Title: Following The JSON Path: A Road Paved in RCE
Dive into researching JavaScript implementations of JSON path libraries, breaking out of JavaScript sandboxes, achieving code execution, and examining the blast radius of impacted components. This talk covers both the research process for the discovery of these novel vulnerabilities and footguns, as well as the process for identifying the blast radius, weaponizing the vulnerabilities against actual targets, and engaging impacted stakeholders. Join me to hear a harrowing tale of remote code execution in several widely used products, CVE assignments, and critical bounty payouts.
