MASKED USER INFORMATION LEAKAGE

Hey Guyes today i found a vulnerability of  user information leakage due to improper auth token implementation in application.

DESCRIPTION:

some applications  mask user informaion like mail id , phone no , adhar card, pain card or any personal information of use for  user privacy. but due to some loop holes an attacker can see masked user information.


LETS CONTINUE HOW I FOUND :- ➤

1.      Login in application

2.      Click on deals and capture that request in burpsuite

3.      Send that request in repeater tab check response



4.      Now logout account check response same response appeared.
5.   I tried to check with old auth token then also same response received

Phone number and mails are not showing in response⦽


1.      I tried to bruteforce deals id

2.      I got the username information like phone number ,mails of that user that is previously authenticated with that auth token.


So if an attacker got expired auth token then he can extract user information by that auth token


Precautions:

Auth token is implemented all over the application. Expired token should not be of used any more.

For this vulnerbility monetha gave a bounty but low 110$ , hence it have low impact: 🔻🔺

A New Way Of Brute force Passcode/Pin Protection By deep link

DESCRIPTION : AS you know already that what is passcode protection and why it is applied ? And how it is bypassed normally ?

ZIP Symlink Vulnerability

What is Symlink? A symlink (also called a symbolic link) is a type of file in Linux that points to another file or a folder on your computer. Symlinks are similar to shortcuts in Windows There are two types of symlinks Soft and Hard Link A symbolic or soft link is an actual link to the original file, whereas a hard link is a mirror copy of the original file. If you delete the original file, the soft link has no value, because it points to a non-existent file. But in the case of hard links, it is entirely the opposite. Even if you delete the original file, the hard link will still have the data of the original file. Because hard link acts as a mirror copy of the original file For know more about the symlink please visit: https://ostechnix.com/explaining-soft-link-and-hard-link-in-linux-with-examples/ What is ZIP SYMLINK  Vulnerability? An  archive can contain a symbolic link. A symbolic link is a special file that links to another file. By uploading a zip containing a symbo...
