CVE-2024-5276 is a SQL injection vulnerability in Fortra FileCatalyst Workflow affecting all versions from 5.1.6 Build 135 and earlier. The flaw allows attacker-controlled input to be used in SQL operations in a way that permits unauthorized modification of application data stored in the Workflow database. Reported consequences include the ability to create administrative users and to delete or alter data within the application database. Available information indicates that this issue does not permit data exfiltration through SQL injection. Exploitation can be performed without authentication when anonymous access is enabled on the Workflow system; otherwise, exploitation requires a valid authenticated user account.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module targeting Fortra FileCatalyst Workflow (<= v5.1.6 Build 135) for CVE-2024-5276, a SQL injection vulnerability. The exploit works by interacting with the web interface over HTTP, performing a series of requests to obtain session and CSRF tokens, and then injecting a new administrative user into the application's database via SQL injection. The module then verifies the success of the exploit by logging in with the new credentials. The code is written in Ruby and leverages the Metasploit framework's HTTP client utilities. The main endpoints targeted are under the '/workflow/' path, specifically the login and authentication-related endpoints. The exploit is operational and provides an attacker with full administrative access to the application if successful.
