CVE-2023-26876 is an SQL injection vulnerability in Piwigo versions up to and including 13.5.0. The flaw resides in the 'filter_user_id' parameter of the admin.php?page=history endpoint, where user-supplied input is not properly sanitized before being incorporated into SQL queries. This allows a remote attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution on the server.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module targeting CVE-2023-26876, a SQL injection vulnerability in Piwigo version 13.5.0. The module allows an authenticated attacker to extract all usernames and encrypted password hashes from the Piwigo database by exploiting the 'filter_user_id' parameter in the 'admin.php?page=history' endpoint. The exploit requires valid credentials to log in to the Piwigo instance. The module is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's HTTP client and SQLi mixins. The main entry point is the 'run' method, which performs authentication and then executes the SQL injection to retrieve and display the credentials. The code is operational and provides real credential extraction, but does not provide a post-exploitation payload or shell. The endpoints involved are '/identification.php' for login, '/index.php' for version checking, and '/admin.php?page=history' for the actual SQL injection. The repository is structured as a typical Metasploit module and is suitable for credential harvesting in penetration testing scenarios.
