XORpass is an encoder to bypass WAF filters using XOR operations.
git clone https://github.com/devploit/XORpass
cd XORpass
$ python3 xorpass.py -h
Using clear PHP function:
Using XOR bypass of that function:
$ python3 xorpass.py -e "system(ls)"The ^ is the exclusive or operator, which means that we're in reality working with binary values. So lets break down what happens.
The XOR operator on binary values will return 1 where just one of the bits were 1, otherwise it returns 0 (0^0 = 0, 0^1 = 1, 1^0 = 1, 1^1 = 0). When you use XOR on characters, you're using their ASCII values. These ASCII values are integers, so we need to convert those to binary to see what's actually going on.
A = 65 = 1000001
S = 83 = 1010011
B = 66 = 1000010
A 1000001
^
S 1010011
^
B 1000010
----------------
result 1010000 = 80 = P
A^S^B = P
If we do an 'echo "A"^"S"^"B";' PHP will return us a P as we see.
