Critical RCE Vulnerability in upload.php via eval() and system() (Severity: HIGH)

This code is vulnerable to remote code execution, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the server. The upload.php script directly uses eval($_GET["XSS"]) and system($_GET["cmd"]), which causes any code provided in the XSS or cmd URL parameters to be executed with the privileges of the web server user. This critical vulnerability allows complete compromise of the server.

Remote Code Execution via Unsanitized Input in index.php (Severity: HIGH)

The application is vulnerable to remote code execution. Specifically, the exec function in index.php (lines 3-6) executes the contents of the $_POST["exec"] parameter, which allows attackers to run arbitrary system commands. This can lead to complete server compromise.

RCE Vulnerability via Unsanitized WebSocket Message in ws/index.js (Severity: HIGH)

This vulnerability allows for remote code execution (RCE) because unsanitized messages received via the WebSocket in ws/index.js are directly passed to the eval() function. Specifically, the ws.on('message', msg => { eval(msg); ... }); block on lines 1-12 takes the incoming message without validation, which causes arbitrary JavaScript code to be executed on the server. An attacker could exploit this to gain complete control of the system.

Hardcoded Reverse Shell Backdoor in stdin/index.js (Severity: HIGH)

The application contains a hardcoded reverse shell payload within the stdin/index.js file, lines 1-12, creating a significant security risk. Specifically, the payload variable contains a bash command that, when executed via exec, attempts to establish a reverse shell connection to attacker.example.com on port 4444. This would allow an attacker to gain unauthorized remote access to the system if the code is ever executed.

Hardcoded AWS Credentials in upload.php (Severity: CRITICAL)

Compromised AWS credentials can lead to unauthorized access to cloud resources, potentially resulting in data breaches and service disruption. The file upload.php contains hardcoded AWS access key ID (AKIA2T2SJH6M76LT25T4) and secret access key (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) on line 17, which allows anyone with access to the file to manage AWS resources associated with the compromised account. This exposure allows attackers to perform actions within the AWS environment, such as accessing data in S3 buckets or launching EC2 instances.

SQL Injection Vulnerability in test.php (Severity: HIGH)

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in test.php, allowing attackers to potentially read or modify sensitive data. Specifically, the login function in test.php directly incorporates the $username and $password POST parameters into an SQL query without proper sanitization or parameterization, which causes arbitrary SQL code to be executed. An attacker could inject malicious SQL code via the username or password fields, leading to unauthorized data access or modification.
