The slides and a video of my Ruby on Rails Security session are now online. The 24C3 was a lot of fun, unfortunately I couldn't spend all 4 days there.
My talk covered most of the common web application vulnerabilities like Cross Site Scripting and Cross Site Request Forgery, SQL and Code injection, and deployment security and how they apply to Rails. Further Ruby on Rails specific issues like Rails plugin security, JavaScript/Ajax security, and Rails configuration were be examined and best practice solutions were introduced.
