Redis Configuration File Exposure

Redis Configuration File Exposure

Redis configuration file (redis.conf) was exposed.

Security Misconfiguration (SM)

"The Redis configuration file (redis.conf) was found at the specified URL. This file contains sensitive information such as server binding, protected mode settings, and port configuration."

"The Redis configuration file (redis.conf) was found at the specified URL. This file contains sensitive information such as server binding, protected mode settings, and port configuration."

Impact of the vulnerability

How this template works

APIs Selection

The API selection filters in this template specify the criteria for selecting the API to be tested. In this case, the filters include the response code range (between 200 and 299) and the extraction of the URL from the response to be used in the subsequent request.

Execute request

The execute section defines the type of request to be executed. In this template, a single request is made to modify the URL by appending "/redis.conf" to it. This request aims to access the Redis configuration file.

Validation

The validation section specifies the conditions that need to be met for the response to be considered valid. In this template, the response code should be 200, the response payload should contain specific keywords related to the Redis configuration file, and the response headers should contain the value "application/octet-stream". These validations ensure that the Redis configuration file is successfully accessed and contains the expected information.
