28C3: Effective Denial of Service attacks against web application platforms

Programme entry for the 28C3 talk by Alexander Klink and Julian Waelde on HashDoS. A common flaw in how PHP, ASP.NET, Java and other platforms hash form-parameter keys lets a single crafted HTTP request pin a web server's CPU at 99 percent for minutes to hours. The attack is independent of the application, relying only on the platform's string hash function.
