Summary

Stored XSS Leading to Account Takeover

Details

The Exploit Chain: 1.Upload: The attacker uploads an .html file containing a JavaScript payload. 2.Execution: A logged-in administrator is tricked into visiting the URL of this uploaded file. 3.Token Refresh: The JavaScript payload makes a fetch request to the /system/api/refreshAccessToken endpoint. Because the administrator is logged in, their browser automatically attaches the haxcms_refresh_token cookie to this request. 4.JWT Theft: The server validates the refresh token and responds with a new, valid JWT access token in the JSON response. 5.Exfiltration: The JavaScript captures this new JWT from the response and sends it to an attacker-controlled server. 6.Account Takeover: The attacker now possesses a valid administrator JWT and can take full control of the application.
