🖥 Day 24 – Host-based Monitoring: auditd & osquery

Host logs reveal attacks that network sensors miss — kernel auditing + osquery give powerful host visibility.

Quick checks:

auditctl -l
ausearch -m EXECVE
osqueryi "SELECT pid,name,path,cmdline FROM processes LIMIT 5;"

If auditd isn't running or there are no osquery schedules → low host visibility (detection blindspot).

⚠️ Enable auditd, deploy osquery packs, forward results to SIEM, and baseline outputs for detection.

🎓 File Upload Bypass Techniques 🎓
Advanced File Upload Security Bypasses

🔥 The Challenge
Many web apps implement weak file upload validation that's surprisingly easy to bypass. Here's how attackers slip malicious files past basic filters.

🛠 Common Weak Defenses:
- Content-Type Checking Only - Trusts image/jpeg header
- File Extension Filtering - Blocks .php but misses tricks
- Client-Side Validation - Bypassed with proxy tools
- Magic Bytes Only - Doesn't check actual content

⚡️ Advanced Bypass Methods
🔸1. Content-Disposition Double Extensions

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="image.jpg.php"

👉🏻 Server sees "image.jpg" but executes as ".php"

🔸2. Case Manipulation
- file.pHp
- file.PHP
- file.PhP

🔸 3. Special Characters & Encoding
- file.php%00.jpg
- file.php.jpg (parser confusion)
- file.phphpp (double extension)

🔸4. MIME Type Spoofing
- Content-Type: image/jpeg for actual PHP file
- Add valid image headers + PHP payload

🎯 Detection & Exploitation
Look For These Red Flags:
- Files with <% or <?php tags in upload directories
- Accessible .php files in image folders
- Double extensions in filenames
- Mixed case file extensions

Magic Bytes Limitation:
- Detects file type, not malicious content
- Attackers prepend valid image headers to PHP files

🛡 Secure Implementation Guide
1- Server-Side File Type Verification - Don't trust client headers
2- Whitelist Extensions - Only allow specific safe types
3- Remove Execute Permissions - Upload directories should not run code
4- File Renaming - Generate random filenames, discard originals
5- Content Scanning - Detect malicious code patterns
6- Virus Scanning - For uploaded files

💡 Pro Tips
1- Test with mixed case extensions (pHp, AsPx)
2- Try Unicode/normalization attacks
3- Check for parser inconsistencies
4- Always test with Burp/Postman to bypass client-side checks

🖥 Day 25 – Linux Forensics & IR

Preserve volatile evidence first, collect key artifacts, build a timeline, hash everything, and hand over to IR for deeper analysis.

Quick checks:

ps aux > /tmp/ir_ps.txt
ss -tunap > /tmp/ir_ss.txt
lsof -nP > /tmp/ir_lsof.txt

If the host is rebooted or powered off → volatile memory and active network state are lost (major evidence gap).

⚠️ Do triage from a separate admin host, avoid reboots, capture memory only in controlled labs, and hash/record chain-of-custody.

🔥 4-Step API Testing Methodology
Advanced API Vulnerability Discovery
Use Case: Bug Bounty & API Security Testing

1️⃣ Find Sensitive API Endpoints

➕Target endpoints that leak:
- User PII (emails, phone numbers, addresses)
- Financial data (transactions, balances)
- Authentication tokens & session data
- Internal system information
- Admin-level data in user endpoints

Common sensitive endpoints:

/api/v1/users/[ID]
/api/admin/config
/api/internal/metrics
/api/orders/[ID]
/api/transactions
/api/profile/private

2️⃣ Cache Headers Analysis

➕ Check these response headers for caching:
- Cache-Control: public, max-age=3600 ← CACHED
- CF-Cache-Status: HIT ← Cloudflare Cached
- X-Cache: HIT ← Generic Cache Hit
- Age: 300 ← 5 minutes in cache
- ETag: "abc123" ← Entity tag for cache validation
- Via: 1.1 varnish ← Proxy caching

If cached → Try Web Cache Deception:

Legitimate: /api/users/me/profile
Deception:  /api/users/me/profile.css
Deception:  /api/users/me/profile/

3️⃣ HTTP Method Changing

Bypass auth/validation with method switching:

GET /api/admin/users → 403 Forbidden
POST /api/admin/users → 200 OK + user list

GET /api/config → 404 Not Found  
HEAD /api/config → 200 OK

POST /api/search → 403 Forbidden
PUT /api/search → 200 OK + results

4️⃣ Array-Based IDOR Testing

When you find: /api/users/123
Test these array/IDOR patterns:

/api/users/[123,124]
/api/users/123,124
/api/users/123&124
/api/users/?id[]=123&id[]=124
/api/users/?ids=123,124
/api/users/?user_ids=123,124
/api/batch/users?ids=123,124

🎯 Real-World Attack Chain
Step 1: Discover endpoint /api/v1/users/456
Step 2: Check headers → X-Cache: HIT, max-age=300
Step 3: Change GET to POST → Bypass rate limiting
Step 4: Test array IDOR → /api/v1/users/[456,457,458]
Result: Mass user data leakage + cached responses

🛡 Defense Recommendations
- Consistent Authorization - Apply same checks across all HTTP methods
- Input Validation - Reject array parameters unless explicitly allowed
- Cache Control - Use Cache-Control: private for sensitive data
- API Schema Enforcement - Validate against OpenAPI specification
- Audit Logging - Monitor for unusual parameter patterns

💡 Pro Testing Tips
- Use Burp's "Change Request Method" extension
- Automate with tools like katana or ffuf for endpoint discovery
- Always test both authenticated and unauthenticated contexts
- Combine techniques for maximum impact

🔥 What is IDOR?

IDOR occurs when an application uses user-supplied input to access objects directly without proper authorization checks. Attackers can manipulate references to access other users' data.
An IDOR vulnerability occurs when a web application uses user-supplied input (such as an ID, filename, or database key) to directly access an internal object or resource without proper access control or authorization checks. This allows an attacker to manipulate these references to gain unauthorized access to data or functionality that should be restricted

🎯 Common IDOR Examples

Simple IDOR:

Normal: /api/user/123/profile
Attack: /api/user/124/profile

Parameter-Based IDOR:

Normal: /download?file=user123.txt
Attack: /download?file=admin.txt

API Endpoint IDOR:

Normal: GET /api/orders/456
Attack: GET /api/orders/789

🛠 Advanced IDOR Techniques

1. Array-Based IDOR:

/api/users/[101,102,103]
/api/users/?ids[]=101&ids[]=102
/api/batch?users=101,102,103

2. HTTP Method Switching:

GET /api/admin/users → 403 Forbidden
POST /api/admin/users → 200 OK + Data

3. UUID/Hash Prediction:

/documents/550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

Try incrementing or predicting other UUIDs

4. Parameter Pollution:

?user_id=123&user_id=124
?account=123&account=124

💡 Testing Methodology

Step 1: Find Object References
- Look for numeric IDs, UUIDs, usernames in URLs
- Check API endpoints with user-specific data
- Review JavaScript files for API calls

Step 2: Test Authorization
- Change IDs while logged in as User A
- Try accessing other users' resources
- Test with different HTTP methods

Step 3: Escalate Impact
- From user data → admin panels
- From read access → write/delete access
- Combine with other vulnerabilities

⚡️ Pro Tips for Bug Bounty
Bypass Common Defenses:
- Use URL encoding: %32 for 2
- Try different formats: hex, decimal, base64
- Test with trailing slashes or parameters

➕ Automate Discovery:

# Use tools like ffuf for mass IDOR testing
ffuf -w user_ids.txt -u https://target.com/api/user/FUZZ

Look For:
- Sequential numeric IDs
- Predictable patterns
- Lack of authorization tokens
- Weak session management

🛡 Defense Strategies
- Use Indirect References - Map to internal IDs
- Proper Authorization - Check permissions on every request
- Random UUIDs - Avoid sequential identifiers
- Input Validation - Validate and sanitize all user input
- Audit Logging - Monitor for suspicious access patterns

🎯 Real-World Impact
✅ Access other users' personal data
✅ View confidential documents
✅ Modify/delete other users' content
✅ Elevate privileges to admin access

IDOR Part 2 - Advanced Bypass Techniques 🎓

🔥 UUID-Based IDOR Tricks
various techniques used to discover and exploit Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerabilities, which are a type of broken access control flaw. IDOR occurs when an application exposes a direct reference to an internal object (like a database ID or filename) and fails to implement proper access control checks.

Lets start with some tips :
- The NULL UUID Technique:

# Try these special UUID values:
00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111
ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff

Often exposes default objects, admin accounts, or test

- UUID Pattern Prediction:

# If you see: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000
# Try incrementing last segments:
550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440001
550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440002

# Or decrementing:
550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655439999

🎯 Advanced Bypass Methods
1. Case Manipulation:

/user/123 → /user/124  # Obvious
/user/ABC123 → /user/abc123  # Case variation
/user/AbC123 → /user/aBc123  # Mixed case

2. Encoding Variations:

// URL Encoding
user%32 → user2
%31%32%33 → 123

// Unicode Normalization
%C0%AE%2E → .. (path traversal in IDs)

3. Parameter Shifting:

# Original: /api/user?id=123&type=profile
/api/user?id=124&type=profile  # Basic IDOR
/api/user?id=123&type=admin    # Type parameter IDOR
/api/user?id=124&type=admin    # Combined IDOR

💡 Creative IDOR Discovery
1. Batch Request IDOR:

POST /api/batch
[
  {"method": "GET", "path": "/users/101"},
  {"method": "GET", "path": "/users/102"},
  {"method": "GET", "path": "/users/103"}
]

2. GraphQL IDOR:
Look for user(id:) parameters

query {
  user(id: "101") { email }
  user(id: "102") { email }
}

3. WebSocket IDOR:
Check WebSocket messages for object references

ws.send('{"action":"getUser","id":"101"}')
ws.send('{"action":"getUser","id":"102"}')

⚡️ Pro-Level Testing Strategies

1. Timing-Based Detection:
- Compare response times for valid vs invalid IDs
- Faster responses often mean cached/valid data
- Slower responses might indicate DB queries for non-existent objects

2. Error Message Analysis:

# Different errors reveal different information:
ID 101 → 200 OK (your data)
ID 102 → 403 Forbidden (exists, no access)
ID 999 → 404 Not Found (doesn't exist)
ID 000 → 500 Error (unexpected input)

3. Mass IDOR Testing with FFUF:
- Test numeric ranges

ffuf -w ranges.txt -u https://target.com/api/user/FUZZ

- Test UUID patterns

ffuf -w uuids.txt -u https://target.com/docs/FUZZ

- Test with different HTTP methods

ffuf -X POST -w ids.txt -u https://target.com/api/delete/FUZZ

🛡 Bypassing Common Protections

Against Rate Limiting:
- Use different IPs or user agents
- Add delays between requests
- Use batch endpoints to check multiple IDs at once

Against Token Validation:
- Try removing tokens entirely
- Use other users' tokens
- Manipulate token expiration

Against Referer Checks:
- Spoof referer headers
- Use null referer
- Chain with XSS to bypass completely

🎯 Real-World Impact Scenarios
Horizontal to Vertical Escalation:

User A → Access User B's data (Horizontal)
User A → Find admin UUID → Access admin panel (Vertical)

Data Correlation Attacks:
- Find user IDs through other endpoints
- Correlate data across different API versions
- Chain IDOR with information disclosure

Pro Tip: Always test the NULL UUID (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000) - you'd be surprised how many systems have default objects exposed! 💰

tcpdump -D                     # detect capture interfaces
tcpdump -i eth0                # live capture
tcpdump -i any port 53         # watch DNS in real time
tcpdump -A -i eth0 'tcp port 80'  # spot cleartext creds

Risks & attacker value:
- Cleartext protocols leak creds & API keys
- DNS reveals hostnames + internal mapping
- Misconfigs expose tokens, cookies, session IDs
- Great for catching brute-force, beaconing, data exfiltration

Fast workflow :

tcpdump -i eth0 -w dump.pcap          # capture
tshark -r dump.pcap -Y "http.request" # extract HTTP
tshark -r dump.pcap --export-objects http,./loot
