Manipulating gRPC-Web Payloads

gRPC-Web uses Content-Type: application/grpc-web-text in requests which is kind of protobuf in base64 encoded form, you can use gprc-coder tool ,and you can also install its Burp Suite Extension.

Manual with gGRPC Coder Tool

  1. First decode the payload:
echo "AAAAABYSC0FtaW4gTmFzaXJpGDY6BVhlbm9u" | python3 grpc-coder.py --decode --type grpc-web-text | protoscope > out.txt
  1. Edit the content of decoded payload
nano out.txt
2: {"Amin Nasiri Xenon GRPC"}
3: 54
7: {"<script>alert(origin)</script>"}
  1. Encode the new payload
protoscope -s out.txt | python3 grpc-coder.py --encode --type grpc-web-text
  1. Use output in Burp interceptor:
AAAAADoSFkFtaW4gTmFzaXJpIFhlbm9uIEdSUEMYNjoePHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydChvcmlnaW4pPC9zY3JpcHQ+

Manual with gRPC-Web Coder Burp Suite Extension

You can use gRPC-Web Coder Burp Suite Extension in gRPC-Web Pentest Suite which is easier. You can read the installation and usage instruction in its repo.

Analysing gRPC-Web Javascript Files

There is at least one Javascript file in every gRPC-Web application. You can analyse the file to find new messages, endpoints and services. Try using gRPC-Scan tool.

  1. Download the Javascript gRPC-Web File
  2. Scan it with grpc-scan.py:
python3 grpc-scan.py --file main.js
  1. Analyse output and test the new endpoints and new services:
Output:
Found Endpoints:
  /grpc.gateway.testing.EchoService/Echo
  /grpc.gateway.testing.EchoService/EchoAbort
  /grpc.gateway.testing.EchoService/NoOp
  /grpc.gateway.testing.EchoService/ServerStreamingEcho
  /grpc.gateway.testing.EchoService/ServerStreamingEchoAbort
