[Hack] 4 Pieces Original Chicken (or Hot & Spicy Where Available) $7.45 @ KFC (Desktop Browser Required)

Since the previous hacks stopped working, I started looking into new methods of getting cheap chicken. I noticed that the KFC app seems to only perform client side validation of whether your cart is valid (very bad cybersecurity), so I found a new method of getting the hack which works on the KFC website ordering. The method involves performing a replay attack on the add to cart request sent to the server. Unfortunately this method only works on PC, so it is not very convenient to use, but I believe that it might still be possible on the app due to lack of server side cart validation.
Steps:
- Open KFC website (https://www.kfc.com.au/menu/shared-meals/burger-feast)
- Add burger feast to cart (Other feasts might also work)
- Open browser developer tools (Ctrl + Shift + I), then go to the network tab
- Add the add on you want to cart
- In the developer tools, identify the network request that corresponds to adding the add on to cart (POST request, URL ends with /line-items)
- Go to cart and remove the feast, it will remove the add on as well. (Hint: do this in another tab so the developer tools does not get cluttered with extra network requests).
- Go back to browser developer tools and replay the request identified in step 5. (right click, then Resend in Firefox or Replay XHR in Chrome)
- Refresh the cart page and the add on should be in there.
See also which does not use developer tools and can be performed on mobile:
- Open 2 tabs of the KFC site.
- On tab #1, add the Burger Feast to the cart and do not press anything when Add-ons menu appears.
- Switch to tab #2 and navigate to cart and remove the feast
- Switch to tab #1 and click Add to Order on the add-on you want.
