Curl Usage with Google Dev Tools – First steps

To copy Curl Syntax for bash Shell do the following

  • Load your inital WebSite a first time
  • Press F12 to attach/open Google Dev Tools
  • Reload your Page
  • Navigate to Network Tab
  • Right click the desired API call
  • Select “Copy” -> “Copy as cURL (bash)”
Retrieve the cURL bash Command using Google Dev Tools

Run our first cURL command

  • Paste the cURL command to a bash Shell
  • Add -v switch to get HTTP header dumped
  • redirect stderr by adding: 2>&1
$ curl 'https://52.58.164.53:8443/index.action'  -H 'Pragma: no-cache' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.8' -H 'Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36' -H 'Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8' -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' -H 'Cookie: JSESSIONID=1jzw19tuvg42wl93fxp1exzkf'  -H 'Connection: keep-alive' --compressed --insecure -v 2>&1

HTTP Status of our first cURL request

  • The Website gets loaded sucessfuly -> HTTP/1.1 200 OK
  • The Website Content-Length is: 8471
  • The Website uses cookies: JSESSIONID
  • The Website uses https protocol

Use the Google Dev to understand the Login Logic

JavaScript and JavaScript Files load by the Initial Request

index.action loads 2 javascript files

  • login.js
  • verifyCode.js

Processing and Validation of Login Form


	var verifyResult;
	$("#login").click(function() {
		if (!allowLogin) {
			jAlert(browserMessage, Message.alarm_info, '{"' + Message.sur						+ '":"OK"}');
			clearPassword();				
			return;
		}

		var userName = $.trim($("#userName").val());
		var password = $("#password").val();

		if (!loginValidate(userName, password)) {
			clearPassword();
			return;
		}
		var showVerifyCode = document.getElementById("verifyCode_tr").style.display;
		comitLogin(userName, password);
	});
  • For our cURL tutorials we can skip this Step as we already know username / password
  • Let’s review the JS function comitLogin()

Login Code implemented via sync. AJAX POST resquest

function comitLogin(userName, password) {

	if ($("#veryCode").is(":visible")) {
		if (!validateVCodeLength()) {
			clearPassword();
			return;
		}
	}

	var code = $("#veryCode").attr("value");

	$.ajax({
		url : basePath + "security!login.action",
		type : "POST",
		async : false,
		dataType : "json",
		data : {
			"userName" : userName,
			"password" : password,
			dateTime : new Date().getTime(),
			"veryCode" : code
		},
		cache : false,
		beforeSend:function (XMLHttpRequest)
		{
			//let go
		},
		success : function(res) {
			clearPassword();
			$("#pass1").val("");
			$("#pass2").val("");
			$("#loginErrorMsg").html("")
			$("#loginErrorMsg2").html("");
			if (res.retMsg == "op.successfully") {
				window.location.href = newPath + "securitys!tologin.action";
				return;
			} else if (res.retMsg == "op.update") {
				  $("#loginView").hide();
                       ....
  • For sending username,password,date and verificationCode a POST request is used
  • The remote function to be called is security!login.action
  • A successfull login should return: “op.successfully”
  • After successfull login a page redirection is triggered to: securitys!tologin.action

Step 1: Implement the Website JavaScript Login with bash/cURL

Set breakpoint in AJAX POTS when returning from AJAX POST request

Login the Page – Login process is paused

Verify Response and Request Headers
Image curl_img5.jpg NOT Found“;[/insert_php]
  • For further processing we need to use the JSESSIONID returned by the Response header

Paste above Output to a Bash Shell

What we learned in Step 1

  • A sucessful login returns message {"retMsg":"op.successfully"} and a new JSESSIONID
  • This JSESSIONID need to be used for subsequent HTTP/AJAX request
  • Note: At this stage we are able to attack this page using a brute FORCE methode

Step 2: Implement the Login Redirect using bash/cURL

  • After as succesfull login the page is redirectet to securitys!tologin.action
  • For the complete JS Code review Step 1
    if (res.retMsg == "op.successfully") {
	window.location.href = newPath + "securitys!tologin.action";
    return;

Use Google Dev tools to extract cURL bash Code

  • Login to the WebSite
  • Navigate to Network Tab
  • Locate the securitys!tologin.action Request
  • Select “Copy” -> “Copy as cURL (bash)”

HTTP Return Code:  < HTTP/1.1 200 OK
            Note:  Dont forget to set $csrf_token variable extracted from HTML Meta Data  !
             Run:  $ export csrf_token="X-CSRF-TOKEN: 218df123-fa18-44ba-8f3f-2dbc378e987c"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 3: Finally Implement the Page Access using bash/cURL

  • For this script we need: JSESSIONID returned from WRlogin.sh
  • X-CSRF-TOKEN retuned from WRlogin2,sh

Follow the steps from above to extract the cURL bash command

$ curl 'https://52.58.164.53:8443/summaryAction!querySummaryInfo.action?nodeSN=0' -X POST -H 'Pragma: no-cache' -H 'Origin: https://52.58.164.53:8443' -H 'Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br' -H 'X-CSRF-TOKEN: 508a5c53-6d3d-4ed1-b56e-e292fcf0a2dc' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Safari/537.36' -H 'Accept: application/json, text/javascript, */*; q=0.01' -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' -H 'X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest' -H 'Cookie: JSESSIONID=1b0miyons0sfl1uqxsbhdv0zud' -H 'Connection: keep-alive' -H 'Referer: https://52.58.164.53:8443/summaryAction!accessSummaryPage.action?nodeSN=0' -H 'Content-Length: 0' --compressed --insecure

\"currentPower\":\"3,860 kW\",\"dayPower\":\"12,170 kWh\",\"daytotalRadiation\":\"\",\"gridStatus\":false
.....

Build a bash shell script WRData.sh for simulating the WebSite Access

#!/bin/bash
#
# Use Google Dev dev tools and select Copy as cURL (bash) to learn quickly about the Curl Syntax for a HTML request
#
# Note to run this script we need a valid Env - The related export commands should be run after script executipn
#
#    - JSESSIONID cookie -> login.sh  -> export cookie="Cookie: JSESSIONID=18knsdija6tyjjmej043tac8m"
#    - X-CSRF-TOKEN      -> login2.sh -> export csrf_token='X-CSRF-TOKEN: 1de4c25b-724a-4b96-a187-c72b134a5b9f'
#
#  --> When now rerunning this SCRIPT both CSRF data and JSESSIONID should not change anymore !
