#
# Request Smuggling Attack - Input and Data Validation
#
# Implementation
#
# o Attack Applies To Vulnerable web servers and proxies.
#
#
# Description
#
# HTTP request smuggling is a technique to take advantage
# of discrepancies in parsing when one or more HTTP devices
# are between the user and the web server. An attacker may
# be able to 'smuggle' malicious requests through a packet
# inspector, firewall or web proxy server. This technique
# may leave the web server vulnerable to various attacks
# such as web cache poisoning, or allow the attacker to
# request protected files on the web server.
#
# Impact
#
# Cache poisoning: An attacker may be able to ‘rewire’
# o a web server cache so that one page is served when
# another is requested.
#
# Malicious requests: An attacker may be able to smuggle
# o a malicious request through a packet inspector, web proxy
# server, or firewall because of discrepancies in security
# rules between it and the web server.
#
# Credential hijacking: An attacker may be able to insert
# o a request into the HTTP flow, thereby manipulating the
# web server’s request/response sequencing, which can allow
# the attacker to hijack a third party’s credentials.
#
# Vulnerabilities
#
# o Web server, packet inspector, firewall, or web proxy server
# misconfiguration.
#
# Countermeasures
#
# Deploy a non-vulnerable web server: Web servers with a very
# o strict HTTP parsing procedure may not be vulnerable to this
# attack.
#
# Change all pages to non-cacheable: This will force the proxy
# to retrieve the pages from the web server every time. Although
# o this is better from a security perspective, the reality is that
# caching significantly improves the server's performance and
# reduces latency. Thus, other countermeasures are a better long
# term fix.
#
# o Rewrite all HTTP requests: Install a module on a firewall or
# proxy server to rewrite each HTTP request on the fly to a known
# valid request type.
#
# o Update your web server: Contact the web server vendor and check
# if there has been a patch released for a this type of vulnerability.
#
#
# Example
#
# This example describes the classic request smuggling attack
# in which an attacker can poison one page with the contents
# of another. In this example, the attacker combines one POST
# request and two GET requests into a single malformed HTTP
# request. The HTTP request has two Content-Length headers
# with conflicting values. Some servers, such as IIS and
# Apache simply reject such a request, but others attempt to
# ‘fix’ the error. Fortunately for the attacker, certain web
# servers and web proxies choose to pay attention to different
# sections of the malformed request.
#
# In this case let "somewhere.com" be the DNS name of the web
# server behind the proxy, and suppose that "/poison.html" is
# a static and cacheable HTML page on the web server.
#
# 1 POST http://somewhere.com/example.html
# HTTP/1.1\r\n2 Host: somewhere.com\r\n3
# Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n4
# Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n5
# Content-Length: 0\r\n6 Content-Length: 53\r\n7 \r\n8 GET /poison.html HTTP/1.1\r\n9
# Host: somewhere.com\r\n10 Bla: 11 GET http://somewhere.com/index.html HTTP/1.1\r\n12
# Host: somewhere.com\r\n13 Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n14 \r\n
#
# Note that line 10 is the only line that does not end in
# CRLF ("\r\n") and instead there is a space ("Bla: ").
# This request is sent to a web server via a proxy server.
#
# First, this message is parsed by the proxy. When the proxy server
# parses the message, it finds the POST request (lines 1-7) followed by
# the two conflicting Content-Length's (lines 5 and 6). The proxy ignores
# the first header and believes the body is 53 bytes long (which is exactly
# the number of bytes used by lines 8-10 including CRLFs). The proxy then
# sees lines 11-14 and interprets them as a second request.
#
# Second, the message is parsed by the web server. Although the web server
# receives the same message, when it sees the first Content-Length in line 5,
# it thinks that the body of the POST request is 0 bytes in length.
# Therefore it finds the second request in line 8 and interprets line 11
# as the value of "Bla: " in line 10 because of the missing CRLF.
#
#
# At this point the web server responds to the GET in line 8 by sending
# the content of /poison.html to the proxy. The proxy, expecting a
# response to the GET request in line 11, mistakenly matches the reply
# from the webserver with contents from /poison.html to the page /index.html.
# Therefore, the contents of /poison.html are cached under the name /index.html
# on the proxy. Now any user who requests http://somewhere.com/index.html
# through the proxy will receive the contents of http://somewhere.com/poison.html
# instead.
#
# There are several options available to mitigate this attack but all of
# them have their downside. If possible, use a well tested web server such
# as Apache or IIS. Otherwise, you can turn off server-side page caching,
# but this can lead to significant performance problems such as increased
# server load and latency. A final option is to use SSL communication for
# everything (HTTPS instead of HTTP), but this too has an associated
# performance overhead.
