Point them at Burp Collaborator/OOB listeners, then at internal IPs and metadata endpoints.\n\n## Deeper notes\nClassify as basic (response returned), blind (only timing/OOB), and constrained (scheme/host filters). Cloud metadata endpoints remain high-value on cloud-hosted apps. Internal port scanning via SSRF can map admin panels — stay within scope and rate limits. Note DNS rebinding as an advanced bypass when static IP allowlists are used.\n\n## Focus: finding ssrf\nThis section of the source material emphasizes **finding ssrf**. When you practice, deliberately exercise that angle on a lab or in-scope target before moving on, and write down what signals confirmed or refuted the issue.\n\n## Methodology\n1. Locate features that fetch URLs (webhooks, importers, thumbnailers, PDF renderers).\n2. Point them at an OOB listener to confirm server-side fetch.\n3. Iterate internal IPs, localhost services, and cloud metadata endpoints in scope.\n4. Document the internal resource retrieved; avoid destructive pivoting.\n\n## Why these steps work\nFollowing a consistent order reduces false negatives: you first understand the feature, then inject safely, then escalate only after a clear signal, and finally verify impact on a second principal. Skipping verification is how duplicates and Informative tickets happen.\n\n## Example probes (authorized testing only)\n```\nhttp://127.0.0.1:80/\nhttp://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/\nhttp://[::1]/\nfile:///etc/passwd\n```\nUse the least aggressive probe that proves the class of bug. Escalate payload strength only as needed for impact demonstration.\n\n## Mitigation notes\nAllowlist outbound destinations, block link-local/cloud metadata, and authenticate internal services.\n\n## Verification & ethics\nConfirm on your own test accounts whenever possible. Prefer non-destructive proofs (canary values, collaborator hits, harmless commands). Only test targets you are authorized to assess and stay inside program scope. If a step might affect other users or availability, pause and check the policy or ask the program. Manually verify automated findings before filing to protect your signal-to-noise reputation.\n\n## Advanced tip\nLook for filter bypasses, chain opportunities (e.g., redirect→OAuth, SSRF→metadata, XSS→CSRF), and less-tested surfaces like obscure content-types or secondary apps in scope."}], "metadata": {"source": "Bug Bounty Bootcamp", "source_author": "Vickie Li", "category": "Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)", "cwe": "CWE-918", "category_type": "scenario", "chapter": "Ch 13: Server-Side Request Forgery — finding ssrf", "difficulty": "advanced", "domain": "web_appsec", "record_id": "09acae4a4dac5a5c", "response_length": 338, "num_turns": 3, "training_source": "web_offensive_elite_v2_sft", "signal": true, "dataset_key": "90fda29e18db25b7faa497fed34a4df8668a8764a760c064943dd23186e9a3c1", "split": "valid", "merged_collection": "security-sft", "merged_from_split": "signal", "class": "ssrf", "class_backfilled": true, "grounding": "authored_curated", "license": "review-upstream", "provenance": "upstream", "has_think": false}}

String-literal tokenization on a separate class of hex-escape-rich input.\n3.

Always scope targets explicitly for authorized testing.\n\n### Practical walkthrough\n1. Restate the goal in engagement language (authorized test only) and identify the systems in scope for this technique (`credential_sniffing`).\n2. Prepare the lab or staging dependency the book assumes for `8 Raw Packet Processing` — disposable VMs/containers beat production every time.\n3. Execute the minimal proof first (one target, one probe, one record) before scaling concurrency or wordlists.\n4. Capture evidence suitable for a report: command/query, sanitized response, timestamps, tool version.\n5. Map the issue to a control the customer can implement this sprint, not only a long-term architecture wish.\n\n### Reporting & severity hints\n- Difficulty labeled `advanced` in training metadata — calibrate language for that audience.\n- CWE hint: `CWE-319`. Use it when it fits; leave blank in reports if no CWE cleanly applies.\n- Always include reproduction preconditions (auth role, feature flag, network path).\n- Offer both attacker impact and defender detection ideas so the fine-tuned model learns balanced answers.\n\n### Source grounding\nThis guidance is synthesized from **Black Hat Go**, chapter **8 Raw Packet Processing**, without copying long passages.

They do this by performing API calls and seeing which succeed and which fail. There are even automated [tools](█████) to make this process easier. For defenders and security professionals, this behavior serves as a golden opportunity for detection as it likely involves generating a large number of failed API call attempts. If an adversary could enumerate permissions without logging to CloudTrail, they could perform this activity invisibly.\n\nThere are many categories of CloudTrail bypass. The specific variant we will be focussed on in this report has been referred to as “non-production endpoint permission enumeration CloudTrail bypass”. If you would like to learn more about it, you can find more details [here](███). \n\n**We have found 44 non-production endpoints for the Datazone service which can be used with standard IAM credentials, and do not log to CloudTrail.** While it is good that they don’t appear to have access to customer partition data, they can still be used for permission enumeration without logging to CloudTrail. \n\nAWS has previously [stated](████) that this type of vulnerability should be reported. Specifically, “For isolated non-production endpoints that do not log to CloudTrail but are otherwise callable with normal credentials and exhibit normal IAM permission behavior, AWS considers the CloudTrail logging bypass of such endpoints also to be a security issue. If you find an API or APIs on an endpoint with these characteristics, please contact the AWS Security Team at ███████”. \n\nAs an aside, these endpoints appear to include AWS employee names or aliases in them. Presumably these are for test environments or something similar.\n\n**Description:** \n\n## Steps To Reproduce:\n\nTo see an example of what should appear in CloudTrail when using normal production endpoints, perform the following AWS CLI operation with a sufficiently privileged IAM user or role:\n\n```\naws datazone list-domains\n```\n\nWait approximately 5-10 minutes and a log will appear in CloudTrail. Next, perform the following AWS CLI operation:\n\n```\naws datazone list-domains --endpoint-url ██████\n```\n\nAfter waiting 5-10 minutes (or longer), notice that it does not generate a log in CloudTrail. An adversary can perform this operation and depending on the response of the API make a determination if an Identity they have compromised does, or does not have permission to perform the operation. \n\n## Supporting Material/References:\n\n* Indicate the Amazon service or product that this vulnerability occurs on: \n\ndatazone\n\n* What type of Amazon AWS account(s) is needed to verify or reproduce this vulnerability?: \n\nStandard commercial partition account\n\n* Estimated CVSS score and vector string: \n\n4.3 CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X\n\n* Estimated CWEs (comma separated): \n\nCWE-778: Insufficient Logging\n\n* Have you already publicly disclosed any information on this issue?

One way to distinguish these vulnerabilities is that they aren't present\nin the source code of the software under consideration; rather, they are rooted in how\nthe software interacts with its environment. Specifically, they can include issues with\nconfiguration of the software in its environment, issues with configuration of\nsupporting software and computers, and issues caused by automated and manual\nprocesses that surround the system. Operational vulnerabilities can even include\ncertain types of attacks on users of the system, such as social engineering and theft.\nThese issues occur in the SDLC operation and maintenance phase, although they\nhave some overlap into the integration and testing phase.\n\nGoing back to the TELNET example, you know TELNET has a design flaw because of its\nlack of encryption. Say you're looking at a software system for automated securities\ntrading. Suppose it needs a set of weighting values to be updated every night to\nadjust its trading strategy for the next day. The documented process for updating this\ndata is for an administrator to log in to the machine using TELNET at the end of each\nbusiness day and enter the new set of values through a simple utility program.\nDepending on the environment, this process could represent a major operational\nvulnerability because of the multiple risks associated with using TELNET, including\nsniffing and connection hijacking.

They do this by performing API calls and seeing which succeed and which fail. There are even automated [tools](███████) to make this process easier. For defenders and security professionals, this behavior serves as a golden opportunity for detection as it likely involves generating a large number of failed API call attempts. If an adversary could enumerate permissions without logging to CloudTrail, they could perform this activity invisibly.\n\nThere are many categories of CloudTrail bypass. The specific variant we will be focussed on in this report has been referred to as “non-production endpoint permission enumeration CloudTrail bypass”. If you would like to learn more about it, you can find more details [here](https://securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/non-production-endpoints-as-an-attack-surface-in-aws/#silent-permission-enumeration). \n\n**We have found 7 non-production endpoints for the Amazon Neptune Graph service which can be used with standard IAM credentials, and do not log to CloudTrail.** While it is good that they don’t appear to have access to customer partition data, they can still be used for permission enumeration without logging to CloudTrail. \n\nAWS has previously [stated](https://securitylabs.datadoghq.com/articles/non-production-endpoints-as-an-attack-surface-in-aws/#the-response-from-aws) that this type of vulnerability should be reported. Specifically, “For isolated non-production endpoints that do not log to CloudTrail but are otherwise callable with normal credentials and exhibit normal IAM permission behavior, AWS considers the CloudTrail logging bypass of such endpoints also to be a security issue. If you find an API or APIs on an endpoint with these characteristics, please contact the AWS Security Team at [REDACTED_EMAIL]”. \n\n**Description:** \n\n## Steps To Reproduce:\n\nTo see an example of what should appear in CloudTrail when using normal production endpoints, perform the following AWS CLI operation with a sufficiently privileged IAM user or role:\n\n```\naws neptune-graph list-graphs\n```\n\nWait approximately 5-10 minutes and a log will appear in CloudTrail. Next, perform the following AWS CLI operation:\n\n```\naws neptune-graph list-graphs --endpoint-url ███████\n```\n\nAfter waiting 5-10 minutes (or longer), notice that it does not generate a log in CloudTrail. An adversary can perform this operation and depending on the response of the API make a determination if an Identity they have compromised does, or does not have permission to perform the operation. \n\n## Supporting Material/References:\n\n* Indicate the Amazon service or product that this vulnerability occurs on: \n\nneptune-graph\n\n* What type of Amazon AWS account(s) is needed to verify or reproduce this vulnerability?: \n\nStandard commercial partition account\n\n* Estimated CVSS score and vector string: \n\n4.3 CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X\n\n* Estimated CWEs (comma separated): \n\nCWE-778: Insufficient Logging\n\n* Have you already publicly disclosed any information on this issue?

Fortunately it currently does not exist in gitlab.com. It seems that gitlab.com [disables](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/6144#note_232311971) the dependencies validation. However this feature is enable by default in self-managed installation.\n\n### Steps to reproduce\n\nThe following steps should to be reproduced in a self-managed installation of gitlab\n\n1. Create an empty project\n2. Go to \"Settings/CI/CD/Runners\" to setup a runner for this project\n3. Create new file `.gitlab-ci.yml` for this project using the following content:\n\n```yaml\ntest:\n stage: build\n script: \n - date > index.html\n artifacts:\n paths: \n - index.html\n expire_in: 1 second\n\njob-test:\n stage: test\n script: echo \"hi\"\n dependencies: [\"test\"]\n```\n\n4. Wait for the jobs terminated, go to the detail of `job-test`\n5. You should see an alert that contains the current url\n\n### Impact\n\nStored-XSS allow attackers to perform arbitrary actions on behalf of victims at client side. \nFurthermore, by using `:\n stage: build\n script: \n - date > index.html\n artifacts:\n paths: \n - index.html\n expire_in: 1 second\n\njob-test:\n stage: test\n script: echo \"hi\"\n dependencies: [\"test\"]\n```\n\n4.
