Wallarm introduced its ongoing Open Source API Firewall project to the world at the recently concluded Blackhat Asia 2024 conference in Singapore. The open-source API Firewall by Wallarm is a free, lightweight API Firewall designed to protect REST and GraphQL API endpoints across cloud-native environments using API schema validation. By relying on a positive security model, our API Firewall only allows calls that match a predefined API specification while rejecting everything else.

On Friday April 12, Palo Alto disclosed that some versions of PAN-OS are not only vulnerable to remote code execution, but that the vulnerability has been actively exploited to install backdoors on Palo Alto firewalls. A patch is expected to be available on April 14th. The advisory from Palo Alto is here. Palo Alto has marked this vulnerability as critical and NVD has scored it a 10.0 with CVSSv3. Wallarm currently detects attacks against this vulnerability with no additional configuration required.

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) have proliferated widely, which increases their susceptibility to various vulnerabilities. In the realm of web applications, prime examples that stand out are SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) and Representational State Transfer (REST) APIs. Due to their inherent complexity and the dynamic nature of software ecosystems, common vulnerabilities include inadequate authentication mechanisms and injection attacks such as SQL injection or cross-site scripting (XSS).

“If you put a key under the mat for the cops, a burglar can find it, too. Criminals are using every technology tool at their disposal to hack into people’s accounts. If they know there’s a key hidden somewhere, they won’t stop until they find it.” - Tim Cook, CEO of Apple Inc. The entire digital landscape has evolved into a behemoth of sorts as the number of online attacks targeting individuals, businesses, and governments has risen steadily.

Since 1991, Web Application Firewall, commonly referred to as WAF, has become one of the most common application security technologies available on the market. Since the last century, WAFs have evolved by incorporating the cloud and using Machine Learning instead of RegExp. Currently, few technologies, such as NG-WAF, RASP, WAAP, and a few others, have internal WAF capabilities, which prevent web applications and API threats.

Government bodies are clamping down heavily on institutions and organizations that handle sensitive customer data. For APIs, tokens are used to authenticate users. We live in an era dominated by cloud-native and cloud-first solutions that rely on these services to provide dynamic data storage capabilities and overall computing capabilities for more accurate and actionable insights.

Attack detection is critical for most security solutions, whether we are talking about a load balancer-based (NIDS, WAF), host-based or in-application solutions (HIDS, RASP). Interestingly, regardless of the differences in architecture and data flow, most solutions use similar detection principles and techniques. We will explore how the detection architecture evolved over time and how the new generation of detection logic, such as the architecture implemented by Wallarm, is principally different from that of the legacy solutions.
