The admin webpage "admin.php" takes four parameters pass, command, id and type. Theres a single check to authenticate $_GET['pass'] against a hardcoded clear-text password in settings.php. The backend "admin.php" code has an upload feature, it uses PHP "unlink" function to delete a file before moving the new one. However, the code does not use any secure coding practices, sanitize or filter user input for directory traversal characters "/../". This can allow authenticated users, compromised bots or third-party attackers who can guess the password check, ability to delete any file E.g. ".php", ".htaccess" etc in the root panel outside the "uploads/" dir, causing Loki web panel to become inoperative. admin.php snippet: case "upload": $fullfilename = "uploads/" . $_GET['filename']; if (file_exists($fullfilename)) unlink ($fullfilename); move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $fullfilename); Family: Loki Type: WebUI MD5: aabb54951546132e70a8e9f02bf8b5ba MD5: 16c33e28c8c9b3ea71249ad94be4bf94 (admin.php) Vuln ID: MVID-2022-0509 Disclosure: 03/05/2022 Exploit/PoC: delete "settings.php" file which holds database connection, rendering the backend inoperative. http://LOKI-RAT-IP/PHP%20Files/admin.php?pass=test&command=webcam&id=1&type=upload&filename=/../settings.php Disclaimer: The information contained within this advisory is supplied "as-is" with no warranties or guarantees of fitness of use or otherwise.
