What problem does it solve?
This Skill identifies and diagnoses HTTP Host header injection weaknesses that can lead to password reset poisoning, web cache poisoning, SSRF, virtual host routing abuse, and other host-based routing or URL generation vulnerabilities.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Reflected Host Detection: Detects when Host or alternative host headers are reflected in responses or included in generated URLs.
- Password Reset Poisoning Checks: Triggers and inspects password reset flows to determine if reset links can be poisoned to leak tokens.
- Cache & SSRF Probing: Exercises cache layers and backend request flows to verify cache poisoning and SSRF via Host header manipulation.
- Use Case: During a web application pentest, run this Skill to enumerate vhosts, verify reset email link generation, and confirm whether caches or proxies honor attacker-controlled host headers.
Quick Start
Test http://target.com for Host header reflection, password reset poisoning, cache poisoning, SSRF, and virtual host exposure and produce a summarized findings report.
