Lab Walkthrough Video:


Amazon DynamoDB is a NoSQL Database which supports key-value and document store. In this lab exercise, a DynamoDB endpoint is running on the target machine.

Objective:  Interact with the DynamoDB endpoint and perform the following tasks:

  1. List all the tables stored on the DynamoDB server.
  2. Find out the number of items stored in the table "users"?
  3. Find out the UserId of user "Amber Patrick"?
  4. Find out the name of the product which has ProductID '9'?
  5. Add an item in the "products" table with an XSS payload specified in the description attribute.
  6. Modify an item in the "products" table and inject an XSS payload in the description of the product.
  7. Perform a batch operation and inject XSS payload in the description of any 3 products.

This lab has been created using Dynalite which is an implementation of Amazon's DynamoDB built on LevelDB.

Instructions: 

  • This lab is dedicated to you! No other users are on this network :) 
  • Once you start the lab, you will have access to a Ubuntu instance.
  • Your Ubuntu Instance has an interface with IP address 192.X.Y.2. Run "ip addr" to know the values of X and Y.
  • The DynamoDB local endpoint should be running on port 4567 on the machine located at the IP address 192.X.Y.3.
  • Do not attack the gateway located at IP address 192.X.Y.1


Verify:
1. Find out the number of items stored in the table 'users'?
 
2. Find out the UserId of user 'Amber Patrick'?
 
3. Find out the name of the product which has ProductID '9'?

Technical Support for this Lab:

There is a reason we provide unlimited lab time: you can take as much time as you need to solve a lab. However, we realize that sometimes hints might be necessary to keep you motivated!

We currently provide technical support limited to:

  • Giving hints for a lab exercise
  • In rare circumstances, if you have totally given up (NO!!!) then tell you how to solve it. This will be limited to sharing the solution video or lab report
  • A lab exercise fails to load or has errors in it

If you need technical support, please email  attackdefense@pentesteracademy.com  clearly mention the name and link of the lab exercise and other essential details. The more descriptive you are, the faster we can help you. We will get back to you within 24 hours or less.
