- Lab: Exploiting XInclude to retrieve files
PRACTITIONER
This lab has a "Check stock" feature that embeds the user input inside a server-side XML document that is subsequently parsed.
Because you don't control the entire XML document you can't define a DTD to launch a classic XXE attack.
To solve the lab, inject an XInclude statement to retrieve the contents of the /etc/passwd file.
Hint
By default, XInclude will try to parse the included document as XML. Since /etc/passwd isn't valid XML, you will need to add an extra attribute to the XInclude directive to change this behavior.
