Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2013-6829 is a command injection vulnerability in PineApp Mail-SeCure, specifically in the admin/confnetworking.html interface. The vulnerability arises because the pinghost parameter, used during a ping operation, does not properly sanitize input, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary shell metacharacters. This enables execution of arbitrary commands on the underlying system with the privileges of the web server process.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/linux/http/pineapp_test_li_conn_exec.rb) targeting a command injection vulnerability (CVE-2013-6829) in PineApp Mail-SeCure 3.70. The exploit abuses the /admin/test_li_connection.php endpoint, which insecurely passes user input to the system() PHP function. The module first retrieves a session cookie by sending a GET request with specific parameters, then exploits the vulnerability by injecting a semicolon and arbitrary command into the 'iptest' parameter. The exploit is operational and allows remote command execution as the web server user. The code is written in Ruby and is designed to be used within the Metasploit framework. The only relevant endpoint is the HTTPS interface on port 7443, specifically the /admin/test_li_connection.php path.
