WAFLab is a web-based platform for testing WAFs.

https://waflab.org/

WAFLab contains 3 parts:

• Go
• Node.js
• Docker

Get the source code from Github via Git

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/waflab.git

WAFLab use database to store generated testcases and test results.

Prepare a Xorm ORM supported database (MySQL is recommended), replace root:123@tcp(localhost:3306)/ in conf/app.conf with your own connection string. WAFLab will create a database named waflab and necessary tables in it if not exist. All Xorm supported databases are listed here.

Git clone the OWASP ModSecurity Core Rule Set (CRS) and WAFBench under a same directory

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/WAFBench.git
git clone https://github.com/coreruleset/coreruleset.git

Pick the CRS version you would like to use. We use CRS v3.2 as an example here.

cd coreruleset
git checkout --track origin/v3.2/master

Set the CodeBaseDir inside waflab/util/const.go to the directory of WAFBench and CRS.

const CodeBaseDir = "DIRECTORY/OF/WAFBENCH/AND/CRS"

Run Server-backend (at port 7070 by default):

cd waflab
go run main.go

Install all Node.js dependencies with npm.

cd waflab/web
npm install

Run Server-frontend (at port 7000 by default)

npm start

WAFLab web interface is now avaliable at http://localhost:7000/.
