> **⚠️ AUTHORIZED USE ONLY**
> This skill is for educational purposes or authorized security assessments only.
> You must have explicit, written permission from the system owner before using this tool.
> Misuse of this tool is illegal and strictly prohibited.
> **Mandatory confirmation gate**
> Before running any command that probes, exploits, changes, persists on, extracts data from, or attempts credential access against a target:
> 1. Ask the user to state the exact target URL, IP, account, or resource.
> 2. Ask the user to confirm written authorization and the permitted scope.
> 3. Show the exact command(s) and explain their expected effect.
> 4. Wait for explicit confirmation in the current conversation.
>
> Without that confirmation, remain read-only and provide defensive guidance only. Prefer a sandbox, disposable VM, or controlled lab.
# API 安全测试
## When to Use
- An authorized assessment covers API endpoints and you need a structured discovery-to-report workflow.
- Testing API authentication, authorization, or rate-limiting behavior within an approved scope.
## 适用场景
- REST API 安全测试(OpenAPI/Swagger 驱动或盲测)
- GraphQL 安全审计(内省、批查询、别名过载)
- WebSocket 安全测试
- JWT / OAuth 2.0 认证测试
- BOLA/IDOR/BFLA 授权漏洞检测
- API 限速绕过与 DoS 测试
## 10 阶段测试流程
### Phase 1: API 发现与侦察
```text
主动发现:
□ Vespasian: 无头浏览器爬取 → 自动生成 OpenAPI 3.0 / GraphQL SDL 规范
□ Entropy --discover: 从 robots.txt + JS 文件提取端点
□ Kiterunner / ffuf: 爆破未文档化的端点路径
□ 检查常见路径: /swagger.json, /openapi.json, /graphql, /api-docs
GraphQL 内省(三级尝试):
1. 标准内省查询
2. 精简查询(绕过 WAF 全量封禁)
3. 仅查 __schema { types { name } }(最小探测)
```
### Phase 2: 认证测试
```text
JWT 分析(jwt_tool / Burp):
□ alg:none 攻击: 修改头部为 "alg":"none",清空签名
□ 密钥混淆: RS256 公钥 → HS256 对称密钥
□ 弱 HMAC 密钥爆破: jwt_tool -C -d wordlist.txt
□ 过期/声明篡改: 修改 exp/iat/sub/role 声明
□ kid 注入: ../../etc/passwd → HMAC 签名绕过
OAuth 2.0:
□ redirect_uri 操控 → 授权码泄漏
□ CSRF via state 参数缺失
□ Token 在 Referer 头泄漏
□ PKCE 缺失检测
GraphQL 认证:
□ mutation 通过 GET 请求绕过认证(CSRF)
□ 批查询认证绕过
```
### Phase 3: 授权测试(BOLA/IDOR/BFLA)
```text
BOLA(对象级授权绕过):
□ 遍历数字 ID: /user/1 → /user/2 → /user/3
□ 遍历 UUID
□ 遍历用户名/邮箱
□ Burp Autorize: 双会话重放对比
BFLA(功能级授权绕过):
□ 普通用户执行管理员 API
□ HTTP 方法切换: GET → PUT → PATCH → DELETE
□ API 版本降级: /v2/admin → /v1/admin
□ 批量操作注入: {"users": [1,2,3]} → {"users": [1,2,3,admin_id]}
工具: Burp Autorize, AuthMatrix, Entropy (malicious_insider persona)
```
### Phase 4: GraphQL 专项
```text
内省泄漏 → 信息暴露检测
别名过载 → 100+ 别名 DoS
批查询 → 10+ 同时查询 DoS
字段重复 → __typename × 500
指令过载 → 递归 @skip/@include
循环查询 → 深度嵌套内省递归
字段建议 → 错误消息信息泄漏
GraphiQL/Playground 暴露 → IDE 公开风险
GET 突变 → CSRF 风险
追踪/调试模式 → 元数据泄漏
工具: FireTail, Escape DAST, api.sh (Phases 1-3)
```
### Phase 5: REST 输入验证
```text
□ HTTP 方法切换: GET→POST→PUT→DELETE→OPTIONS→PATCH
□ Content-Type 篡改: JSON→XML→multipart
□ NoSQL 注入: {"username": {"$gt": ""}}
□ SSRF via URL 参数: webhook URL/头像 URL/导入 URL
□ XXE in XML 端点
□ 参数污染: /api?role=user&role=admin
□ 批量赋值: 向请求体添加 is_admin: true
```
### Phase 6: 业务逻辑与差分测试
```text
□ Entropy compare: diff v1 vs v2 API → 状态码变化/字段删除/延迟回归
□ 多角色工作流测试: admin/user/readonly 权限矩阵
□ 优惠券/积分/价格操控
□ 竞态条件: 并发请求测试 TOCTOU
```
### Phase 7: WebSocket 测试
```text
□ 端点发现
□ 消息注入(注入 payload、原型污染)
□ 超大消息处理
□ 类型混淆
□ 跨站点 WebSocket 劫持(CSWH)
```
### Phase 8: 限速与 DoS
```text
□ 限速绕过 via 头部: X-Forwarded-For, X-Real-IP
□ 路径变体: /api/ → /api → /Api/ → /API/
□ Slowloris 低带宽耗尽
□ GraphQL 批查询深度嵌套 DoS
□ IP 轮换测试(ProxyCat 代理池)
```
### Phase 9: 数据暴露
```text
□ 响应过度暴露: 对比 API 返回 vs UI 展示
□ 分页枚举: ?page=1&limit=10000
□ 错误消息信息泄漏: 堆栈跟踪/内部路径/SQL 错误
□ GraphQL 嵌套遍历访问越权数据
□ OpenAPI 规范暴露敏感端点
```
### Phase 10: CI/CD 集成
```text
□ Entropy --ci --watch: spec 变更时自动重跑
□ Escape DAST: 按严重度阈值自动阻断构建
□ 发现持久化为回归测试
□ StackHawk(开发者优先、ZAP 内核)
```

## 任务完成自检(声称完成前 MUST 通过)
- [ ] 我是否执行了工作流中的每一步(而不是只阅读)?
- [ ] 我是否基于 `tool-index` 使用了真实工具路径?
- [ ] 我是否产出了可复现证据(命令/脚本/截图/报告)?
- [ ] 我是否完成并回写了 RULES 要求的 Checklist 项?
## Limitations
- Only run against APIs you are explicitly authorized to test.
- Some checks are intrusive; prefer non-production mirrors when available.
