Vendor:
==================================
sourceforge.net/projects/phpshell/
phpshell.sourceforge.net/



Product:
==============
PHPShell v2.4



Vulnerability Type:
===================
Session Fixation



CVE Reference:
==============
N/A



Security Issue:
================
PHPShell does not regenerate the Session ID upon authentication, this can
potentially allow remote attackers to access parts of the application
using only a valid PHPSESSID if PHP.INI setting for
session.use_only_cookies=0.

Since an existing XSS vulnerability exists in PHPShell "
http://hyp3rlinx.altervista.org/advisories/PHPSHELL-v2.4-CROSS-SITE-SCRIPTING.txt"
the risk is
increased if an authenticated user clicks an attacker supplied link and the
attacker finds way to access or set the victims Cookie.

In 'phpshell.php' line 153 we see call to PHP function session_start();

After user authentication no call to "session_regenerate_id()" is made
leaving the authenticated session id same as pre-auth session id.
However, "session.use_only_cookies=1" is default since PHP 4.3.0, so to
exploit it would require that PHP.INI is set to session.use_only_cookies=0
on the victims system.

When accessing the application using the session fixation flaw and
attempting to run system command the application luckily redirects to login
form.
However, if a victim is actively changing directorys, reading files etc...
attackers may still be able to read current directory and files open
in the victims PHPShell console window.



Exploit/POC:
=============

1) Login to PHPShell run commands to CD to Windows directory and run DIR
command etc, then find and copy the PHPSESSID Cookie

2) Open a second browser (InternetExplorer) and access the application
cleanly for first time using the PHPSESSID in URL.

e.g.

http://VICTIM-IP/phpshell-2.4/phpshell.php?PHPSESSID=<STOLEN-SESSION-ID>

You should see what the authenticated victim now sees...

e.g.
