Angularjs CSTI Scanner

What is AngularJS Client-Side Template Injection Scanner (acstis)?

The AngularJS Client-Side Template Injection Scanner (acstis) is an open source scanner for finding possible template injection vulnerabilities on websites using AngularJS.

For more information visit the projects GitHub site.

Deployment

The angularjs-csti-scanner chart can be deployed via helm:

# Install HelmChart (use -n to configure another namespace)
helm upgrade --install angularjs-csti-scanner secureCodeBox/angularjs-csti-scanner

Scanner Configuration

The only mandatory parameter is:

-d: The url to scan (e.g. https://angularjs.org/).

Optional arguments:

-c, --crawl                                                                      use the crawler to scan all the entire domain
-vp, --verify-payload                                                            use a javascript engine to verify if the payload was executed (otherwise false positives may occur)
-av ANGULAR_VERSION, --angular-version ANGULAR_VERSION                           manually pass the angular version (e.g. 1.4.2) if the automatic check doesn't work
-vrl VULNERABLE_REQUESTS_LOG, --vulnerable-requests-log VULNERABLE_REQUESTS_LOG  log all vulnerable requests to this file (e.g. /var/logs/acstis.log or urls.log)
-siv, --stop-if-vulnerable                                                       (crawler option) stop scanning if a vulnerability was found
-pmm, --protocol-must-match                                                      (crawler option) only scan pages with the same protocol as the starting point (e.g. only https)
-sos, --scan-other-subdomains                                                    (crawler option) also scan pages that have another subdomain than the starting point
-soh, --scan-other-hostnames                                                     (crawler option) also scan pages that have another hostname than the starting point
-sot, --scan-other-tlds                                                          (crawler option) also scan pages that have another tld than the starting point
-md MAX_DEPTH, --max-depth MAX_DEPTH                                             (crawler option) the maximum search depth (default is unlimited)
-mt MAX_THREADS, --max-threads MAX_THREADS                                       (crawler option) the maximum amount of simultaneous threads to use (default is 20)
-iic, --ignore-invalid-certificates                                              (crawler option) ignore invalid ssl certificates

Do not override the option -vrl or --vulnerable-requests-log. It is already configured for automatic findings parsing.

Requirements

Kubernetes: >=v1.11.0-0

Additional Chart Configurations

Request configuration

Because acstis does not provide command line arguments for configuring the sent requests, you have to mount a config map into the scan container on a specific location. Your additional config map should be mounted to /home/angularjscsti/acstis/config/acstis-config.py. For example create a config map:

kubectl create configmap --from-file /path/to/my/acstis-config.py acstis-config

Then, mount it into the container:

    volumes:
     - name: "acstis-config"
       configMap:
         name: "acstis-config"
    volumeMounts:
     - name: "acstis-config"
       mountPath: "/home/angularjscsti/acstis/config/"

Configuration options in acstis-config.py

Add the following snippets to the acstis-config.py file to enable further options. The options are python code which will be injected into the acstis script before execution.

Basic Authentication

options.identity.auth = HTTPBasicAuth("username", "password")

Cookies

options.identity.cookies.set(name='tasty_cookie', value='yum', domain='finnwea.com', path='/cookies')
options.identity.cookies.set(name='gross_cookie', value='blech', domain='finnwea.com', path='/elsewhere')

Headers

options.identity.headers.update({
    "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36",
    "Authorization": "Bearer ey3jafoe.2jefo..."
})

Proxies

options.identity.proxies = {
    # No authentication
    # 'http': 'http://host:port',
    # 'https': 'http://host:port',

    # Basic authentication

options.scope.protocol_must_match = False

options.scope.subdomain_must_match = True

options.scope.hostname_must_match = True

options.scope.tld_must_match = True

options.scope.max_depth = None

options.scope.request_methods = [

scan-website-with-options

To add some headers to the scanners requests create a file called acstis-config.py with the following content:

options.identity.headers.update({
    "Authorization": "Bearer <JWT>"
})

Then create a config map from this file:

kubectl create configmap --from-file /path/to/my/acstis-config.py acstis-config

After mounting the config map to the specified path you can execute your scan.
