    + + + + Description + +
    +
    +
    + Many web applications check URL access rights before rendering protected links and buttons. However, applications need to perform similar access control checks each time these pages are accessed, or attackers will be able to forge URLs to access these hidden pages anyway. +
    +
    +

    + + + + Bug + +
    +
    +
    +

    + Rails provides the ability to apply before_filter(s) which run prior to rendering content to the user. This is helpful when restricting access to content based on the user's role. Currently, the methods to apply a before_filter already exist in the application controller but were forgotten when creating the administrative functionality. Notice an asbsence of the before_filter within app/controllers/admin_controller.rb +

    + 
    +        <%= %q{
+        class AdminController < ApplicationController
+        
+          skip_before_filter :has_info
+        } %>
+
    + +
    +
    +
    +
    +
    + + + + Solution + +
    +
    +
    +

    Failure to Restrict URL Access - ATTACK

    +

    + Request the following URL /admin/1/dashboard and have fun :-) +

    +

    Failure to Restrict URL Access - SOLUTION

    +

    + The code is already available to restrict access to the admin controller by role within app/controllers/application_controller.rb: +

    + 
    +        helper_method :current_user, :is_admin?
+        
+        def is_admin?
+            current_user.admin if current_user 
+          end
+      
+          def administrative
+            if not is_admin?
+             reset_session
+             redirect_to root_url
+           end
+          end
+
    +

    + Then add the following line within app/controllers/admin_controller.rb +

    + 
    +        class AdminController < ApplicationController
+
+          before_filter :administrative
+          skip_before_filter :has_info
+
    +
    +
    +
    +
    +
    + + + + Hint + +
    +
    +
    + I bet there is some admin functionality in here :-) +
