OWASP Damn Vulnerable Web Sockets (DVWS)

OWASP Damn Vulnerable Web Sockets (DVWS) is a vulnerable web application which works on web sockets for client-server communication. The flow of the application is similar to DVWA. You will find more vulnerabilities than the ones listed in the application.

https://owasp.org/www-project-damn-vulnerable-web-sockets/

Requirements

In the hosts file of your attacker machine create an entry for dvws.local to point at the IP address hosting the DVWS application.

Location of hosts file:

Windows: C:\windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Linux: /etc/hosts

Sample entry for hosts file:

192.168.100.199         dvws.local

The application requires the following:

Apache + PHP + MySQL

PHP with MySQLi support

Ratchet

ReactPHP-MySQL

Install "Ratchet" and "ReactPHP-MySQL" using composer:

git clone https://github.com/interference-security/DVWS
cd DVWS
composer install

Docker Installation

docker build -t dvws .

# For connecting with existing database
docker run -it \
  --name DVWS \
  -p 8080:8080 -p 8888:8888 \
  -e "DB_HOST=db" \
  -e "DB_USER=dvws" \
  -e "DB_PASSWORD=DVWS" \
  -e "DB_DATABASE=dvws" \
  --restart always \
  dvws

# or use docker-compose
docker-compose up

Visit http://localhost:8080/setup.php for getting started

Setting up DVWS

Set the MySQL hostname, username, password and an existing database name in the includes/connect-db.php file then go to Setup to finish setting up DVWS.

Running DVWS

On the host running this application, run the following command from DVWS directory: php ws-socket.php --heartbeat-interval <seconds>

Example: php ws-socket.php --heartbeat-interval 10

Important Note

DVWS has been developed with limited knowledge of Web Sockets. Feel free to contribute and enhance this project.
