Abstract:
=========
The independent Vulnerability Laboratory Researcher (X-Cisadane) discovered multiple critical Web Vulnerabilities in 
the AWAuctionScript v1.0 CMS.


Report-Timeline:
================
2012-11-04:     Public Disclosure


Status:
========
Published


Exploitation-Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity:
=========
Critical


Details:
========
1.1
A remote SQL Injection vulnerability is detected in the AWAuctionScript v1.0 Content Management System Web Application.
The vulnerability allows an attacker (remote) or local low privileged user account to execute a SQL commands on the 
affected application dbms. 
The sql injection vulnerability is located in listing.php file with the bound vulnerable PageNo parameter request. 
Successful exploitation of 
the vulnerability results in dbms & application compromise. Exploitation requires no user interaction & without 
privileged user account.

Vulnerable File(s):
                                [+] Listing.php

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] Category

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                [+] &PageNo



1.2
A webshell upload vulnerability is detected in the in the AWAuctionScript v1.0 Content Management System Web 
Application.
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to upload own files via a misconfigured upload function (restriction).  The 
bug is 
located in the avatar upload function and the bound vulnerable (accessable) thumbnail path. Successful exploitation of 
the 
vulnerability result in malicious file uploads like webshell, malware and co. to compromise the application system 
itself.

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] Upload Avatar - Edit Account


1.3
A persistent input validation vulnerability is detected in the AWAuctionScript v1.0 Content Management System Web 
Application.
The bug allow remote attackers to implement/inject own malicious script code on the application side (persistent). The 
persistent vulnerabilities 
is located in the login module with the bound vulnerable username parameter. Successful exploitation of the 
vulnerability can lead to session 
hijacking(manager/admin) or stable (persistent) context manipulation. Exploitation requires low user inter action & low 
privileged web 
application user account.

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                [+] Login - User Management

Vulnerable Parameter(s):
                                [+] Username


Proof of Concept:
=================
1.1
The SQL Injection vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without required user inter action or privileged 
application user account.
For demonstration or reproduce ...

PoC:
http://[Server]/[PATH]/listing.php?category=Website&PageNo=-1'[SQL-Injection Vulnerability!] 

Reference(s):

--- SQL Error Logs ---
1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; 
check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-12,6' at line 1



1.2
The Upload Shell/Backdoor Vulnerability can be exploited by remote attackers without required user inter action 
but with low privileged user application account. For demonstration or reproduce ...


Example (Victim/Target) : http://testhacksite.com/
- Prepare your .php backdoor, rename it with index.php3 
- Register to victim site, for example : http://testhacksite.com/ 
- Activate by E-Mail, after Activated login to http://testhacksite.com/login.php
- Go to http://websiterama.com/edit-account.php 
- Upload the avatar, browse your Backdoor/Shell file & upload it!
- Copy the image location/image url of the thumbnail (on the right) 
- Paste in URL. Voilaaaa! http://testhacksite.com/avatar/1031115958.php3



1.3
The persistent and non persistent cross site scripting vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attacker with low 
privileged 
application user account and medium or high required user inter action. For demonstration or reproduce ...

XSS (Non Persistent)

Module(s): 
                        [+] Admin Login page

PoC:                    "><script>alert(/xss/)</script> 

Note:                   Fill username with the poc string and the password with anything.


Module(s): 
                        [+] On Listing Page 

PoC:                    http://victim site/<path>/listing.php?category=[Insert HTML/XSS Script]

Reference(s): 
                        http://server.com/listing.php?category=<script>alert(/x-cisadane/)</script> 


XSS (Persistent)

Module(s): 
                        [+] sell-your-site

Requirement(s):         *Must be logged in

PoC:                    http://victim site/<path>/sell-your-site.php

Example (Victim/Target):
- Go to http://www.server.com/sell-your-site.php
- On the Site Name, fill it with this script : <script>alert("Hacked)</script>
- On the Site Description, fill it with this script on from this link http://pastebin.com/5mfg7xv4
- Done!


Risk:
=====
1.1
The security risk of the remote sql injection vulnerability is estimated as critical.

1.2
The security risk of the webshell upload and restriction bypass vulnerability is estimated as high.

1.3
The security risk of the persistent and non-persistent cross site scripting vulnerabilities are estimated as 
medium(+)|(-)high.
