PHP Volunteer Management System v1.0.2 Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerability

Description

This module exploits a vulnerability found in PHP Volunteer Management System, version v1.0.2 or prior. This application has an upload feature that allows an authenticated user to upload anything to the 'uploads' directory, which is actually reachable by anyone without a credential. An attacker can easily abuse this upload functionality first by logging in with the default credential (admin:volunteer), upload a malicious payload, and then execute it by sending another GET request.

Module Options

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':

msf > use exploit/multi/http/php_volunteer_upload_exec
msf exploit(php_volunteer_upload_exec) > show targets
    ...targets...
msf exploit(php_volunteer_upload_exec) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(php_volunteer_upload_exec) > show options
    ...show and set options...
msf exploit(php_volunteer_upload_exec) > exploit

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
