Sheffield JS: Hack the p̶l̶a̶n̶e̶t̶ world! (wide web)

This month Caolan will provide some intentionally insecure Node.js programs for us to experiment with. We'll split up into two teams: one will attempt to demonstrate a working exploit, the other will attempt to mitigate the attack by fixing the program.

The security holes will be very straight-forward and easy to understand but will hopefully serve as a talking point to discuss the risks associated.

You do not need to be 1337 to attend, but please bring a laptop if you can. Bonus points if you have Node.js installed (nodejs.org).
