Sparkshop | v.1.1.7
How the Exploit Works
The vulnerability exists due to insecure permissions in the Common.php component of the Sparkshop platform. This insecure configuration can be exploited by a remote attacker without requiring any user interaction or special privileges. By crafting a specific HTTP request containing malicious payload and sending it to the server, the attacker can trick the system into executing the arbitrary code.
Conceptual Example Code
Here’s a conceptual example of how an HTTP request might exploit this vulnerability:
POST /Common.php HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{
"command": "system('rm -rf /');"
}In the above example, the “command” parameter is manipulated to carry out a dangerous operation, effectively deleting all files in the server. However, this is merely an illustrative example, and the actual malicious payload could be any command that the attacker wishes to execute on the compromised system.
Mitigation
Users of Sparkshop v.1.1.7 are advised to apply the latest security patch from the vendor as soon as possible. Until the patch can be applied, users can use a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) as temporary mitigation to monitor and block malicious requests. It’s also recommended to regularly update all software components to their latest versions to prevent exploitation of known vulnerabilities.
