hidden text field and would rather not call it all the time unless this is the best way?

I have a custom mini login user control that I have embedded in the top of my website which shows on every page. These pages are non-secure HTTP://. I would like to avoid having to redirect the user to a HTTPS page to perform the login but I definitely don't want to send login credentials to the server in plain text.
I am trying find a method to send the user's login credentials encrypted via https from a non-secure (http) page.
I tried to set the postbackurl for the login button to itself but in https, but the user's input is not retained and the buttonLogin_click is not fired when I set the button postbackurl property. My ASP.net web application is VB.Net framework 4.0
I am assuming this can be done because I see lots of websites where login fields are on available on every page and they are running http and I can believe they are not encrypting the login credentials.

I'm creating a ASP.NET/SQL Server 2005 Express app which requires users to upload supporting attachment or documents in .docx and .pdf format. The web server is IIS 6/Win 2003. I'm trying to come up with a good way of securing these documents so anonynous users cannot see them and creating a separate Windows login for every user is not an option. SQL Server Express does not have blob data types. I'm storing each user's authentication information in the SQL database and not really using forms authentication.

I'm building a forgot password feature for my first secure backend.
I want to email a url containing an encrypted parameter to the user which will lead them to a password reset form that can only be accessed via the url with the encrypted parameter.
But what if the email gets intercepted?? then anyone who intercepts it will have the link to the reset page.
Is there a way I can send a secure email? I know nothing about email really. Is it even possible to send a secure email? Can I encrypt the email, will that help? But if it is encrypted then how does the recipient read it?

From what i know Random() is initialize to the current time. If two connections hit during the same second i should get the same two random numbers? With a large site that can be likely. Locking is bad so how should i solve it? note: the number is used for the session id.
-edit- i am stuck using a long. It feels wrong to shorten a 128bit GUID

In my environment, we use Active Directory as our password repository. I'm writing an app that uses the users windows session (windows auth) to authenticate the user. This is working well, but I need to provide a way for users to log in as a different user. I setup a web form to accept a username and password. My question is this, I need a secure way to validate the user's credentials against AD. I cant have the credentials passed as clear text. Ive come across the impersonate user functions, but i'm leary because you have to pass a clear text password into the password field. I know I could also use LDAP, but without a certificate, I know plain LDAP is relatively insecure. Can someone point me in the right direction of a more secure solution to query AD with the credentials?

I wish to do a simple and secure login form, for which I have seen tutorials keeping login information and roles set through the ASP.Net WebSite Administration Tool.
Is there any secure way to do a login page without using WSAT at all. provide me good tutorial links for creating a custom login form, having the capability of redirecting to login page if user is not authorized etc.
I don't wish to use the WebSite Administration Tool.

I'm trying to write a small application to collect(Scrape) one piece of data from a web site. I would like to be able to simply run the app and it will open the page, find the one piece of data and display it. So far so good...my problem is that the web site is a secure site, meaning I have to provide a user name and password. I've searched all over the web, found many discussions but have yet to find anything that provides specifics on how to accomplish this. I understand a little bit about tokens etc, but I'm really looking for a detailed description of how to do this. Please feel free to direct me to a different forum if I'm in the wrong place.

At the moment i,m working at a websit (ASP.net 3.5). I have build the project and till my surprise it is possible to reverse engineering the created dll's to the code (with Red Gate's .NET Reflector).
I have found several tools like Xheo and dotfuscator, but does there realy protected the created dll's ?? Does Microsoft have build a method to secure this ?? If this is not possible everybody can steal your code....
I have took a lot of time reading about this article, but is there a method or tool to make this secure?

I have read that the best way to secure images from being access would be to place them into a database rather than into a file system or virtual directory. Is this correct? I am creating a site that needs to have the images the user upload be secure as possible. I initially programmed the images to be uploaded to a database then I reprogram the site to have them store in to a file system/virtual directory. I'm still up in the air in terms of which one to use. Again, security is my primary concern.
