| <h2>[7] π¨ XSS Demonstration</h2> | |
| <p>Since we control template output, we can inject arbitrary HTML/JS:</p> | |

| {{ '<script>console.log("SSTI XSS SUCCESSFUL - Safe Mode Bypassed!")</script>'|raw }} | |
| <img src=x onerror="alert('SSTI+XSS: Safe Mode Bypassed!')" style="display:none;"> | |

| <div class="box"> | |
| <h2 class="success">π EXPLOITATION SUMMARY</h2> | |
| <h3 class="success">β CONFIRMED WORKING:</h3> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li><strong>SSTI Bypass:</strong> Successfully created page with Twig SSTI while Safe Mode ON</li> | |
| <li><strong>Info Disclosure:</strong> PHP version, OS, SAPI revealed</li> | |
| <li><strong>XSS:</strong> Full HTML/JavaScript injection via |raw filter</li> | |
| <li><strong>Session Access:</strong> Can read session data</li> | |
| <li><strong>Template Access:</strong> Can include other templates</li> | |
| <li><strong>Macro Execution:</strong> Can define and execute malicious macros</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <h3 class="fail">β BLOCKED BY SECURITY POLICY:</h3> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>PHP Superglobals (_GET, _POST, _SERVER, _COOKIE) - Not exposed</li> | |
| <li>Page object methods (getAttributes, getContent) - Blocked</li> | |
| <li>Direct file read via source() - Likely blocked or restricted</li> | |
| <li>Direct RCE functions - No path found yet</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <h3 style="color: #ffa500;">β οΈ NEXT STEPS FOR FULL RCE:</h3> | |
| <ol> | |
| <li><strong>Component Exploitation:</strong> Create custom component with CallsAnyMethod</li> | |
| <li><strong>Plugin Development:</strong> Upload malicious plugin with backdoor</li> | |
| <li><strong>Cache Poisoning:</strong> Manipulate cache to inject serialized objects</li> | |
| <li><strong>Session Manipulation:</strong> Exploit deserialization in session handling</li> | |
| <li><strong>Media Upload:</strong> Upload PHP file disguised as image, include via path traversal</li> | |
| </ol> | |
| <h3 class="success">π― CONCLUSION:</h3> | |
| <p><strong>Safe Mode HAS BEEN BYPASSED</strong> - While we cannot execute arbitrary PHP commands directly through Twig SSTI, we have achieved:</p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>β Information disclosure (system info, session data)</li> | |
| <li>β Persistent XSS attack vector</li> | |
| <li>β Template manipulation capabilities</li> | |
| <li>β Foundation for further exploitation</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <p><strong style="color: #ff073a;">CRITICAL:</strong> The fact that we can create and execute pages with Twig templates while Safe Mode is enabled demonstrates that Safe Mode is NOT sufficient protection against determined attackers.</p> | |
