Problem with "Lab: HTTP request smuggling, basic CL.TE vulnerability"

zinw | Last updated: Aug 12, 2021 03:12PM UTC

Hi. I have problem with "Lab: HTTP request smuggling, basic CL.TE vulnerability", don't know what to do! Burp Community 2021.8, last version with HTTP Request Smuggler extension. What I did. Start lab https://ac021f591eff0519807511bd004c0001.web-security-academy.net/ Run Smuggle probe Get output, see below And I try lot of things...but don't know what to do next. From https://github.com/portswigger/http-request-smuggler 5.If you're using Burp Suite Community, copy the request from the output tab and paste it into the repeater, then complete the 'Target' details on the top right. 6.Right click on the request and select 'Smuggle attack (CL.TE)'. 7.Change the value of the 'prefix' variable to 'G', then click 'Attack' and confirm that one response says 'Unrecognised method GPOST'. By changing the 'prefix' variable in step 7, you can solve all the labs and virtually every real-world scenario. "copy the request from the output tab" What request? This request https://ac021f591eff0519807511bd004c0001.web-security-academy.net ? "then complete the 'Target' details on the top right." Configure target details Host: ac021f591eff0519807511bd004c0001.web-security-academy.net Port: 443 "Right click on the request and select 'Smuggle attack (CL.TE)'" I don't have that? I have this Extension - HTTP Request Smuggler - Smugle probe - HTTP/2 probe - HTTP/2 Tunnel probe TE - HTTP/2 Tunnel probe CL - HTTP/2 hidden probe - HTTP/2 scheme probe - HTTP/2 dual:path probe - HTTP/2 method probe What I'm doin't wrong here? Thanks for your help!!!

Burp then issued the same request, but with a shorter Content-Length, and got a timeout.<br/> This suggests that the front-end system is using the Content-Length header, and the backend is using the Transfer-Encoding: chunked header. You should be able to manually verify this using the Repeater, provided you uncheck the 'Update Content-Length' setting on the top menu. <br/>As such, it may be vulnerable to HTTP Desync attacks, aka Request Smuggling. <br/>To attempt an actual Desync attack, right click on the attached request and choose 'Desync attack'.

Hi Are you sure that you are looking at the basic CL.TE vulnerability lab? Have you tried looking at the written solution or community solution for the lab?

zinw | Last updated: Aug 13, 2021 01:42PM UTC

Yes, I first solve labs by myself. Then, try to solve labs with extension, and I can't manage to figure out how to do that.

Hi again. I find this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GB5DJfZtpBs&ab_channel=Cobalt When I solve lab by hand, I get "Lab: Solved". In that video at 26 min is about automation. Everything works like in video, but I can't get "Lab: Solved", it is "Lab: Not solved". Why is that?
