AzureGoat : A Damn Vulnerable Azure Infrastructure
Compromising an organization's cloud infrastructure is like sitting on a gold mine for attackers. And sometimes, a simple misconfiguration or a vulnerability in web applications, is all an attacker needs to compromise the entire infrastructure. Since the cloud is relatively new, many developers are not fully aware of the threatscape and they end up deploying a vulnerable cloud infrastructure. Microsoft Azure cloud has become the second-largest vendor by market share in the cloud infrastructure providers (as per multiple reports), just behind AWS. There are numerous tools and vulnerable applications available for AWS for the security professional to perform attack/defense practices, but it is not the case with Azure. There are far fewer options available to the community.
AzureGoat is a vulnerable by design infrastructure on Azure featuring the latest released OWASP Top 10 web application security risks (2021) and other misconfiguration based on services such as App Functions, CosmosDB, Storage Accounts, Automation and Identities. AzureGoat mimics real-world infrastructure but with added vulnerabilities. It features multiple escalation paths and is focused on a black-box approach.
The project will be divided into modules and each module will be a separate web application, powered by varied tech stacks and development practices. It will leverage IaC through terraform to ease the deployment process.

Vulnerabilities
The project is scheduled to encompass all significant vulnerabilities including the OWASP TOP 10 2021, and popular cloud misconfigurations. Currently, the project contains the following vulnerabilities/misconfigurations.
- XSS
- SQL Injection
- Insecure Direct Object reference
- Server Side Request Forgery on App Function Environment
- Sensitive Data Exposure and Password Reset
- Storage Account Misconfigurations
- Identity Misconfigurations
Getting Started
Prerequisites
- An Azure Account
Installation
To ease the deployment process the user just needs to clone this repo, login to azure cli then initialize and apply the Terraform file. This workflow will deploy the whole infrastructure and output the hosted application's URL.
Here are the steps to follow:
Step 1. Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/ine-labs/AzureGoatStep 2. Login to Azure CLI
az loginAnd follow the steps to sign in.
Step 3. Create a resource group with the name "azuregoat_app".
Step 4. Use terraform to deploy AzureGoat
terraform init
terraform apply --auto-approveModules
Module 1
The first module features a serverless blog application utilizing Azure App Functions, Storage Accounts, CosmosDB, and Azure Automation. It consists of various web application vulnerabilities and facilitates exploitation of misconfigured Azure resources.
