CVE-2018-7600 | Drupal 8.5.x < 8.5.1 / 8.4.x < 8.4.6 / 8.x < 8.3.9 / 7.x? < 7.58 / < 6.x? - 'Drupalgeddon2' RCE (SA-CORE-2018-002)

Drupalggedon2 ~ https://github.com/dreadlocked/Drupalgeddon2/ (https://www.drupal.org/sa-core-2018-002)

Supports:

Drupal < 8.3.9 / < 8.4.6 / < 8.5.1 ~ user/register URL, attacking account/mail & #post_render parameter, using PHP's passthru function
Drupal < 7.58 ~ user/password URL, attacking triggering_element_name form & #post_render parameter, using PHP's passthru function
Works with direct commands (aka File-Less Method) or writes a PHP shell to the web root (./) or sub-directories (./sites/default/ & ./sites/default/files/)
Support Linux & Windows targets
Auto detects Drupal version (or takes a good guess!)

The user/register method was chosen for Drupal v8.x, as it will return HTTP 200, and render the output in the data JSON response (un-comment the code for timezone/#lazy_builder method, which will return HTTP 500 & blind!) (More Information)

Notes:

For advance users/setups there is a more customizable exploit. See the drupalgeddon2-customizable-beta.rb section
Before opening an issue, please, read the troubleshooting section at the end. Thanks!

Usage:

$ ruby drupalgeddon2.rb
Usage: ruby drupalggedon2.rb <target> [--verbose] [--authentication]
       ruby drupalgeddon2.rb https://example.com
$

The --verbose and --authentication parameter can be added in any order after and they are both optional. If --authentication is specified then you will be prompted with a request to submit

username,
password,
form field name for username,
form field name for password,
URL path to the web login page, e.g., user/login
eventual suffix to append after the credentials in the form submission, e.g., form_id, etc.

This is to support exploiting websites that first require POST-based web login and who respond with a session cookie, upon successful authentication.

try_phpshelltryphpshell = false

Proxy Support

For proxy support (e.g. Burp), edit the file, replacing with your values. Example:

proxy_addr = "192.168.0.130"
proxy_port = 8080

Experimental but usable: drupalgeddon2-customizable-beta.rb

drupalgeddon2-customizable-beta.rb is intended for more advance users as its more customizable. It allows you to specify some more parameters as the PHP method to use (not only system() or passthru()) and the way to reach user/password form.

Usage examples:

Usage example: ./drupalgeddon-customizable-beta.rb -u http://example.com/ -v 7 -c id
More info: -h
    -u, --url URL                    [Required] Service URL
    -v, --version VERSION            [Required] Target Drupal version {7,8}
    -c, --command COMMAND            [Required] Command to execute
    -m, --method PHP_METHOD          [Optional] PHP Method to use, by default: passthru
        --form                       [Optional] Form to attack, by default '/user/password' in Drupal 7 and '/user/register' in Drupal 8
        --cloudflare                 [Optional] Tries to bypass Cloudflare using Lua-Nginx +100 parameters WAF Bypass
    -h, --help                       Prints this help

Troubleshooting:

Whenever getting a cannot load such file "LoadError" type of error, do run sudo gem install <missing dependency>. In particular, you may need to install the highline dependency with sudo gem install highline
The target may redirect to another path, where Drupal exists (such as HTTP 30x responses)
- Solution: Make sure you are using the correct Drupal path
There is a limitations of a allowed characters that are able to be used in the payload/command
- Solution: This is due to how the vulnerability sees them and them being encoded for the URL request. Encode the payload, decode it on the target. Such as base64
If the target is Linux, and isn't using "GNU base64", it may be the BSD version (or its not installed all together!)
- Solution: which to base64 -D (rather than base64 -d) or use the file-less method
If the target using Windows, writing the PHP shell always fails
- Solution: Use file-less method. This is because gets pipe to a unix program, rather than using certutil or PowerShell
Drupal v8.x - ./.htaccess will stop any PHP scripts from executing in ./sites/default/ if that is the writeable folder
- Solution: Switch to the file-less method
Drupal v8.x - "clean URL" isn't enabled on the target
- Solution: N/A - Not vulnerable =(
Drupal v7.x - If the /user/password form is disabled, you meed find another form (remember to change the exploit!)
- Solution: form_id parameter will change depending on the form used to exploit the vulnerability
