Serverless Technology (Functions as a Service) is fast becoming the next "big thing" in the world of distributed applications. Organizations are investing a great deal of resources in this technology as a force-multiplier, cost-saver and ops-simplification cure-all. Especially with widespread support from cloud vendors, this technology is going to only become more influential. However, like everything else, Serverless apps are subject to a a wide variety of attack possibilities, ranging from attacks against access control tech like Function Event Injection, JWTs, to NoSQL Injection, to exploits against the apps themselves (deserialization, etc) escalating privileges to other cloud component. On the other hand GraphQL (API Query Language) is the natural companion to serverless apps, where traditional REST APIs are replaced with GraphQL to provide greater flexibility, greater query parameterization and speed. GraphQL is slowly negating the need for REST APIs from being developed. Combined with Serverless tech/Reactive Front-end frameworks, GraphQL is very powerful for distributed apps. However, GraphQL can be abused with a variety of attacks including but not limited to Injection Attacks, Nested Resource Exhaustion attacks, Authorization Flaws among others. This talk presents a red-team perspective of the various ways in which testers can discover and exploit serverless and/or GraphQL driven applications to compromise sensitive information, and gain a deeper foothold into database services, IAM services and other other cloud components. The talk will have some demos that will demonstrate practical attacks and attack possibilities against Serverless and GraphQL applications.

- 57. abhaybhargav Attacker’s View of FaaS
- 58. abhaybhargav Routes to FaaS pwnage! • Attacking Function (and cloud provider) through non-API Gateway Events • Attacking Function (and Cloud Provider) through API (Web Services Attacks) • Identifying Vulnerabilities with IAM and Privileges => Elevation of Privs • Information Disclosure => Database Access, etc • Denial of Service Copyright - we45, 2018
- 59. abhaybhargav Function Data Event Injection
- 60. abhaybhargav What is Event Injection? • Injection Attacks triggered through Third party event notifications • Example: • File Uploaded to S3 • Message sent over Notification Service • Message received on Queue • DynamoDB Stream Events, • etc Copyright - we45, 2018
- 61. abhaybhargav Function Data Event Injection • Injection is back!! • Multiple Possibilities with Functions: • Insecure Deserialization • XXE • SQL Injection • NoSQL Injection • Server-Side Request Forgery • Template Injection
- 62. abhaybhargav Function Data Event Injection - Sources Command Injection SQL/NoSQL Injection Insecure Deserialization XXE
- 63. abhaybhargav Case Study User uploads XML laced with malware File Stores in Amazon S3 Notification triggers function Function reads uploaded file, XXE executes Attacker gains access
- 65. abhaybhargav Challenges - Function Data Event Injection • Hard to test for => Execution is largely Out-of-Band • Hard to Protect with WAFs (other Network Security) => Several non-HTTP Protocols can be used to trigger this • Wide variety of execution scenarios
- 66. abhaybhargav Privilege Escalation - IAM Misconfiguration
- 67. abhaybhargav IAM & Other Misconfigurations • Permissions are often the greatest bugbear in a FaaS implementation • Devs tend to provide overly permissive capabilities for resources that interact with FaaS implementations • Permissions are usually set in cloud IAM environments with Policies, Roles, etc • This includes misconfigurations like Public S3 buckets and access to all DynamoDB tables, etc
- 68. abhaybhargav Examples of IAM - Effect: Allow Action: - 'dynamodb:*' Resource: - 'arn:aws:dynamodb:us-east-1:****************:table/TABLE_NAME' Allows ALL actions on a DynamoDB Table - Effect: Allow Action: - dynamodb:PutItem Resource: 'arn:aws:dynamodb:us-east-1:****************:table/TABLE_NAME' Only PUT allowed on Table
- 69. abhaybhargav DynamoDB Injection client.scan(TableName = 'dynamo-user', Select = 'ALL_ATTRIBUTES', ScanFilter = { 'first_name': {"AttributeValueList": [{"S": "Joe"}], "ComparisonOperator": "EQ"} }) Standard “scan” with DynamoDBEQ|NE|IN|LE|LT|GE|GT|BETWEEN| NOT_NULL|NULL|CONTAINS| NOT_CONTAINS|BEGINS_WITH client.scan(TableName = 'dynamo-user', Select = 'ALL_ATTRIBUTES', ScanFilter = {'first_name': {"AttributeValueList": [{"S": "*"}], "ComparisonOperator": "GT"}}) Equivalent of ‘OR 1=1, Retrieves all values from the Table
- 71. abhaybhargav Other Weaknesses • Authorization Weaknesses especially with JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) • Denial of Service Attacks based on Library weaknesses • Dynamic Testing is a major challenge for Serverless Functions • SAST/SCA becomes the way to go.
