Remote


Severity Level:
===============
Medium


Technical Details & Description:
================================
A cross site request forgery web vulnerability has been discovered in
the official DirectAdmin CP v1.50.0 control panel web-application.
The vulnerability allows remote attacker to prepare client-side
websites with malicious codes to execute internal application
functions
via non-expired user session credentials.

DirectAdmin suffers from cross site request forgery web vulnerability
that is located in the CMC_FILE_MANAGER module POST method request.
Remote attackers are able to prepare malicious websites that can
execute client-side application functions to add/edit via non-expired
session.
The attack vector of the issue is client-side and the request method
to inject is POST. The attacker preapres a malicious website wiht a
hidden
POST method request to execute in the CMD_FILE_MANAGER the edit/add
function with already defined perimeters.

The security risk of the client-side web vulnerability is estimated as
medium with a cvss (common vulnerability scoring system) count of 3.0.
Exploitation of the non-persistent web vulnerability requires no
privileged web application user account and low or medium user
interaction.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in session
hijacking, non-persistent phishing, non-persistent external redirects,
non-persistent load of malicious script codes or non-persistent web
module context manipulation.

Request Method(s):
                                [+] POST

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] CMD_FILE_MANAGER

Vulnerable Function(s):
                                [+] Edit


Proof of Concept (PoC):
=======================
The cross site request forgery vulnerability can be exploited by
remote attackers without privileged application user account and with
low or medium user interaction.
For security demonstration or to reproduce the vulnerability follow
the provided information and steps below to continue.


PoC: Create New File and Edit a file (CMD_FILE_MANAGER)
<form name=info action='https://address:port/CMD_FILE_MANAGER' method='POST'>
<input type="hidden" name=action value="edit">
<input type="hidden" name=path value="/index.php">
<input name="hidden" value="<? phpinfo ?>">
<input type="submit" value="save as">
<input type="hidden" name=filename value="/index.php">
</form>


Security Risk:
==============
The security risk of the client-side cross site request forgery web
vulnerability in the web-application is estimated as medium. (CVSS
3.0)
