Vuejs Serverside Template Xss

Overview

This product analysis discusses a repository that demonstrates the vulnerability of web apps using both server-side rendering and Vue.js to XSS attacks. The repository includes a vulnerable PHP script, as well as fixed versions of the script. The analysis provides a walkthrough of how to exploit the vulnerability, how to fix it, and discusses the scope and impact of such a vulnerability.

Features

• Demonstrates the vulnerability of web apps using server-side rendering and Vue.js to XSS attacks
• Includes a vulnerable PHP script (index.php) and fixed versions of the script (fix-v-pre.php and fix-servervars-global.php)
• Provides a walkthrough on how to exploit the vulnerability and how to fix it
• Discusses the scope and impact of the vulnerability

Installation

To run the demo, follow these steps:

1. Install Docker and Docker Compose.
2. Run the demo.
3. Open http://localhost:8080 in your browser.

If you prefer not to use Docker, you can host the index.php file on a PHP capable server. However, keep in mind that this file is deliberately vulnerable to XSS attacks, so it should only be run on a local environment.
