Same Origin Method Execution (SOME) - Exploiting a Callback for Same Origin Policy Bypass

Talkat Black Hat Europe 2014 · 2014-10-14..10-17· [web-platform, security]
slides:none on file

A new exploit abuses JSONP callback parameters to execute methods inside a same-origin page by opening timed windows/frames, controlling the callback name (restricted to alpha-numeric+dot) and chaining actions like selectAll() then sendPhotos() to exfiltrate Google+ auto-backed-up photos to an attacker site. It bypasses X-Frame-Options, common CSP uses and many popup blockers, requires no click interaction, and makes any page on a domain vulnerable once one JSONP endpoint is exploitable. Reported to Google and paid (~$3k) as a high-impact bug.
