Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in phpcrs up to 2.06. Affected is some unknown processing of the file frame.php. The manipulation of the argument importFunction with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Directory traversal vulnerability in frame.php in phpcrs 2.06 and earlier, when magic_quotes_gpc is disabled, allows remote attackers to include and execute arbitrary local files via a .. (dot dot) in the importFunction parameter.

The weakness was disclosed 02/06/2009 by Pepelux (Website). The advisory is shared for download at securityfocus.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2008-6074 since 02/05/2009. The exploitability is told to be difficult. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Technical details and a public exploit are known. The MITRE ATT&CK project declares the attack technique as T1006.

A public exploit has been developed by Pepelux and been published even before and not after the advisory. The exploit is shared for download at exploit-db.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 107 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $0-$5k. By approaching the search of inurl:frame.php it is possible to find vulnerable targets with Google Hacking.

There is no information about possible countermeasures known. It may be suggested to replace the affected object with an alternative product.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (46043), Exploit-DB (6806), SecurityFocus (BID 31876†) and Secunia (SA32379†). Once again VulDB remains the best source for vulnerability data.
