How the Exploit Works

The vulnerability stems from improper control of the filename for include/require statement in the PHP program. When exploited, this allows an attacker to include local files from the server, potentially leading to the execution of arbitrary PHP code. The attacker could then gain unauthorized access, compromise the system, or extract sensitive data.

Conceptual Example Code

Below is a conceptual example of how this vulnerability might be exploited in HTTP request form:

GET /path/to/gracemag/index.php?page=../../../../../etc/passwd HTTP/1.1
Host: vulnerable-website.com

In this example, the attacker is attempting to include the “/etc/passwd” file, a critical system file on Unix-based systems, by traversing directories using the “../../” notation.

Mitigation Guidance

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended that users apply the vendor’s patch as soon as it becomes available. Until then, using a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can provide temporary mitigation. However, it’s crucial to remember that these are temporary solutions, and the patch should be applied as soon as possible to fully secure the system.
