Description

Explaining how to exploit CVE-2023-30861 

介绍

# Intro
This bug happens because Flask doesn't tell the caching server (proxy) to be careful with sensitive information like cookies.

To use this attack you have to check your checklist
- **User** must use a proxy and accesses the flask webapp
- **Proxy** must be caching proxy (caching server).
- **Flask** version of the targeted flask website that user uses must be before `2.2.5`
- **Attacker** must have access to the caching proxy of the proxy that **User** uses 

**Why the proxy?**

A caching proxy is like a helper that stores copies of web pages to make them load faster when you visit them again.
- Chat-GPT

Using this type of proxies to access any website runs on `Flask < 2.2.5` makes the proxy server stores your cockies for fast load, because the proxy doesn't know it's a sensitve data, because `Flask` didn't tell the proxy server it's a sensitve data.


**The imapct of this attack**

This attack could allow the attacker to steal sensitive information like user session cookies.


# PoC
First I want you to host this code to anywhere you like:

```python
from flask import Flask, session

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['SESSION_PERMANENT'] = True
#app.config['SESSION_REFRESH_EACH_REQUEST'] = True

@app.route('/')
def index():
    session['user_id'] = 1
    return 'CVE-2023-30861!'

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

```

This code is a simple `Flask` website, remember the version must be `< 2.2.5`.
Now access this website with via caching proxy that you have access to and wait for another user to access same website with the same proxy.
after that you will get that user session from cache.
