	42	Closed	~~Git Configuration Exposure~~	miniohaxer	Task Description Vulnerability Git Configuration Exposure Severity Level Critical Vulnerable Domain: https://upload.alwaysdata.com/.git/config 1. Executive Summary: The Git Configuration Exposure vulnerability poses a significant threat to web applications, allowing unauthorized access to sensitive source code repositories. Through the discovery of exposed .git/ directories, attackers can leverage this information to extract the complete source code of a website. This breach can result in the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, including proprietary code, configuration files, and other critical assets. This executive summary outlines the discovery, impact, and recommended mitigation strategies for this vulnerability. 2. Overview The vulnerability arises when an attacker identifies the presence of a .git/config directory. This discovery provides a direct route to the Git repository of a web application. By employing specialized tools such as those available in Kali Linux, an attacker can download the entire source code of the website, gaining access to proprietary code, scripts, and configuration files. The consequences of this exposure extend beyond the compromise of intellectual property to potential security risks and the unauthorized retrieval of sensitive information. 3. Vulnerability Discovery The vulnerability is discovered through directory research, where the presence of a .git/config directory is identified. Attempts to access this directory reveal the underlying Git repository, providing a pathway for unauthorized individuals to exploit the exposed version control system. 4. Impact Unauthorized Access to Source Code: Attackers can download the complete source code of the website, enabling the extraction of proprietary code, scripts, and configuration files. Intellectual Property Theft: The compromise of source code poses a significant risk of intellectual property theft, potentially leading to unauthorized use or distribution. Sensitive Information Exposure: The extracted source code may contain sensitive information, such as API keys, database credentials, and other critical data, compromising the overall security of the web application. 5. Mitigation Strategies Git Configuration Hardening: Implement strict access controls and configure Git repositories to restrict access to authorized personnel only. Directory Listing Prevention: Disable directory listing to prevent the exposure of .git directories during web server configuration. Git Repository Hosting Security: If using third-party Git repository hosting services, ensure proper access controls are in place, and sensitive information is not exposed. 6. Steps To Reproduce: 1- Visit this URL = https://upload.alwaysdata.com/.git/config 2- You can see the Config file. 3- Using the gitdumper tool, in which I was able to dump the whole .git directory. 4- Boom!! I have access to the whole source code of the application. 4- Command –> ./git_dumper.py https://upload.alwaysdata.com/.git/ your/any/directory/of/kali Important Note: Another thing I'd like to share with you is that I haven't extensively exploited this vulnerability. Otherwise, I could have easily downloaded the entire website's source code, which often contains many and many sensitive information. Proof of concept As you can see that I am able to access the entire source code. Now, if I put the output command to my command, I can download the whole source code.

	41	Closed	~~Directory Listing of Unauthorized Xapian Files~~	miniohaxer	Task Description Vulnerable URL's: https://files.alwaysdata.com/ https://files.alwaysdata.com/migrations/ https://files.alwaysdata.com/migrations/software-2017/ https://files.alwaysdata.com/migrations/software-2020/ Summary: The vulnerability was discovered during security testing when the directory listing feature of a web server listed the xapian-7.3.so file among its contents. Given that xapian-7.3.so is a shared object file for Xapian, a highly versatile search engine library, its exposure poses significant security risks. This file contains compiled code that is executed within the server context, making it a critical component of the search functionality offered by the hosting server. Impact: The inadvertent exposure of xapian-7.3.so could have several potential impacts: Information Disclosure: Malicious actors could download and analyze the shared object file to uncover proprietary algorithms or specific implementations of the search engine, leading to a competitive disadvantage or privacy violations. Security Vulnerability Exploitation: If any vulnerabilities exist within the specific version of the file, attackers could develop exploits to compromise the server or manipulate search engine results. Service Disruption: In scenarios where the file is not merely exposed but also manipulable or deletable, attackers could disrupt the search functionality, leading to denial of service. Mitigation Immediate steps should be taken to mitigate the vulnerability: Disable Directory Listing: Configure the web server to disable directory listing globally or specifically within directories not intended for public access. Access Controls: Implement proper access controls to ensure that sensitive files, such as xapian-7.3.so, are not accessible via the web server to unauthorized users. Security Patches: Ensure that all components, especially exposed ones like xapian-7.3.so, are regularly updated to the latest versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.

Vulnerable URL's: https://files.alwaysdata.com/ https://files.alwaysdata.com/migrations/ https://files.alwaysdata.com/migrations/software-2017/ https://files.alwaysdata.com/migrations/software-2020/

Summary:

The vulnerability was discovered during security testing when the directory listing feature of a web server listed the xapian-7.3.so file among its contents. Given that xapian-7.3.so is a shared object file for Xapian, a highly versatile search engine library, its exposure poses significant security risks. This file contains compiled code that is executed within the server context, making it a critical component of the search functionality offered by the hosting server.

Impact:

The inadvertent exposure of xapian-7.3.so could have several potential impacts:

Information Disclosure: Malicious actors could download and analyze the shared object file to uncover proprietary algorithms or specific implementations of the search engine, leading to a competitive disadvantage or privacy violations.
Security Vulnerability Exploitation: If any vulnerabilities exist within the specific version of the file, attackers could develop exploits to compromise the server or manipulate search engine results.
Service Disruption: In scenarios where the file is not merely exposed but also manipulable or deletable, attackers could disrupt the search functionality, leading to denial of service.

Mitigation

Immediate steps should be taken to mitigate the vulnerability:

Disable Directory Listing: Configure the web server to disable directory listing globally or specifically within directories not intended for public access.
Access Controls: Implement proper access controls to ensure that sensitive files, such as xapian-7.3.so, are not accessible via the web server to unauthorized users.
Security Patches: Ensure that all components, especially exposed ones like xapian-7.3.so, are regularly updated to the latest versions to mitigate known vulnerabilities.
