A vulnerability in Samsung Internet Browser 5.4.02.3 allows remote attackers to bypass the Same Origin Policy (SOP) by using crafted JavaScript code that redirects to a child tab and rewrites the innerHTML property. This enables attackers to access sensitive information from other origins, violating browser security boundaries.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module that exploits a Same-Origin Policy (SOP) bypass vulnerability (CVE-2017-17692) in the Samsung Internet Browser for Android. The module sets up an HTTP server that serves a crafted HTML/JavaScript payload. When a victim using the vulnerable browser visits the attacker's server, the exploit opens a new tab to a spoofed origin, injects JavaScript to display a fake error page, and prompts the user for their email and password. These credentials are then sent back to the attacker's server and stored in the Metasploit credential database. The module is configurable, allowing the attacker to specify the spoofed target URL, custom HTML, and custom JavaScript. The main attack vector is browser-based social engineering, requiring the victim to interact with the attacker's web page. The only fingerprintable endpoint is the default spoofed origin URL ('http://example.com/'), which can be customized by the attacker. The code is operational and ready for use within the Metasploit framework.
