CORS Attack

ow HTTP Headers

Access-Control-Allow: * or <origin> or null

Access-Control-Credentials:

if Access Access-Control-Credentials: true

is Vulnerable CORS

<?php
session_start();

I will try to find this vuln Uing Burpsuit Come with me!

in this request allow credentials if

Testing For CORS Vulnerabilities

remove/add a domain or like attckerlocalhost

Map the application • Test the application for dynamic generation • Does it reflect the user-supplied ACAO header? • Does it only validate on the start/end of a specific string? • Does it allow the null origin? * or yourdoamin,com • Does it restrict the protocol? HTTP or https | 80,8080 or any think • Does it allow credentials?

Click exploit B000000000M!

Mitigation

1. restrict Allowed Origins

2. Limit HTTP Methods

Access-control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST

3. Control Allowed Header

Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type, Authorization

Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
Validate Input and Origin
Content security Policy (CSP)
