Hi,

Did you try WebScarab?  Webscarab can help you on Session ID as well.

Thanks/Shankar

Subject: Session ID Analysis


Hi,

I have been analysing session IDs generated by a test site (for
security practice) using burp. Burp reports that the randomnes of the
sessionids is extremely poor. having a look at the session Ids, i can
tell the first 50 or so bytes are about the same on all sessionIDs.
And the other 10 appear to change. I bet burp got to this conclusion
based on the first 50 bytes or so. Suppose the developer came and said
yes, the first 50bytes are based on a calculation by date (hence they
are all teh same) but the last 10 bytes are extremely random...how
would i be able to confirm or deny this? I will paste a couple of the
sessionIds here and I would be most grateful if I got ideas of what
the changing bytes could be. Ultimately i want to see if i will be
able to predict sessionIDs.

May i also kindly have suggestions of software that i can use to find
solutions to the above or to analyse sessionIds. thanks. I will paste
a sample of the session Ids here for your perusal.
