CVE-2024-0945

7.3 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

This critical vulnerability in 60IndexPage allows remote attackers to perform server-side request forgery (SSRF) by manipulating the 'url' parameter in /include/file.php. Attackers can exploit this to make the server send unauthorized requests to internal or external systems. All users of 60IndexPage versions up to 1.8.5 are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • 60IndexPage
Versions: up to 1.8.5
Operating Systems: All
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Affects the Parameter Handler component in /include/file.php

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete compromise of internal network resources, data exfiltration, or use as a pivot point for further attacks on internal systems.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to internal services, information disclosure from internal endpoints, or abuse of server resources for scanning/attacks.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited to accessing only allowed external resources or blocked by network segmentation.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Exploit has been publicly disclosed and requires minimal technical skill to execute

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: None available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Vendor was contacted but did not respond. Consider upgrading if newer versions become available or implement workarounds.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation and Filtering

all

Implement strict validation of the 'url' parameter to only allow expected domains and protocols

Modify /include/file.php to validate URL parameter against whitelist

Network Restriction

linux

Configure server firewall to restrict outbound connections from web server

iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j DROP

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Remove or disable 60IndexPage if not essential
  • Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to block SSRF patterns

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check if /include/file.php exists and contains parameter handling without proper URL validation

Check Version:

Check 60IndexPage version in configuration files or admin panel

Verify Fix Applied:

Test if URL parameter manipulation no longer results in unauthorized external requests

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual outbound requests from web server
  • Multiple failed connection attempts to internal IPs
  • Requests to /include/file.php with URL parameter

Network Indicators:

  • Web server making unexpected outbound connections
  • Requests to internal services from web server IP

SIEM Query:

source="web_server" AND (url="*include/file.php*" OR dest_ip="10.*" OR dest_ip="192.168.*" OR dest_ip="172.16-31.*")
