Yes, as we were able to download the database for CoCCA's web application (from the box.com backups) for any of the ccTLDs managed by CoCCA, we could decrypt the admin hash and then login to the CoCCA administration panel and modify/transfer any domain inside a ccTLD's zone.


The scale of possibilities with this hack are enormous. You could easily redirect entire domains, generate valid SSL certs for those domains, then capture all the data including all login credentials for all users on those domains.

With exploitation of the right domains you would probably be able to extend this hack using stolen authentication information to take over basically the entire Internet.

Funny hack of my own once: a major web hosting company had a forum which failed to check uploaded profile pics were images, so I used it to upload a script so I could browse their entire filesystem. I eventually came across their root password stored in plaintext in a configuration file. The password? "internet" - all lowercase, just like that.


I kinda think these vulnerabilities were long exploited but no one made the move to actually make any harm is because 1) not profitable for private parties 2) state actors are waiting for a proper time to execute


> We spent a significant amount of time on Google's registry software and discovered an endpoint that we believe are not supposed to be accessed without authentication

Can you send me info on this to mcilwain@google.com ? Thanks.


Out of curiosity, at what point is this considered hacking? Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble with the law by accessing servers like this, downloading data, etc?


I prefer bashupload.com or transfer.sh for this. Both alternatives have worked well for me.

Alternatively, you can check out magic wormhole (for a more secure transfer of files between two terminals): https://magic-wormhole.readthedocs.io/en/latest/welcome.html...


I didn't know about https://bashupload.com. Thanks for mentioning it.

There is also https://chunk.io/ in the https://transfer.sh category. It requires free registration by emailing the owner. It has some interesting features, like uploading multiple files in one HTTP request and syntax highlighting for source code. Files are associated with your account, so you can delete them without a per-file token and list them.

https://github.com/schollz/croc is like Magic Wormhole but can send multiple files and resume transfers. It is written in Go. It releases official static binaries, including for Free/Net/OpenBSD. (Magic Wormhole has alternative implementations with static binaries: https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william, https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole.rs.)


Came here just to sing the praises of croc myself. To be fair, it and Magic Wormhole are for different use-cases than 0x0 seems to be, one-time transfers of files between friends, basically. For posting things that should be available for multiple downloads by multiple people, it seems like torrents or IPFS would be reasonable choices.


I switched from a self-hosted transfer.sh instance to a selfhosted ffsend instance with r2 backend. Quality is much higher, easy to run on docker and its end-to-end encrypted. With the cli tools you can easily upload files from command line.

There are sone public instances too:

https://gitlab.com/timvisee/send-instances


Huh, I have been thinking about setting up a file upload service for myself and didn't even remember Send. What a shame. I should consider it.

I have found two different options worth sharing: https://github.com/orhun/rustypaste (very lean and minimal) and https://github.com/9001/copyparty (someone's pet megaproject with features from WebDAV to a tracker music player).


I thought of self-hosting this (it's fantastic, by the way), but why do that when there are public instances? Feels like too much work for little benefit.


transfer.sh looks amazing (i was recently looking into self hosting a wetransfer alternative) - how can such a service be free and unlimited? I may cancel my WeTransfer subscription right away, unless there is anything else to consider? 2 weeks is fine for my purposes.


I wish some magic-wormhole implementation came pre-installed on every major platform. When sharing files with others, getting the other side to install it is still a hurdle.

There's not really much user interaction required. You just have to engage the victims cell phone when sending the OTP. The voicemail hack doesn't require any user interaction.
