Exploit Title: AlienVault newpolicyform.php SQLi
Date: 5/9/2014
Exploit Author: chrisdhebert[at]gmail.com
Vendor Homepage: http://www.alienvault.com/
Software Link: http://www.alienvault.com/free-downloads-services
Version: 4.6.1 and below
Tested on: Linux
CVE : n/a
Vendor Security Advisory : AV-11394 http://forums.alienvault.com/discussion/2690/security-advisories-v4-6-1-and-lower

4/14/2014 (Vulnerablity Discovered)

Vendor Discription:
------------------
OSSIM is the most widely used SIEM offering, thanks in no small part to the open source
community that has promoted its use. OSSIM provides all of the capabilities that a security
professional needs from a SIEM offering, event collection, normalization, correlation and
incident response - but it also does far more. Not simply satisfied with integrating data
from existing security tools, OSSIM is built on the Unified Security Management platform
which provides a common framework for the deployment, configuration, and management of your
security tools.

Vulnerability Details:
---------------------
The vulnerability can be classified as "SQL Injection" from authenticated users. No input validation is performed when processing parameters on the following request:
GET /ossim/policy/newpolicyform.php?insertafter='SQLi HTTP/1.1

Although this POC demonstrates READ access to files readable by u=mysql g=root o=all (such as /etc/passwd).  It should be noted that, an attacker should be able to WRITE to a new file with sufficient permissions such as /tmp/newfile.   After a quick search, exploiting this may be midigated by the current file permissions of /usr/share/*ossim/www/* and other vhosts handled by apache.  For those with more time, other writeable locations could be leveraged with this vulnerablity.
