# Emails Vulnerabilities
## Payloads
### Ignored parts of an email
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
The symbols: **+, -** and **{}** in rare occasions can be used for tagging and ignored by most e-mail servers
* E.g. john.doe+intigriti@example.com → john.doe@example.com
2022-04-05 22:24:52 +00:00
**Comments between parentheses ()** at the beginning or the end will also be ignored
* E.g. john.doe(intigriti)@example.com → john.doe@example.com
### Whitelist bypass
* inti(;inti@inti.io;)@whitelisted.com
* inti@inti.io(@whitelisted.com)
* inti+(@whitelisted.com;)@inti.io
### IPs
You can also use IPs as domain named between square brackets:
* john.doe@\[127.0.0.1]
* john.doe@\[IPv6:2001:db8::1]

## Third party SSO
### XSS
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
Some services like **github** or **salesforce allows** you to create an **email address with XSS payloads on it**. If you can **use this providers to login on other services** and this services **aren't sanitising** correctly the email, you could cause **XSS**.
### Account-Takeover
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
If a **SSO service** allows you to **create an account without verifying the given email address** (like **salesforce**) and then you can use that account to **login in a different service** that **trusts** salesforce, you could access any account.\
_Note that salesforce indicates if the given email was or not verified but so the application should take into account this info._
## Reply-To
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
You can send an email using _**From: company.com**_** ** and _**Replay-To: attacker.com**_ and if any **automatic reply** is sent due to the email was sent **from** an **internal address** the **attacker** may be able to **receive** that **response**.
## **References**
2022-04-05 22:24:52 +00:00

## Hard Bounce Rate
Some applications like AWS have a **Hard Bounce Rate** (in AWS is 10%), that whenever is overloaded the email service is blocked.
2021-11-30 16:46:07 +00:00
A **hard bounce** is an **email** that couldnt be delivered for some permanent reasons. Maybe the **emails** a fake address, maybe the **email** domain isnt a real domain, or maybe the **email** recipients server wont accept **emails**) , that means from total of 1000 emails if 100 of them were fake or were invalid that caused all of them to bounce, **AWS SES** will block your service.
So, if you are able to **send mails (maybe invitations) from the web application to any email address, you could provoke this block by sending hundreds of invitations to nonexistent users and domains: Email service DoS.**
