🔬Web App Scanning

Lab 1 - ZAProxy

🔬 Scanning Web Application with ZAProxy

  • Target IP: 192.192.29.3

  • Scan and identify a vulnerable web app (bWAPP) with ZAProxy

ip -br -c a
	eth1@if203734  UP  192.192.29.2/24

nmap -sS -sV 192.192.29.3

  • Start owasp-zap from the start menu

    • Use Manual Explore and input the URL

      • http://192.192.29.3/

    • Launch Browser to open the browser session with the ZAP HUB

  • Login to the web app with bee:bug credentials

    • set the security level to low

  • Try some HTML and SQL Injection or other bugs from the https://192.192.29.3/portal.php page

ZAProxy

  • Configure authenticated session in ZAProxy

  • Enable Forced User mode

  • Include in Context the Site https://192.192.29.3/ and confirm with OK

  • Run a Spider attack on the site, select the bee user and Start the scan

  • Run an Active Scan on the site, select the bee user and Start the scan

  • In the Alerts tab check the 🚩High risk Alerts

  • Try to navigate to https://192.192.29.3/htmli_stored.php, inject the XSS (Cross-site Scripting) payload and Submit it

    • The XSS payload will be triggered

  • Using the ZAP HUD, Site Alerts can be accessed. Every vulnerability is clickable and can be directly tried via the URL

  • Try a SQL Injection attack by opening this link

    • http://192.210.141.3/sqli_1.php?action=search&title=ZAP'+OR+'1'%3D'1'+--+

    • The table records will be dumped on the web page

Lab 2 - Nikto

🔬 Scanning Web Application with Nikto

  • Target IP: 192.157.60.3

  • Scan and identify web app vulnerabilities (Multillidae II) with Nikto

    • LFI

ip -br -c a
	eth1@if203734  UP  192.157.60.2/24

nmap -sS -sV 192.157.60.3

  • Open the browser and navigate to

    • http://192.157.60.3/

Nikto

  • In the Bash terminal run nikto and output the results to a file

nikto -h http://192.157.60.3 -o niktoscan-192.157.60.3.txt

  • Scan the target web app for Local File Inclusion (LFI) vulnerability by copying the link from the browser

    • http://192.157.60.3/index.php?page=arbitrary-file-inclusion.php

    • output to an HTML file

nikto -h http://192.157.60.3/index.php?page=arbitrary-file-inclusion.php -Tuning 5 -o nikto.html -Format htm
firefox nikto.html

  • The PHP-Nuke Rocket add-in is vulnerable to file traversal, allowing an attacker to view any file on the host

    • View the contents of the passwd file of the target machine

    • http://192.157.60.3/index.php/index.php?page=../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd
