'Name' => 'Rejetto HTTP File Server (HFS) Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution',
'Description' => %q{
The Rejetto HTTP File Server (HFS) version 2.x is vulnerable to an unauthenticated server side template
injection (SSTI) vulnerability. A remote unauthenticated attacker can execute code with the privileges
of the user account running the HFS.exe server process. This exploit has been tested to work against version
2.4.0 RC7 and 2.3m. The Rejetto HTTP File Server (HFS) version 2.x is no longer supported by the maintainers
and no patch is available. Users are recommended to upgrade to newer supported versions.

# The 'search' query parameter is echoed into the content before server side template processing occurs on the
# content being processed. Under normal operation any user supplied content will be escaped, so any symbols, which
# are encoded as '%symbol%' and macro which are encoded as '{:macro:}' will be escaped to prevent SSTI.
# However we can force a percent symbol to become un-escaped. This allows us to embed any symbol in the content
# being processed. We can leverage this to force the '%url%' symbol to become unescaped. This will echo back the
# remainder of the un-encoded URL into the server side content.
# To inject our own content, we need to first write a MARKER_UNQUOTE ':}' sequence,
# however this will be filtered. We can then bypass the filtering for ':}' by leveraging the %host% symbol and an
# empty host header value. So ':%host%}' will become ':}' and this will not be escaped. After this happens we can
# perform an arbitrary template injection of any HFS symbols or macros we want.
