This attack usually occurs through a vulnerable function in a web application, such as an "import from URL" feature, a proxy service, or a "webhook" callback.
If successful, the attacker gains the identity of the server.
[profile2] aws_access_key_id = YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID_2 aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY_2
The payload targets the AWS CLI configuration file located at ~/.aws/credentials . This file typically contains: aws_access_key_id aws_secret_access_key aws_session_token (if using temporary credentials) callback-url-file-3A-2F-2F-2Fhome-2F-2A-2F.aws-2Fcredentials
If your goal is to trigger a "post" action after a manual approval or external task, you can use with a .waitForTaskToken callback.
Understanding callback-url-file-3A-2F-2F-2Fhome-2F-2A-2F.aws-2Fcredentials in SSRF Attacks
The callback-url-file-3A-2F-2F-2Fhome-2F-2A-2F.aws-2Fcredentials might seem like a mysterious and intimidating URL, but it's simply a callback or redirect used during AWS authentication processes. By understanding the anatomy of the URL, the role of the AWS credentials file, and the significance of the callback URL, you can better navigate the complex world of AWS authentication. This attack usually occurs through a vulnerable function
If you have found this pattern in your own applications or logs, treat it as an active security incident. For further reading, consult the OWASP SSRF prevention cheat sheet and AWS security best practices.
chmod 600 ~/.aws/credentials
The string is URL-encoded. Let’s break it down step by step: If you have found this pattern in your
The subject line raises several red flags:
Even without explicit globbing, some URI libraries automatically expand ~ (tilde) to the user’s home directory. The * might be passed directly to a filesystem API that interprets it as a wildcard. This is a classic sign of a directory traversal attack on steroids.
