SwaggerSpy - Automated OSINT On SwaggerHub

By: Zion3R


SwaggerSpy is a tool designed for automated Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) on SwaggerHub. This project aims to streamline the process of gathering intelligence from APIs documented on SwaggerHub, providing valuable insights for security researchers, developers, and IT professionals.


What is Swagger?

Swagger is an open-source framework that allows developers to design, build, document, and consume RESTful web services. It simplifies API development by providing a standard way to describe REST APIs using a JSON or YAML format. Swagger enables developers to create interactive documentation for their APIs, making it easier for both developers and non-developers to understand and use the API.


About SwaggerHub

SwaggerHub is a collaborative platform for designing, building, and managing APIs using the Swagger framework. It offers a centralized repository for API documentation, version control, and collaboration among team members. SwaggerHub simplifies the API development lifecycle by providing a unified platform for API design and testing.


Why OSINT on SwaggerHub?

Performing OSINT on SwaggerHub is crucial because developers, in their pursuit of efficient API documentation and sharing, may inadvertently expose sensitive information. Here are key reasons why OSINT on SwaggerHub is valuable:

  1. Developer Oversights: Developers might unintentionally include secrets, credentials, or sensitive information in API documentation on SwaggerHub. These oversights can lead to security vulnerabilities and unauthorized access if not identified and addressed promptly.

  2. Security Best Practices: OSINT on SwaggerHub helps enforce security best practices. Identifying and rectifying potential security issues early in the development lifecycle is essential to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of APIs.

  3. Preventing Data Leaks: By systematically scanning SwaggerHub for sensitive information, organizations can proactively prevent data leaks. This is especially crucial in today's interconnected digital landscape where APIs play a vital role in data exchange between services.

  4. Risk Mitigation: Understanding that developers might forget to remove or obfuscate sensitive details in API documentation underscores the importance of continuous OSINT on SwaggerHub. This proactive approach mitigates the risk of unintentional exposure of critical information.

  5. Compliance and Privacy: Many industries have stringent compliance requirements regarding the protection of sensitive data. OSINT on SwaggerHub ensures that APIs adhere to these regulations, promoting a culture of compliance and safeguarding user privacy.

  6. Educational Opportunities: Identifying oversights in SwaggerHub documentation provides educational opportunities for developers. It encourages a security-conscious mindset, fostering a culture of awareness and responsible information handling.

By recognizing that developers can inadvertently expose secrets, OSINT on SwaggerHub becomes an integral part of the overall security strategy, safeguarding against potential threats and promoting a secure API ecosystem.


How SwaggerSpy Works

SwaggerSpy obtains information from SwaggerHub and utilizes regular expressions to inspect API documentation for sensitive information, such as secrets and credentials.


Getting Started

To use SwaggerSpy, follow these steps:

  1. Installation: Clone the SwaggerSpy repository and install the required dependencies.
git clone https://github.com/UndeadSec/SwaggerSpy.git

Sncscan - Tool For Analyzing SAP Secure Network Communications (SNC)

By: Zion3R


Tool for analyzing SAP Secure Network Communications (SNC).

How to use?

In its current state, sncscan can be used to read the SNC configurations for SAP Router and DIAG (SAP GUI) connections. The implementation for the SAP RFC protocol is currently in development.


SAP Router

SAP Routers can either support SNC or not, a more granular configuration of the SNC parameters is not possible. Nevertheless, sncscan find out if it is activated:

sncscan -H 10.3.161.4 -S 3299 -p router

DIAG / SAP GUI

The SNC configuration of a DIAG connection used by a SAP GUI can have more versatile settings than the router configuration. A detailled overview of the system parameterss that can be read with sncscan and impact the connections security is in the section Background

sncscan -H 10.3.161.3 -S 3200 -p diag

Multiple targets can be scanned with one command:

sncscan -L /H/192.168.56.101/S/3200,/H/192.168.56.102/S/3206 

Through SAP Router

sncscan --route-string /H/10.3.161.5/S/3299/H/10.3.161.3/S/3200 -p diag

Install

Requirements: Currently the sncscan only works with the pysap libary from our fork.

python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

or

python3 setup.py test
python3 setup.py install

Background: SNC system parameters

SNC Basics

SAP protocols, such as DIAG or RFC, do not provide high security themselves. To increase security and ensure Authentication, Integrity and Encryption, the use of SNC (Secure Network Communications) is required. SNC protects the data communication paths between various client and server components of the SAP system that use the RFC, DIAG or router protocol by applying known cryptographic algorithms to the data in order to increase its security. There are three different levels of data protection, that can be applied for an SNC secured connection:

  1. Authentication only: Verifies the identity of the communication partners
  2. Integrity protection: Protection against manipulation of the data
  3. Confidentiality protection: Encrypts the transmitted messages

SNC Parameter

Each SAP system can be configured with SNC parameters for the communication security. The level of the SNC connection is determined by the Quality of Protection parameters:

  • snc/data_protection/min: Minimum security level required for SNC connections.
  • snc/data_protection/max: highest security level, initiated by the SAP system
  • snc/data_protection/use: default security level, initiated from the SAP system

Additional SNC parameters can be used for further system-specific configuration options, including the snc/only_encrypted_gui parameter, which ensures that encrypted SAPGUI connections are enforced.

Reading out SNC Parameters

As long as a SAP System is addressed that is capable of sending SNC messages, it also responds to valid SNC requests, regardless of which IP, port, and CN were specified for SNC. This response contains the requirements that the SAP system has for the SNC connection, which can then be used to obtain the SNC parameters. This can be used to find out whether an SAP system has SNC enabled and, if so, which SNC parameters have been set.



PPLcontrol - Controlling Windows PP(L)s

By: Zion3R


This tool allows you to list protected processes, get the protection level of a specific process, or set an arbitrary protection level. For more information, you can read this blog post: Debugging Protected Processes.


Usage

1. Download the MSI driver

You can get a copy of the MSI driver RTCore64.sys here: PPLKiller/driver.

2. Install the MSI driver

Disclaimer: it goes without saying that you should never install this driver on your host machine. Use a VM!

sc.exe create RTCore64 type= kernel start= auto binPath= C:\PATH\TO\RTCore64.sys DisplayName= "Micro - Star MSI Afterburner"
net start RTCore64

3. Use PPLcontrol

List protected processes.

PPLcontrol.exe list

Get the protection level of a specific process.

PPLcontrol.exe get 1234

Set an arbitrary protection level.

PPLcontrol.exe set 1234 PPL WinTcb

Protect a non-protected process with an arbitrary protection level. This will also automatically adjust the signature levels accordingly.

PPLcontrol.exe protect 1234 PPL WinTcb

Unprotect a protected process. This will set the protection level to 0 (i.e. None) and the EXE/DLL signature levels to 0 (i.e. Unchecked).

PPLcontrol.exe unprotect 1234

4. Uninstall the driver

net stop RTCore64
sc.exe delete RTCore64

Use cases

Debugging a protected process with WinDbg

WinDbg just needs to open the target process, so you can use PPLcontrol to set an arbitrary protection level on your windbg.exe process.

  1. Get the PID of the windbg.exe process.
  2. Use PPLcontrol to set an arbitrary protection level.
Console 1 24,840 K C:\Temp>PPLcontrol.exe protect 1232 PPL WinTcb [+] The Protection 'PPL-WinTcb' was set on the process with PID 1232, previous protection was: 'None-None'. [+] The Signature level 'WindowsTcb' and the Section signature level 'Windows' were set on the process with PID 1232." dir="auto">
C:\Temp>tasklist | findstr /i windbg
windbg.exe 1232 Console 1 24,840 K
C:\Temp>PPLcontrol.exe protect 1232 PPL WinTcb
[+] The Protection 'PPL-WinTcb' was set on the process with PID 1232, previous protection was: 'None-None'.
[+] The Signature level 'WindowsTcb' and the Section signature level 'Windows' were set on the process with PID 1232.

Inspecting a protected process with API Monitor

In addition to opening the target process, API monitor injects a DLL into it. Therefore, setting an arbitrary protection level on your apimonitor.exe process won't suffice. Since the injected DLL is not properly signed for this purpose, the Section signature flag of the target process will likely prevent it from being loaded. However, you can temporarily disable the protection on the target process, start monitoring it, and restore the protection right after.

Failed to load module in target process - Error: 577, Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source.
  1. Get the PID of the target process.
  2. Use PPLcontrol to get the protection level of the target process.
  3. Unprotect the process.
  4. Start monitoring the process with API Monitor.
  5. Restore the protection of the target process.
C:\Temp>tasklist | findstr /i target
target.exe 1337 Services 1 14,160 K
C:\Temp>PPLcontrol.exe get 1337
[+] The process with PID 1337 is a PPL with the Signer type 'WinTcb' (6).
C:\Temp>PPLcontrol.exe unprotect 1337
[+] The process with PID 1337 is no longer a PP(L).

C:\Temp>PPLcontrol.exe protect 1337 PPL WinTcb
[+] The Protection 'PPL-WinTcb' was set on the process with PID 1337, previous protection was: 'None-None'.
[+] The Signature level 'WindowsTcb' and the Section signature level 'Windows' were set on the process with PID 1337.

Build

  1. Open the solution in Visual Studio.
  2. Select Release/x64 (x86 is not supported and will probably never be).
  3. Build solution
