CMS Made Simple Authenticated RCE via object injection
Description
An issue was discovered in CMS Made Simple 2.2.8. In the module DesignManager (in the files action.admin_bulk_css.php and action.admin_bulk_template.php), with an unprivileged user with Designer permission, it is possible to reach an unserialize call with a crafted value in the m1_allparms parameter, and achieve object injection. This module has been successfully tested on CMS Made Simple versions 2.2.6, 2.2.7, 2.2.8, 2.2.9 and 2.2.9.1.

- Collect and share all the information you need to conduct a successful and efficient penetration test
- Simulate complex attacks against your systems and users
- Test your defenses to make sure they’re ready
- Automate Every Step of Your Penetration Test
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
