Description

Admin backend story catalog blind SQL injection via post parameters.

Affected Version

DedeCMS <= 5.7.160

POC

Login to admin backend management.
Request to /dede/story_catalog.php with GET parameter action=uprank and POST parameters rank_1=1’+and+sleep(3)+and+’1, this payload will lead to a time-based SQL injection.
Requires PHP ≤ 5 and MySQL ≤ 5.5, and the story component contains at least one record in database.
In the source code of /dede/story_catalog.php, when the GET parameter action is uprank, the POST value which the key contains rank_ will be directly joined into the update SQL statement, which lead to SQL update injection, finally the joint statement will be passed through mysqli_query, but this function only return boolean value when the query string is an update statement, that is why this is a blind injection.
