Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware <= 24.1 (tikiimporter_blog_wordpress.php) PHP
Object Injection Vulnerability
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[-] Software Link:
https://tiki.org
[-] Affected Versions:
Version 24.1 and prior versions.
[-] Vulnerability Description:
The vulnerability is located in the
/lib/importer/tikiimporter_blog_wordpress.php script. Specifically, when
importing data from WordPress sites through the Tiki Importer, user
input passed through the uploaded XML file is being used in a call to
the unserialize() PHP function. This can be exploited by malicious users
to inject arbitrary PHP objects into the application scope, allowing
them to perform a variety of attacks, such as executing arbitrary PHP
code. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an admin
account (specifically, the ‘tiki_p_admin_importer’ permission). However,
due to the CSRF vulnerability described in KIS-2023-01, this
vulnerability might also be exploited by tricking a victim user into
opening a web page like the following:
<html>
<form action="http://localhost/tiki/tiki-importer.php" method="POST"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="hidden" name="importerClassName"
value="TikiImporter_Blog_Wordpress" />
<input type="hidden" name="importAttachments" value="on" />
<input type="file" name="importFile" id="fileinput"/>
</form>
