How the Exploit Works
The vulnerability stems from the software’s handling of the SessionID cookie. An attacker can exploit the vulnerability by sending a specifically crafted POST request to ‘/inc/connect/CONNECTION.ASP’. If successful, the attacker can then retrieve, update, create, and delete databases, leading to potential data leakage or a full system compromise.
Conceptual Example Code
Below is a conceptual example of a malicious HTTP POST request that could potentially exploit this vulnerability:
POST /inc/connect/CONNECTION.ASP HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
Cookie: SessionID=...
{ "malicious_payload": "'; DROP TABLE users;--" }In this example, the malicious payload is an SQL command that deletes the ‘users’ table from the database. It is crucial to note that this is a basic example and actual exploit payloads could be far more complex, sophisticated, and damaging.
Mitigation
AndSoft has released a vendor patch to address this vulnerability and it is highly recommended to apply this patch immediately. In cases where immediate patching is not possible, using a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can serve as a temporary mitigation, but it should not be considered a long-term solution.
