admin.php attacks
March 18, 2003 - 15:6

Below is the outline for the php nuke attacks. 2 of our servers have been attacked with over 650+ attacks each. If you are runing PHP NUKE please fix it. It you can't fix it, please call us to fix it for you..... Dont let your data get hacked.


PHP Nuke is a website creation/maintenance tool written in PHP3.

PHP Nuke contains a vulnerability that may allow for remote attackers to overwrite files with custom data on target webservers. The vulnerability lies in an administrative component of the package, 'admin.php'.

When the script is requested with a value set for the 'upload' variable, it attempts a file copy using remotely-supplied HTML variables as the source and destination files. The script does not ensure that the user requesting the operation is an administrator. As a result, it is possible for remote users to overwrite arbitrary webserver writeable files with data from arbitrary webserver readable files. It is also possible to place arbitrary files in webserver writeable directories on the target filesystem.

Furthermore, remote attackers can upload files to the webserver. An attacker may be able to upload a custom file to the webserver, then overwrite an arbitrary webserver-writeable file with it's contents.

The destination file does not need to be in the webroot tree.

This vulnerability may allow for an attacker to gain access to the host, cause denial of service or deface the target website.

Versions of PostNuke, a derivative of PHP Nuke, are also reportedly vulnerable.



Exploit
This vulnerability can be exploited with a web browser.



Solution
An unofficial fix has been suggested by Magnus Skjegstad :

In "admin.php"; change

"if($upload) {" to
"if (($upload) && ($admintest)) {"

Apache Patch
December 21, 2002 - 12:32

This patch includes Apache 1.3.27 which addresses and fixes the
following Apache vulnerabilities: CAN-2002-0839 (mitre.org),
CAN-2002-0840 (mitre.org) and CAN-2002-0843 (mitre.org).

if you have problems with cgi-bin:

CGI programs aren't working. Just responds with a 500 error message or you get an error that says "Got an error: Your DataSource directory ('/var/www/html/mtdb') does not exist"

suexec doesn't like your cgi-bin directories being 777

chmod 755 /home/virtual/site*/fst/var/www/cgi-bin

Everything is normal and will run fine after you do that.
