🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Not available
Vendor Advisory: https://code-projects.org/
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Apply workarounds or implement custom security controls.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Implement File Upload Validation
allAdd server-side validation to restrict file uploads to allowed extensions (e.g., .jpg, .png) and verify file types using MIME checking.
Modify AddNewProduct.php to include: $allowed_extensions = ['jpg', 'png', 'gif']; $file_extension = strtolower(pathinfo($_FILES['ProductImage']['name'], PATHINFO_EXTENSION)); if (!in_array($file_extension, $allowed_extensions)) { die('Invalid file type'); }
Restrict Access to Upload Directory
allConfigure web server to prevent execution of uploaded files in the upload directory by setting appropriate permissions.
chmod 644 /path/to/upload/directory/*
Add to .htaccess: RemoveHandler .php .phtml .php3 .php4 .php5 .php7 .phps .cgi .exe .pl .asp .aspx .shtml .shtm .fcgi .fpl .jsp
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Disable or restrict access to AddNewProduct.php functionality if not required.
- Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to block malicious file upload patterns.
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Attempt to upload a file with a .php extension via the ProductImage parameter in AddNewProduct.php. If accepted without validation, the system is vulnerable.
Check Version:
Check the software version in the admin panel or configuration files; look for 'Mobile Shop Management System 1.0'.
Verify Fix Applied:
Test file upload with restricted extensions (e.g., .php) - it should be rejected. Verify uploaded files cannot be executed from the upload directory.
📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual file uploads to AddNewProduct.php with non-image extensions
- Multiple failed upload attempts with suspicious file types
- Access to uploaded files with executable extensions in upload directory
Network Indicators:
- HTTP POST requests to AddNewProduct.php with file uploads containing executable extensions
- Subsequent requests to uploaded files in unusual locations
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/AddNewProduct.php" AND method="POST" AND (file_extension="php" OR file_extension="exe" OR file_extension="pl")
