OWASP’s herd of goat

2011-09-30T21:50:00.001+06:00

Sorry for weird funny title. Every security folks know about OWASP Web goat project, one most successful project of OWASP.

WebGoat is a deliberately insecure J2EE web application maintained by OWASP designed to teach web application security lessons. In each lesson, users must demonstrate their understanding of a security issue by exploiting a real vulnerability in the WebGoat application.

Just copy following quote from OWASP wiki why the name is WebGoat.

Why the name "WebGoat"? Developers should not feel bad about not knowing security. Even the best programmers make security errors. What they need is a scapegoat, right? Just blame it on the 'Goat!

But there are also other OWASP goat(s) project available less people know about them.

OWASP .NET Goat

One of them is OWASP .NET Goat. Will be found is Codeplex.OWASP .NET Goat is a webgoat style security learning application written in C#.

And another Goat join recently is GoatDroid. owasp-goatdroid is also open source goat found in here is a a fully functional training environment for exploring Android mobile application security.

Well what about iPhone, Yes OWASP owasp-igoat is for apple iPhone.This OWASP iGoat project is a security learning tool for iOS developers to learn about security weaknesses in iOS -- by breaking things as well as fixing them.

OWASP-iGoat project home.

Happy learning… if anyone know other goat please write on comment.

Web Application Analysis With Owasp Hatkit

2011-09-27T21:58:00.001+06:00

Yet another proxy to analyses web application. We already have WebScarab,burp,paros,ratproxy,OWASP zap proxy,fiddler so many now another one OWASP Hatkit which is released in defcon 19. The main feature that may capture your attention is it has a database to store all recoded data that’s helps further analysis. Hatkit use MongoDB where parse data store in as JSON document. So you can use MongoDB advanced querying facilities and even can use other tools to view and analyze data.

Now how do you configure it in your favorite backtrack, I’m try it in backtrack5r1. First you need to install MongoDB . if you install synaptic you should found MongoDB by search in default repo. obviously there should other way to do it but I’m take simplex options.

Or just $sudo apt-get install mongodb

Next download Hatkit it self from from here. direct link hatkit_proxy-0.6.1.zip

just extract it in /opt
#ls
#hatkit_proxy.jar hatkit_proxy.sh lib LICENSE.txt processors README
#java -jar hatkit_proxy.jar

hatkit has web scrapper converter you need to locate its install path

Well so to analyze data there is another project available Owasp Hatkit Datafiddler project. So with help of this is a tool basically you do performing data analysis of data in a MongoDB, particularly Http traffic.

This tool can be download from here, Direct link hatkit_datafiddler-0.6.0.zip.

$ unzip hatkit_datafiddler-0.6.0.zip
$ cd hatkit_datafiddler-0.6.0/
$ python datafiddler.py

you may got dependency error of python mongoDB if you are not install it before

pymongo : Python drivers for MongoDB

there are different way of installing pymongo but I did install it from source.Installing pymongo python driver for mongodb from source is easy

git clone https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-python-driver.git

python setup.py install

$ python datafiddler.py

My first look feeling is still this tool need some UI improvement and need to a bit user friendly. I will try to update this post after more work with this tool. And hope this tool will keep updated.

Running dradis server in any port and ip address on backtrack 5

2011-08-29T13:04:00.001+06:00

By default dradis server run on localhost. To run it in any interface following helps available in http://dradisframework.org/FAQ.html#q4. But its not works for me.

By default the server starts in 127.0.0.1:3004. How can I make it listen on a different interface/port number?

Port number can be changed using the -p parameter. For instance to listen on port 80:
rails server -p 80

The interface can be changed using the -b parameter. To listen on ALL (dangerous!) interfaces do:
rails server -b 0.0.0.0

I’m try couple of way and can’t make it work. get following error

ruby ./script/rails server -b 0.0.0.0 -p 3004
./script/rails:5:in `require': no such file to load -- rails/commands/server (LoadError)
from ./script/rails:5:in `<main>'

After a long time search internet i found a fix.I’m try

$./start.sh –h

But its not work, then a fixed has been found there git hut source.You just need to modify start.sh following way

-bundle exec rails server webrick

+bundle exec rails server webrick $*

After that you have $./start.sh –h cool help.

Just type ./start.sh –b <ip> will work.

Hope this save some one time.

Dradis Server in backtrack 5

2011-08-24T20:07:00.001+06:00

Dradis is an open source framework that basically design for information sharing when a group of people do vulnerability assessment in a team.

In back track 5 it comes by default. But after start the server and you hit the url http://127.0.0.1:3004/ you may got following error. Just switch to https (https://127.0.0.1:3004/) will solved the problem.

ERROR OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_accept returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read client hello A: http request
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.2/openssl/ssl-internal.rb:164:in `accept'

It look like following

The recent dradis has built is import feature form a lots well known security tool scan output like nmap,w3af,openvas,burp and many others. Its also has reporting feature.Have a look on it http://dradisframework.org/.

Thought its specially design for security assessment team but any other team like software QA and other people working in a team can use it for effective information sharing.

Find out CSRF in your application using OWASP's CSRFTester tool

2011-08-20T14:39:00.002+06:00

Firstly if you are not familiar with CSRF(Cross site request forgery), in short it’s a attack which force the end user to submit a request to a web application in which he or she already authenticated. For example now a days we are using multiple tabs in our browser, lets say you are login to facebook in one tab and the browser has session that already authenticated and now you are visited a attacker site. The attacker can trick you into loading information from or submitting information to facebook that you are already authenticated.

Let me give more example in depth how it work

let say Victim logon to bank.com

what actually happen in http request is shown bellow

Now some web site it not really care about the POST or GET,Attacker can convert the POST request to a get request by following manner

look, an image tag added a html page that to basically a GET request to a server. ahaaa what happen this malicious img tag come from another site and request to your bank site. Server really don’t care(if there is no CSRF protection) because its come from your browser that already authenticated. So scary right. But you can say hai, this is not my fault or my application fault this is how the http work! True, this is why this is a A 'Sleeping Giant'.

To learn more about CSRF I recommend go here.

No how do you can test quickly is your application has CSRF? OWASP has a tool name CSRFTester can be download from here. Its open source and you can get the source from http://code.google.com/p/owaspcsrftester/. You need to install JRE to run this application that can be download from http://www.java.com/en/download/

Well,how to use the tool, The tool is simple when you run the tool its look like following

CSRFTester tool by default listening like a proxy in 8008. At the time blog is written there is no way I found to change this port. So you have to make sure your 8080 port is free and not already used by any other application in your pc. The first job is setting your browser so all request go threw this proxy 8008. In internet explorer it can be done from lan setting go Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings

But I’m prefer to do this short of things in firefox. Firefox has a feature to run multiple instance with complete deferent profile. Normally I do use multiple profile for different task. if you go run and use “firefox -p -no-remote” command you have user choose option. This command help you to run multiple instance of firefox at a time with complete different session.

Now you can do set proxy from Tools>Options> Advanced>Network>settings

But most of the time you may need to switch between multiple proxy, for this I’m prefer mutiproxyswitch firefox add on download link https://github.com/downloads/jmccrohan/Multiproxy-Switch/multiproxy_switch.xpi

Ok, after configuring proxy in your browser you can recode any number of request by CSRFTEST tool and it can generate report in different format forms,iframe,img,XHR and link. Normally you should recode a business functionality that may need done by multiple request to server. Once you generate report open a new browser instance, authenticate as another user with access to the same business function(s) of your testing site, and have then launch the newly created HTML report file. If the action effect after viewing the file in the same browser window that was used to authenticate the the victim, then that particular function is vulnerable to CSRF(cross-site request forgery).

Ok for defense against this attack check Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Prevention Cheat Sheet.

Be safe…

Acer Aspire One 751h 1366x768 resolution in ubuntu 9.04

2009-07-26T17:25:00.005+07:00

i'm reading few post ,post2 and try this...

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-mobile.list
with this in it
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mobile/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

Then,
apt-get update
apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-psb

No luck on backtrack4 pre release but worked in ununtu 9.04 after live update.
I'm install xserver-xorg-video-psb just after install ubuntu 9.04 from USB then get some error but after update ubuntu its start working...
So if you install ubuntu from cd or usb update it fist then install xserver-xorg-video-psb else it may not work.

How to metasploit with autopwn on backtrack 4

2009-07-21T17:08:00.000+07:00

I'm install metasploit on ubuntu 8.04 and can did autopwn by following this post. Recently i'm play with backtrack 4 prerelease and surprised with followiing error white try to load db_postgres command on msfconsole. it shows
[-]
[-] The functionality previously provided by this plugin has been
[-] integrated into the core command set. Use the new 'db_driver'
[-] command to use a database driver other than sqlite3 (which
[-] is now the default). All of the old commands are the same.
[-]
[-] Error while running command load: Deprecated plugin

then after some research i'm found things are become easer then before .

now you have to do only

./msfconsole
~~load db_postgres~~ db_driver
db_create test
db_nmap IP ADDRESS TO TEST -p 445
all other command also remain same...
db_autopwn -t -p -e -s -b
sessions -l

happy pentest....

WCF not following default proxy settings

2009-06-30T16:37:00.001+07:00

One of my xbap project I was creating wcf proxy using channel factory but all wcf call fail on a machine(actually all pc under a network) that only connect Internet through a proxy server. then after detail investigation I'm discover that if you are create wcf proxy using channel factory its ignore the configuration useDefaultWebProxy="true" and try to connect with Internet by pass the proxy server. I'm found it by monitor raw packet using YATT.

But in case of auto generated proxy its simply working fine. if you user useDefaultWebProxy="true" in your binding its not by pass proxy server.

to full proof that your apps following the default proxy settings on a machine you can add following code at start up

public App()
{

WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy = System.Net.WebRequest.GetSystemWebProxy();

//to get default proxy settings
WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;

           try
           {
               WebRequest request = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(
               "http://www.labla.com/lablabla.html");
               request.GetResponse();
           }
           catch (Exception ex)
           {

               if (ex.Message.Equals("The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required."))
               {
                   //Proxy Authentication Required.
                   //WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(c.UserName, c.Pass);
               }
             }

}

hope this help…

How to fix WCF Error The remote server returned an unexpected response: (417) Expectation failed.

2009-06-30T16:04:00.001+07:00

Few day’s ago one of our project(using wpf and wcf ) going live and we are start getting lots of weird error one of is 417 the remote server return unexpected response.

after some investigation and we found its only occur when client are behind a proxy in our case its squid(http://www.squid-cache.org/) and has a configuration like following in squid.conf

#This option makes Squid ignore any Expect: 100-continue header present
#in the request. Note: Enabling this is a HTTP protocol violation, but some #client may not handle it well..

#Default:
ignore_expect_100 off

we are solving this problem can be solved by changing squid configuration

ignore_expect_100 on

the following settings on the app.config also solved the problem

<system.net>

</settings>

</system.net>

</configuration>

but if you have control over your proxy server settings change that. if you do not have chance to change proxy settings and handle this with changing app.config may be facing problem upload large amount of file

for more information you can check this

Setting image source from code WPF

2009-01-05T12:53:00.001+06:00

In wpf you can set image source from xaml

<Image x:Name="imgCurentLogo"  HorizontalAlignment="Center"  Source="/ComponentName;component/Images/logo.png" ></Image>

As well as you can set image source from code

 Uri src = new Uri(@"/ComponentName;component/Images/logo.png", UriKind.Relative);
 BitmapImage img = new BitmapImage(src);
 imgCurentLogo.Source = img;

You can also create image source from a physical file

System.Drawing.Bitmap _image = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(_memorystream);
 imgCurentLogo.Source = GetBitmapSource(_image);

private System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapSource GetBitmapSource(System.Drawing.Bitmap _image)
        {
            System.Drawing.Bitmap bitmap = _image;
            System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapSource bitmapSource = System.Windows.Interop.Imaging.CreateBitmapSourceFromHBitmap(
                    bitmap.GetHbitmap(),

Bug in Flash player detectionkit provided by adobe (Flash player detection not working in windows/ie7)

2008-12-22T18:08:00.001+06:00

Adobe provided flash player detection kit has a bug in client-site detection

file AC_OETags.js

// Flash Player Version Detection - Rev 1.6
// Detect Client Browser type
// Copyright(c) 2005-2006 Adobe Macromedia Software, LLC. All rights reserved.
var isIE = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE") != -1) ? true : false;
var isWin = (navigator.appVersion.toLowerCase().indexOf("win") != -1) ? true : false;
var isOpera = (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Opera") != -1) ? true : false;

You need to change

var isWin = (navigator.platform.toLowerCase().indexOf("win") != -1) ? true : false;

This bug also in adobe flex builder 2 AC_OETags.js file.

hope this help.

Troubleshooting Wpf Xbap Error : Application Deployment Error

2008-11-22T12:33:00.001+06:00

If you are deploy your application using click one some time you got "Application Deployment Error the application can not be deployed. Contract the application publisher for assistance."

There are several reason can happen so that the application can't deploy in client machine. I'm found few cases like

Reason 1.

Some time if Internet explorer(IE) crash the presentationhost.exe will not be close and it lock the files it use. then next time another presentationhost can't access necessary file for boot the xbap application. if you are view the log by clicking on "Open Error Log" you will may find following error details

PLATFORM VERSION INFO

APPLICATION SUMMARY
* Online only application.

ERROR SUMMARY
    Below is a summary of the errors, details of these errors are listed later in the log.
    * An exception occurred while downloading the application. Following failure messages were detected:
        + Exception occurred during store operation.
        + The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070020) lab lab la e huge log description........

To solve this error find out why the presentationhost.exe not die after you kill the IE(Internet explorer) is there any code you write on you application exit that got faulted or do you capture any resource that's not release for any reason. primarily you can kill presentationhost.exe by forced (manually). then try again you application it should deploy now.

Reason 2.

Another deployment error can be occur if you publish same application in several domain like http://lallabla.com and http://habhabla.com and by mistake you forgot to update build number while you publish. it may be also true for same domain also like your already install latest build and now you publish a new build with same build number with different assembly.

This type deployment error can solve easily by increasing build number and publishing again. And good practices is check "Automatically increment revision with each publish" from you project property. and never build with a disconnected solution from source safe or any other version control you use.

Reason 3.

TrustNotGrantedException comes if you deploy your application with full trust but client not have enough privilege to grant you required permission. Check my another post (How to run wpf/xbap in full trust mode ) about this issue

I can't solve it yet let you know when I can do it.

hope it will solve by using

good luck...

Tips

Worse way to solve deployment error is deleting previous application file from user cache. normally click once deployed file will cache here

root...:\Documents and Settings\..user..\Local Settings\Apps

you can clean it by manually or using mage tools come with .net framework sdk.Go vs command prompt and type "mage -cc" this will clear your previous cache.

Another tips is if deployment fail the error window comes with a support link.

You can configure this link from you application property window>>options

then set your Support Url.

hope this helps.

Got time out exception while calling java web service from wcf

2008-10-26T15:25:00.005+06:00

While i was trying to call java base webservice got time out exception. Later on i sloved that by stoping NagleAlgorithm.

ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = false;
ServicePointManager.UseNagleAlgorithm = false;

ServiceClient sc=new ServiceClient ();

UseNagleAlgorithm = false before creating your service endpoint client else its not working.

The Nagle algorithm is used to reduce network traffic by buffering small packets of data and transmitting them as a single packet. This process is also referred to as "nagling"; it is widely used because it reduces the number of packets transmitted and lowers the overhead per packet.

Detect the .NET Framework 3.5 sp1 from asp.net

2008-10-20T15:11:00.002+06:00

After installing NET Framework 3.5 sp1 from asp.net you will still get Request.Browser.ClrVersion.ToString() value is 3.5.21022 its not the latest sp1 version.

therefore better check from Request.Params["HTTP_USER_AGENT"] where you will get all info contain at
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform

So check your require version using following code

if (Request.Params["HTTP_USER_AGENT"].Contains("NET CLR 3.5.30729")==false)
hasDotNet = false;

Knowing when a WCF service in Fault state / Recover from fault state

2008-05-07T16:13:00.005+06:00

If you’re creating WCF dynamic proxy by using ChannelFactory your channel can become fault state then you have to create a new channel before next request. To know about fault state and Fault Exception check following blog post

http://dotnet.org.za/willy/archive/2006/12/19/WCF-FaultException-_2620_-why-use-it_3F00_.aspx

You can subscribe the ICommunicationObject faulted event and create the channel again. Here is the code

ChannelFactory<ICalculationService> CalculationServiceCF = null;

public ICalculationService CreateCalculationService()

{

EndpointAddress address = new EndpointAddress(…………..);

if (CalculationServiceCF == null)

CalculationServiceCF = new ChannelFactory<ICalculationService>(-------);

ICalculationService client = CalculationServiceCF.CreateChannel();

((ICommunicationObject)client).Faulted+= new EventHandler(ProxyServiceFactory_Faulted);

return client;

}

void ProxyServiceFactory_Faulted(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

((ICommunicationObject)sender).Abort();

if (sender is ICalculationService)

{

sender = CalculationServiceCF.CreateChannel();

}

Careful you will find ChannelFactory.Faulted event also. But do not try with this one.It will not fire when you channel become faulted.

How to run wpf/xbap in full trust mode

2008-05-04T17:06:00.014+06:00

Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) browser-hosted applications can be launched from the browser. You can deploy it by click once deployment and because of security reason xbap run on partial trust. Default client security settings should not run xbap in full trust. By changing client machine code group policy you can run xbap in full trust mode.

For more info click Windows Presentation Foundation Partial Trust Security.

How to manually change code group to make your site full trust

Go control panelàAdministrative ToolsàMicrosoft .NET Framework 2.0 Configuration Add expand runtime security policyàCode Groups.Add a new code group with following settings

This will make you site as full trust in for that client.For more info click Code Access Security

In real life it’s not possible to say your client to change his machine code group policy to overcome this you can give a patch that will create code group for you in client machine or you can make it totally encapsulate with help of activeX. Here is the code that will create code group.

namespace Environment{

[Guid("9E019B4B-C7EC-4951-AC6E-6E809940F753")]

public interface COM_Interface{

[DispId(1)]

void create(string siteName, string groupName);

[DispId(2)]

bool HasFullTrust(string groupName);

}

[Guid("EE985754-3E90-4e0c-81F6-5C2F00784524")]

[ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.AutoDual)]

public class CodeGroupCreator1: COM_Interface {

public void create(string siteName,string groupName){

try{const string userPolicyLevel = "Machine";

//// Locate the User policy level.

policyLevel level = null;

System.Collections.IEnumerator ph = System.Security.SecurityManager.PolicyHierarchy();

while(ph.MoveNext()){

level = (PolicyLevel)ph.Current;

if (level.Label == userPolicyLevel)break;

}

if(level.Label != userPolicyLevel)throw new ApplicationException("Could not find User policy level.");

IMembershipCondition membership =new UrlMembershipCondition(siteName);
UnionCodeGroup codeGroup = new UnionCodeGroup(membership,
new PolicyStatement(new PermissionSet(PermissionState.Unrestricted)));

codeGroup.Name = groupName;

codeGroup.PolicyStatement = new PolicyStatement(level.GetNamedPermissionSet("FullTrust"));

// Add the code group to the User policy's root node.

System.Collections.IEnumerator em = level.RootCodeGroup.Children.GetEnumerator();

bool alreadyHas = false;

while(em.MoveNext()){

if (((CodeGroup)em.Current).Name == groupName)alreadyHas = true;break;

}

if(alreadyHas == false){
level.RootCodeGroup.AddChild(codeGroup);

//Save the changes to the policy level.

System.Security.SecurityManager.SavePolicy();

}

}catch (Exception){}}

public bool HasFullTrust(string groupName){

bool alreadyHas = false;

try{

const string userPolicyLevel = "Machine";

////Locate the User policy level.

PolicyLevel level = null;

System.Collections.IEnumerator ph =System.Security.SecurityManager.PolicyHierarchy();

while (ph.MoveNext()){

level = (PolicyLevel)ph.Current;

if (level.Label == userPolicyLevel)break;

}

System.Collections.IEnumerator em = level.RootCodeGroup.Children.GetEnumerator();
while (em.MoveNext()){

if (((CodeGroup)em.Current).Name == groupName){alreadyHas = true;break; }}}catch{}return alreadyHas; }}}

This code can be deployed as ActiveX.For more info about Packaging ActiveX Controls click here.
After installing this code as ActiveX you can call it by java script and create code group

function CheckFullTrust(){

try{var x = new ActiveXObject("Environment.CodeGroupCreator1");

if(!x.HasFullTrust("MakeMeFulltrust")){x.create("http://lablalla/*","MakeMeFulltrust"); }}catch(e){window.location="Error.aspx";}}

The idea is you can first check is the client considering you site as full trust or not?? By java script, then you can load your xbap or make first your site full trust by calling ActiveX method from java script later load xbap.

WPF in web

2008-04-10T16:44:00.002+06:00

I’m recently working on a project where we come up with a
decision to use wpf in web. The main reason behind taking this decision is we
want to share some component already developed in desktop using wfp and our
company we have some suit of products always can be share some module both web
and desktop. Previously we need to develop a lots component with same feature
for web and desktop. Huhh no more redundant work should come up a common
platform. After some basic r&d we jump to develop some share module for
both desktop and web using wfp. We are smoothly going with wfp in desktop but
in each step in web we fall one by one problem (in bangle “minca chipa”).

I’m short out some problem that not too much context
specific and anybody want use wfp in web most frequently fall on those issues.
Here some of those

1. Hosting xbap on aspx pages.

We are decide to use some component are sheared both web and
desktop so we are choose hosting xbap inside aspx page rather then root
application is xbap though it’s possible to call aspx pages from xbap using
ifame.

Here is example how to html in xbap. Carefully looks on
source that’s a bit different in case of xbap.

But we don’t want to lose basic web programming model for
just using xbap also we has already implemented authentication and other
functionality using asp.net. If xbap become root application it will be nothing
but a smart client. So we hosting xbap inside aspx page using iframe

At the beginning we are expecting may be there must be some
way to communicate with java script from xbap and vise versa very basic web
developer expectation huhhh. And start getting disappointed from beginning
there is no way to communicate java script and xbap. Ohh noooo can we read at
least Query string and cookie from xbap?? Hmm yes we can

Here is code

//how to Query string from xbap

BrowserInteropHelper.Source.Query.ToString();

//cookie from xbap

Application.SetCookie(new Uri("http://nahid2.kaz.com.bd/servicedep/WpfBrowserApplication1.xbap"),
"Hellllo");

Application.GetCookie(new
Uri("http://nahid2.kaz.com.bd/servicedep/WpfBrowserApplication1.xbap");

Important things to say about Query string in you will get
the Iframe source as query string not from url you see in browser address bar
if your host using iframe.

Ok hosting is complete now we want to talk with server from
xbap. wcf obviously good option and get another problem while using wcf from
xbap

You can easily use basicHttpBinding binding but we need
session so we need wsHttpBinding but we are getting System.Web.Security
exception

And we find out the way how to call wcf with wsHttpBinding
we need to do reliable session off and security none. Here is the configuration

</binding>

</wsHttpBinding>

<endpoint
address="http://localhost/ServiceHost/Service.svc"

binding="wsHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="WsHttpBindingNoSecurity"

contract="Service.Service"
listenUriMode="Explicit" />

</service>

XML parsing using flex (Ignoring white space and newline)

2007-11-19T19:36:00.001+06:00

In flex if you create XMLDocument following way
var str:String="<"root"> <"node"><"/node">\n<"/root">"; //there will be no extra "
var doc:XMLDocument =new XMLDocument(str);
doc.ignoreWhite=true;

this will not ignore white space

what you have to do is
var str:String="<"root"> <"node"><"/node">\n<"/root">";//there will be no extra "
var doc:XMLDocument =new XMLDocument();
doc.ignoreWhite=true;
doc.parseXML(str);
this will actually ignore the white space and new line

Hello word WCF service project ( service.Metadata publishing for this service is currently disabled. )

2007-01-25T07:47:00.000+06:00

Today I’m just trying to experiment with WCF service project. While I trying to add service reference its show following error

“This is a Windows© Communication Foundation service.Metadata publishing for this service is currently disabled.”

I solved it by changing web.config of service project following tag

Add “<“serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" /> tag

“<“serviceBehaviors>
“<“behavior name="returnFaults" >
“<“serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
“<“/behavior>
“<“/serviceBehaviors>

And two atribute(binding="mexHttpBinding" address="mex") in
“<“endpoint contract="IMyService" binding="mexHttpBinding" address="mex"/>

Default Web.config

“<“?xml version="1.0"?>

“<“configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
“<“system.serviceModel>
“<“services>
“<“!-- Before deployment, you should remove the returnFaults behavior configuration to avoid disclosing information in exception messages -->
“<“service name="MyService" behaviorConfiguration="returnFaults">
“<“endpoint contract="IMyService" binding="wsHttpBinding"/>
“<“/service>
“<“/services>
“<“behaviors>
“<“serviceBehaviors>
“<“behavior name="returnFaults" >
“<“serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
“<“/behavior>
“<“/serviceBehaviors>
“<“/behaviors>
“<“/system.serviceModel>

“<“system.web>
“<“compilation debug="true"/>
“<“/system.web>

“<“/configuration>

Changed Web.config

“<“?xml version="1.0"?>

“<“configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
“<“system.serviceModel>
“<“services>
“<“!-- Before deployment, you should remove the returnFaults behavior configuration to avoid disclosing information in exception messages -->
“<“service name="MyService" behaviorConfiguration="returnFaults">
“<“endpoint contract="IMyService" binding="mexHttpBinding" address="mex"/>
“<“/service>
“<“/services>
“<“behaviors>
“<“serviceBehaviors>
“<“behavior name="returnFaults" >
“<“serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
“<“serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />

“<“/behavior>
“<“/serviceBehaviors>
“<“/behaviors>
“<“/system.serviceModel>

“<“system.web>
“<“compilation debug="true"/>
