# Web Cache Deception Attack
## Exploit
1.Browser requests http://www.example.com/home.php/non-existent.css.
2.Server returns the content of http://www.example.com/home.php, most probably with HTTP caching headers that instruct to not cache this page.
3.The response goes through the proxy.
4.The proxy identifies that the file has a css extension.
5.Under the cache directory, the proxy creates a directory named home.php, and caches the imposter "CSS" file (non-existent.css) inside.
Simple example
```
1. Normal browsing, visit home : https://www.example.com/myaccount/home/
2. Open the malicious link : https://www.example.com/myaccount/home/malicious.css
3. The page is displayed as /home and the cache is saving the page
4. Open a private tab with the previous URL : https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/home/malicous.css
5. The content of the cache is displayed
```
