This repository contains a working proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2022-41544, a critical remote code execution vulnerability in GetSimple CMS version 3.3.16 and earlier. The exploit is implemented in Python (exploit.py) and requires the attacker to know a valid admin username for the target CMS. The attack works by first detecting the CMS version, leaking the API key from an XML file, forging authentication cookies, retrieving a CSRF token, and then uploading a PHP reverse shell via the theme editor. The shell is then triggered, causing the target server to connect back to the attacker's listener, providing remote command execution. The exploit optionally supports an interactive telnet shell for post-exploitation. The repository is well-structured, with a README.md explaining usage, requirements, and mitigation steps, and a single exploit script (exploit.py) containing all exploit logic. The main attack vector is network-based, targeting the web interface of GetSimple CMS. All endpoints used in the attack are HTTP requests to the target CMS instance.
This repository contains a Python exploit script targeting CVE-2022-41544, a vulnerability in GetSimple CMS (version 3.3.16 and below). The exploit automates the process of checking the CMS version, leaking an API key, setting authentication cookies, obtaining a CSRF token, uploading a PHP reverse shell, and triggering the shell to gain remote code execution. The script requires the attacker to provide the target address, CMS path, a listening IP:port for the reverse shell, and a valid admin username. The main exploit logic is contained in 'CVE-2022-41544.py', which is well-documented and includes robust error handling. The repository also includes a README with detailed usage instructions and a LICENSE file. The exploit is operational, providing a working reverse shell payload in PHP, and is suitable for use in penetration testing scenarios where explicit authorization is granted.
