## Goal

Deny all requests to `wp-admin/load-scripts.php` and `wp-admin/load-styles.php` by Nginx.

## Why?

- [How to DoS 29% of the World Wide Websites - CVE-2018-6389 ](https://baraktawily.blogspot.com/2018/02/how-to-dos-29-of-world-wide-websites.html)

**TL;DR**

> it [WordPress] will use load-scripts.php (for JS) or load-styles.php (for CSS files) and the browser will get multiple JS/CSS files through a single request- so performance-wise it is better to do so and the page will load faster. This feature was designed only for the admin pages, but is also used on the wp-login.php page, so no authentication is enforced on these files.

```
# for example
https://example.com/wp/wp-admin/load-scripts.php?c=1&load[]=jquery-ui-core,iris,wp-color-picker,dashboard,list-revision,media-grid,media,image-edit,set-post-thumbnail,nav-menu,custom-header,custom-background,media-gallery,svg-painter,wp-fullscreen-stu,wp-ajax-response,wp-api-request,wp-pointer,autosave,heartbeat,wp-auth-check

# same goes to https://example.com/wp/wp-admin/load-styles.php
```

A single request (no authentication required) could cause the server to perform >180 IO reads and concatenate all the files into a >4MB response. For small servers without proper firewalls and rate-limiting, this is enough to perform DoS attacks.

## Mitigation

> 1. You should really use HTTPS. If you don’t, you shouldn’t have a web site in the first place.
> 2. When you use HTTPS, there’s no reason to not use HTTP/2.
> 3. With HTTP/2, there’s no need to concatenate your files. It is actually an anti-pattern.

- Tell WordPress not to use concatenation of JS and CSS files
- Deny all requests to `load-scripts.php` and `load-styles.php`

## Why Not?

- [All the comments from otto4242 in this reddit thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/Wordpress/comments/7vedxb/cve20186389_dos_flaw_in_wordpress_sites/)
- [wfalaa's (Wordfence author) comments in this wp.org thread](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-wordfence-patch-dos-issue-cve-2018-6389-automatically/#post-9947825)

## Requirements

- Trellis [17c26fc](https://github.com/roots/trellis/commit/17c26fc9eb5fe0d427195124e8adc91a73380503) or later
- Ansible v2.6 or later

## Installation

### Trellis

Add this role to `requirements.yml`:

```yaml
# requirements.yml

- src: https://github.com/ItinerisLtd/trellis-cve-2018-6389
  version: 0.1.0 # Check for latest version!
```

Run the command:

```bash
➜ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml --force
```

Add the role into `dev.yml` and `server.yml`, immediately after `role: wordpress-setup`:

```yaml
roles:
  # some other Trellis roles ...
  - { role: wordpress-setup, tags: [wordpress, wordpress-setup, letsencrypt] }
  - { role: trellis-cve-2018-6389, tags: [nginx, wordpress, wordpress-setup] }
  # some other Trellis roles ...
```

Then, re-provision as usual:

```bash
# https://roots.io/trellis/docs/local-development-setup/
➜ vagrant reload --provision

# https://roots.io/trellis/docs/remote-server-setup/
➜ ansible-playbook server.yml -e env=<environment>
```

### WordPress

Disable concatenation:

```php
# config/application.php OR wp-config.php OR equivalent

# normal OR outdated Bedrock:
define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);

# Bedrock with roots/wp-config:
Config::define('CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS', false);
```

Then, deploy as usual:

```bash
# https://roots.io/trellis/docs/deploys/
➜ ./bin/deploy.sh <environment> <domain>

# or alternatively
➜ ansible-playbook deploy.yml -e "site=<domain> env=<environment>"
```

## FAQs

### Can I use this on managed hosting?

No, you can't use this on managed hosting such as [Kinsta](http://bit.ly/kinsta-com) or [WP Engine](https://typist.tech/go/wp-engine).

It's the hosting company's job to mitigate this kind of attacks.
