CVE-2023-24489 is a critical vulnerability in customer-managed Citrix ShareFile StorageZones Controller, affecting versions prior to 5.11.24. The flaw is exposed through the Documentum upload functionality, particularly the upload.aspx endpoint, where encrypted request parameters are accepted and processed without sufficient access control and validation. The application uses AES-CBC encrypted parameters and validates padding, but does not adequately validate the decrypted data or enforce authentication in the affected upload flow. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to craft acceptable encrypted input that carries attacker-controlled values, including path traversal data in upload-related parameters, and to upload arbitrary files to attacker-chosen locations on the server. Because the vulnerable application runs under IIS and can be induced to store executable server-side content, successful exploitation can result in arbitrary file upload followed by remote code execution.

This repository contains a Python exploit script (cve.py) targeting Citrix ShareFile's remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2023-24489). The exploit works by abusing the /documentum/upload.aspx endpoint to upload a crafted ASPX webshell, which then allows arbitrary command execution on the target server. The script supports both Windows and Linux targets, generating the appropriate payload for each. It can be run in two modes: direct exploitation of a single target (--host) or mass checking a list of potential targets (--mass-check). The script is operational and provides command execution capabilities, returning the output to the attacker. The main fingerprintable endpoints are /documentum/upload.aspx (for exploitation) and /cifs/real.aspx (for retrieving command output). The repository is structured simply, with the main exploit logic in cve.py, and includes a README with usage instructions and references.
