# API Reference: Web Cache Deception Attack
|
|
|
|
## Attack Technique
|
|
|
|
| Step | Action | Description |
|
|
|------|--------|-------------|
|
|
| 1 | Identify authenticated endpoint | Find URL returning personalized content |
|
|
| 2 | Append static extension | `/account/nonexistent.css` |
|
|
| 3 | CDN caches response | Proxy treats as static file |
|
|
| 4 | Access cached URL unauthenticated | Receive victim's personalized data |
|
|
|
|
## Static Extensions to Test
|
|
|
|
| Extension | Type | Cache Likelihood |
|
|
|-----------|------|-----------------|
|
|
| `.css` | Stylesheet | Very High |
|
|
| `.js` | JavaScript | Very High |
|
|
| `.png`, `.jpg`, `.gif` | Image | High |
|
|
| `.woff`, `.woff2` | Font | High |
|
|
| `.pdf` | Document | Medium |
|
|
| `.ico` | Icon | Medium |
|
|
|
|
## Cache Detection Headers
|
|
|
|
| Header | Cached Indicators |
|
|
|--------|------------------|
|
|
| `X-Cache` | HIT |
|
|
| `CF-Cache-Status` | HIT (Cloudflare) |
|
|
| `X-Cache-Status` | HIT (Nginx proxy_cache) |
|
|
| `Age` | Non-zero value |
|
|
| `X-Varnish` | Two IDs = cache hit |
|
|
|
|
## Path Delimiter Confusion
|
|
|
|
| Delimiter | URL Example |
|
|
|-----------|-------------|
|
|
| `;` | `/account;test.css` |
|
|
| `%23` | `/account%23test.css` |
|
|
| `%3f` | `/account%3ftest.css` |
|
|
|
|
## Mitigation
|
|
|
|
| Control | Description |
|
|
|---------|-------------|
|
|
| `Cache-Control: no-store` | Prevent caching of authenticated pages |
|
|
| Validate file extension | Only cache actual static files |
|
|
| `Vary: Cookie` | Separate cache by session |
|
|
|
|
## Python Libraries
|
|
|
|
| Library | Version | Purpose |
|
|
|---------|---------|---------|
|
|
| `requests` | >=2.28 | HTTP requests with/without auth |
|
|
