Exploiting blind XXE to retrieve data via error messages

kr4k1 | Last updated: Nov 04, 2020 01:23PM UTC

Hi, I'd like to ask you about a lab. https://portswigger.net/web-security/xxe/blind/lab-xxe-with-data-retrieval-via-error-messages for this exercise, can we use a Collaborator server ? If we can't use the Collaborator, one on our own website can we create an attack level with the same code by creating a .php file? Thank You.

Hi Ersin, The lab does not require the use of the collaborator server. Have you tried completing the lab using the solution provided?

Hey, thanks for the answer, Uthman, I left out some details.I have successfully completed the lab, but what changes must be made to implement it in a real attack scenario ? can we use a collaborative server ? If we can't use the collaborator, we can create a level of attack with the same code by creating one from our own website .php or udt file?
