Bypass WAFs by Shortening IP Address (by 0xInfection)

IP addresses can be shortened by dropping the zeroes:

http://1.0.0.1 → http://1.1
http://127.0.0.1 → http://127.1
http://192.168.0.1 → http://192.168.1

http://0xC0A80001 or http://3232235521 → 192.168.0.1
http://192.168.257 → 192.168.1.1
http://192.168.516 → 192.168.2.4

This bypasses WAF filters for SSRF, open-redirect, etc where any IP as input gets blacklisted.

For more information please see How to Obscure Any URL and Magic IP Address Shortcuts.

Shell Tricks ^[TOC]

When you get a shell, it is generally not very clean, but after following these steps, you will have a fairly clean and comfortable shell to work with.

script /dev/null -c bash
Ctrl-Z (to send it to background)
stty raw -echo; fg (returns the shell to foreground)
reset (to reset terminal)
xterm (when asked for terminal type)
export TERM=xterm; export SHELL=bash

Shell functions ^[TOC]

Domain resolve

# Dependencies:
#   - curl
#   - jq

function DomainResolve() {

  local _host="$1"

  local _curl_base="curl --request GET"
  local _timeout="15"

  _host_ip=$($_curl_base -ks -m "$_timeout" "https://dns.google.com/resolve?name=${_host}&type=A" | \
  jq '.Answer[0].data' | tr -d "\"" 2>/dev/null)

  if [[ -z "$_host_ip" ]] || [[ "$_host_ip" == "null" ]] ; then

    echo -en "Unsuccessful domain name resolution.\\n"

  else

    echo -en "$_host > $_host_ip\\n"

  fi

}

Example:

shell> DomainResolve nmap.org
nmap.org > 45.33.49.119

shell> DomainResolve nmap.org
Unsuccessful domain name resolution.

Get ASN

# Dependencies:
#   - curl

function GetASN() {

  local _ip="$1"

  local _curl_base="curl --request GET"
  local _timeout="15"

  _asn=$($_curl_base -ks -m "$_timeout" "http://ip-api.com/line/${_ip}?fields=as")

  _state=$(echo $?)

  if [[ -z "$_ip" ]] || [[ "$_ip" == "null" ]] || [[ "$_state" -ne 0 ]]; then

    echo -en "Unsuccessful ASN gathering.\\n"

  else

    echo -en "$_ip > $_asn\\n"

  fi

}

Example:

shell> GetASN 1.1.1.1
1.1.1.1 > AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc.

shell> GetASN 0.0.0.0
