=======================================================================
title: Remote command execution in Joomla! CMS
program: Joomla!
vulnerable version: 1.5 beta 2
Earlier 1.5 versions may be vulnerable too!
impact: critical

Vendor description:
-------------------
Joomla! is an award-winning Content Management System (CMS) that will
help you build websites and other powerful online applications. Best of
all, Joomla! is an open source solution that is freely available to
everybody. Joomla! is used all over the world to power everything from
simple, personal homepages to complex corporate web applications.

Vulnerability overview:
-----------------------
The search component of Joomla! allows an attacker to execute arbitrary
PHP commands. It is e.g. possible to execute OS commands via system()
calls. PHP is set to the settings recommended by the Joomla! installer!
An attacker does not need to be authenticated to perform this attack!
Vulnerability description:
--------------------------
The following scripts of a default Joomla! 1.5 beta 2 installation
contain the vulnerable code:
1) components/com_search/views/search/tmpl/default_results.php
line 12: <?php eval ('echo "'. $this->result .'";'); ?>
2) templates/beez/html/com_search/search/default_results.php
line 25: echo '<p>' . eval ('echo "' . $this->result . '";');
Input of the "searchword" parameter is being passed to the mentioned
eval() code and executed. An attacker is able to append new PHP commands
after the "echo" language construct which can be used for OS command
execution.
In order to bypass the search word length limitation of 20 characters a
new GET parameter is being used to specify the OS commands (see proof of
concept).
Proof of concept:
-----------------
http://$joomlahost/index.php?searchword=";phpinfo();%23&option=com_search&Itemid=1
http://$joomlahost/index.php?c=id&searchword=";system($_GET[c]);%23&option=com_search&Itemid=1
Vulnerable versions:
--------------------
The following versions were found to be vulnerable:
* 1.5 beta 2
Earlier versions of Joomla! 1.5 beta have not been tested and may be
vulnerable too!
The stable version 1.0.13 of Joomla! does not contain the vulnerable
code and is not affected by this security issue.
Vendor contact timeline:
------------------------
2007-05-21: vendor notified via email ([email protected])
2007-05-21: vendor replied and fixed the issue in SVN

2007-07-21: vendor released RC1 of Joomla! 1.5
2007-07-22: coordinated disclosure date, special greetings to Rob!
Solution:
---------
The vendor does not recommend using the development version v1.5 beta
for production sites and suggests using the latest stable version(s).
If Joomla! v1.5 beta is being used, upgrade to v1.5 RC1 immediately
which fixes the issue!
Patch/Workaround:
-----------------
Use the fix from SVN (check out at least revision 7456 of
/development/trunk/components/com_search/views/search/view.php)
