Cross-site scripting
​
alert(document.domain) or setInterval`alert\x28document.domain\x29` if you have to use backticks. [1] Using document.domain instead of alert(1) can help avoid reporting XSS bugs in sandbox domains.Command execution
Depends of program rules:
- Read (Linux-based):
cat /proc/1/maps - Write (Linux-based):
touch /root/your_username - Execute (Linux-based):
id
Code execution
This involves the manipulation of a web app such that server-side code (e.g. PHP) is executed.
- PHP:
<?php echo 7*7; ?>
SQL injection
Zero impact
- MySQL and MSSQL:
SELECT @@version - Oracle:
SELECT version FROM v$instance; - Postgres SQL:
SELECT version()
Unvalidated redirect
- Set the redirect endpoint to a known safe domain (e.g.
google.com), or if looking to demonstrate potential impact, to your own website with an example login screen resembling the target's. - If the target uses OAuth, you can try to leak the OAuth token to your server to maximise impact.
Information exposure
Investigate only with the IDs of your own test accounts — do not leverage the issue against other users' data — and describe your full reproduction process in the report.
Cross-site request forgery
When designing a real-world example, either hide the form (
style="display:none;") and make it submit automatically, or design it so that it resembles a component from the target's page.Server-side request forgery
The impact of a SSRF bug will vary — a non-exhaustive list of proof of concepts includes:
- reading local files
- obtaining cloud instance metadata
- making requests to internal services (e.g. Redis)
- accessing firewalled databases
Local file read
Make sure to only retrieve a harmless file. Check the program security policy as a specific file may be designated for testing.
XML external entity processing
Output random harmless data.
Sub-domain takeover
Claim the sub-domain discreetly and serve a harmless file on a hidden page. Do not serve content on the index page.
