Port 80 lands us on to the Apache Ubuntu default installation page.
With nothing interesting in the page source code we can move onto directory enumeration with dirsearch.
dirsearch soon picks up the /content/ directory.
We are now aware we are running version 1.5.0 of SweetRice. Looking at the directory of /content/as/ we arrive at a login page.
Downloading the file and running the strings command against it reveals login information:
Where we have a username of manager and a password has of: 42f749ade7f9e195bf475f37a44cafcb. This hash MD5 hash and was cracked using Hashcat on Windows with the rockyou.txt wordlist.
We now have credentials manager:Password123. We can then login to the CMS.
Looking at the Media Centre blade on the right we can upload files to the server. Initially i tried a standard PHP reverse shell and this was filtered out. Saving the Shell as a .php5 was not filtered out for upload.
At which point I set up a netcat listener and executed the uploaded file.
From here we have access to the home directory of 'itguy' in /home/itguy. This directory contains some interesting files namely the backup.pl file. The perl file is not writeable us but, looking at the containing script it executed /etc/copy.sh which we have write access to.
After checking sudo privileges we see that www-data can run backup.pl as any user without specifying a password.
From this we can replace the contents of /etc/copy.sh with a reverse shell knowing we can execute it with root privileges.
Checking the contents of /etc/copy.sh looks like it already contains a reverse shell...
From here I echo out the contents then replace it again this time with our attacking machine IP and port. Then execute /home/itguy/backup.pl using sudo under the context of root.
At which point we receive a reverse shell.
Browsing to the directory reveals SweetRice. Research on Google shows this is CMS software:
Running dirsearch further on the /content/ directory with the raft-large-files.txt wordlist from seclists finds the changelog.txt page:
The directory /content/inc/ also contains various files: Of particular interest the the .sql backup in the mysql_backup folder.
I then transferred over to analyze if anything gets executed on a schedule in regards to either backup.pl or /etc/copy.sh. After waiting some time I assumed not.
