Function Disclosure

javascript:downloadContract('1')

function downloadContract(uid) {
    $.redirect("/download.php", {
        contract: CryptoJS.MD5(btoa(uid)).toString(),
    }, "POST", "_self");
}
echo -n 1 | base64 -w 0 | md5sum

cdd96d3cc73d1dbdaffa03cc6cd7339b -

match

Tip: We are using the -n flag with echo, and the -w 0 flag with base64, to avoid adding newlines, in order to be able to calculate the md5 hash of the same value, without hashing newlines, as that would change the final md5 hash.

Change id

Modifying Other Users' Details

Use id 2 and uuid diclosed to change user info via PUT request

One type of attack is modifying a user's email address and then requesting a password reset link, which will be sent to the email address we specified, thus allowing us to take control over their account. Another potential attack is placing an XSS payload in the 'about' field
